The problem

Why most builders lose jobs they should have won

01

You win jobs on reputation. You lose them because no one can see your work.

Your best projects are in a folder on your phone or on an Instagram account that disappears in search. A homeowner planning a $350,000 build wants to see dozens of completed projects. If they cannot find them in 30 seconds, they move on.

02

A $300k build takes months to close. Without a system, leads go cold.

You speak to a lead in March. They are ready to sign in June. Without a CRM tracking where every lead is in the process, you forget to follow up, they feel ignored, and they go with the builder who called them twice.

03

Your best clients are your referral network. You are not using it systematically.

A client who is happy with their $400,000 build will tell five neighbours if you ask them the right way at the right time. Most builders never formalise this. A referral system that triggers at job completion captures those conversations automatically.

04

A $350k job lost because your portfolio was in a phone folder.

When a homeowner shortlists 3 builders, the one with the best-looking website with before/after photos, testimonials, and a project process timeline gets the first call. The others don't hear back. Your phone folder has the same projects that could have won you the job — they just weren't visible when it mattered.

How TradesPro helps

Built for how Builders actually work

Every feature is specific to builder work. No generic website builder noise.

Portfolio gallery built for browsers, not Instagram
Project categories, before and after sections, suburb tags. Homeowners can filter by project type, see the full scope of your work, and understand your style before they pick up the phone.
Long-cycle CRM for multi-month sales
Enquiry to signed contract can take six months. The CRM tracks every lead through enquiry, site visit, quote, follow-up, and won. Nothing slips out of the pipeline.
Project-type pages for specific searches
New builds, knockdown rebuilds, extensions, renovations. Each gets its own page targeting the searches clients actually use. "Custom home builder Sydney" and "home renovation builder Parramatta" are different customers.
Referral system that captures neighbour conversations
After a successful build, every client gets a referral link. New enquiries from referrals are captured, attributed, and tracked. The best leads you will ever get, systematised.
Testimonials with project detail, not just stars
A review that says "Five stars, great work" means nothing. Your site captures client testimonials with project type, suburb, and scope so future clients can see real context.

Questions

Common questions from builders

My projects are $100k-$500k. Does TradesPro make sense at $30/mo?
One extra client per year from your website generates more revenue than every other marketing cost combined. The question is not whether $30/mo makes sense. It is what one new client is worth.
Can I showcase different project types separately?
Yes. New builds, renovations, extensions, and knockdown rebuilds each get their own pages with their own galleries and search optimisation.
How does the CRM handle a three-month quote cycle?
Leads move through stages: enquiry, site visit booked, quote sent, follow-up, won, lost. You see where every lead is at a glance and get reminders when you have not followed up.
I mostly get work from referrals. Will a website actually help?
Yes, for two reasons. First, referrals always Google you before calling. If your site is poor or nonexistent, you lose those referrals. Second, a referral system built into your site systematises what you are already doing informally.
How do I show compliance certificates and licences?
Your site includes a dedicated credentials section where you can display your builder licence number, insurance certificates, HIA or MBA memberships, and compliance documentation. Homeowners look for this before signing a contract.
Can I showcase my project portfolio with before/after?
Yes. Every project can have multiple photos, a description, suburb tag, project value range, and timeline. Clients filter by project type — new build, renovation, knockdown rebuild — and browse your work before they pick up the phone.
How do I rank for 'fixed price builder [suburb]'?
Each suburb you serve gets a dedicated page targeting the exact search terms homeowners use in that area. The pages are structured for local SEO with suburb-specific content, project examples, and testimonials from that suburb.
Can I get referral leads from past clients who built with me?
Yes. After a project completes, the system sends your client a referral link with an offer for their friends and neighbours. New enquiries from referrals are tracked, attributed, and prioritised in your CRM. Your best leads, systematised.
