Does www.servicemagic.com generate locksmithing leads?

Question

I have the feeling that  is assessing the virtuesof branching out to the UK.ServiceMagic allows customers to define a building or similar project,which then gets forwarded on a pay-per-forward basis to contractors inthe field required by the end-user. The contractors can then contactthe customer and attempt to nail the deal.The end-user can leave feedback about the contracor, and similar toe-bay, a contractor can build a reputation.This is probably an old hat for you guys and girls from the US. Myquestion is: Does this work? Does it engender worthwhile leads for alocksmith?Best regards from sunny London,chris

the local small city I am in, 'signed up' to something similar, to do all the city's purchasing... best bid gets the 'contract', and the web site got a percentage.. which DID sound like a good deal.. BUT, after a year, the web page site went belly up...the costs of the (in your case) Servicemagic, exceeded the income they were generating.. it MIGHT work, BUT, I would want a 'long time frame' track record, PLUS a lot of references to check to see if anyone had problems especially with payments.

Hi,I gave SERVICE magic my credit card and they took $99 lickety-Split.  Thiswas 11 months ago.  I haven't received a SINGLE dollar of income from anyLEADS they sent to me.  They did send 6 leads over the last, almost year,but all amounted to  A BIG ZIP.  Live and learn.  I have contacted my stateAG's office about it all.--Shiva-- wrote:

Probably won't help unless they made you a gaurantee of a specific number ofleads or revenue. They are sending you leads. Just not very many or very viableones.
