Trades who switched from Rated People

"Rated People sold the same job to me and two others. JobFilter's leads are from planning data — no one else even knows about them yet."

Roofer, Glasgow

"Credits on Rated People add up fast. £39 flat for JobFilter and I get five times the signal types. The comparison isn't close."

Plumber, London

"I got a council contract lead from JobFilter worth £18k. That type of lead doesn't exist on Rated People — they only do homeowner jobs."

Electrician, Leeds
