Are you wasting hours giving free estimates to tire-kickers?

In this episode of the Handyman Success Podcast, Jason Call (Handyman Marketing Pros) sits down with Allen Lee (Honestly Handyman + Handyman Journey Coaching) to break down the exact estimating system Allen uses to close more jobs, protect his time, and boost profits. Discover:

• How Allen qualifies leads before they even talk to his estimator
• Why 90% of his quotes are given over the phone
• The power of a $100 consultation fee (and how it weeds out bad clients)
• Scripts and tools used by his CSR to book real jobs fast
• Why valuing your time is key to a profitable business
• How tech is shaping the future of handyman estimating

Whether you're a solo operator or growing a team, this episode gives you actionable tips to stop wasting time—and start closing more jobs. RESOURCES MENTIONED:
