New lockdown guidance which states that that door-to-door selling is to be stopped and in-home sales are to be done remotely in areas in any tier of restrictions is a cause for concern to installers .

But the current climate does not have to stop you from winning the work you want during this time – particularly as the demand is out there .

That ’ s the view of Andy Royle , co-founder , and Director of Leads 2 Trade .

The UK ’ s leading provider of double-qualified sales leads from its comparison quote websites for companies operating in the home improvement industry is getting thousands of enquiries a week from homeowners looking for windows , doors , conservatories , and conservatory roof replacements .

“ Since the focus has fallen onto our homes during last year ’ s lockdown , demand for home improvements has been sky high as homeowners spent their money on their homes instead of holidays , and this is continuing ,” said Andy . “ We are

seeing a huge number of enquiries a week and installers are missing out , particularly as we make it was easy as possible for our members to win work .”

“ While it ’ s good news for installers that fittings for home improvements can continue during lockdown , the ban on door to door selling , particularly when demand for home improvements is high , will hit many installers hard . Door to door selling makes

up a big percentage of how regional companies and smaller installers obtain leads and having that avenue of blocked off will be a concern , but we can provide them with all the leads they need .”

When setting up an account with Leads 2 Trade installers can decide which postcodes and products they want their leads to cover , and they only pay on a per lead basis . Leads are phone qualified by Leads 2 Trade ’ s

experience in-house customer service team to guarantee the consumer has a genuine interest and requirement and is wanting a quotation , saving installers time and money .

The lead is supplied with full accompanying notes including material type , colour preference and number of items , with a preferred time of day for the installer to contact the homeowner so they are expecting the call . The Stockport-based company has also scrapped the traditional model used by so many other lead providers of supplying a consumer with up to four no obligation quotes from installers from their local area , with its leads only going to two installers , meaning the consumer gets the comparison quote they require and the installer a better chance of winning the work .

As an introductory offer for the start of 2021 , Leads 2 Trade is offering installers that sign up to its network two free double qualified sales leads when they open a new account .
