How Tradespeople Can Generate More Leads in 2025

4 minutes

In this episode of the UK Lead Generation Podcast, host James Dooley challenges the assumptions trades businesses often make when searching for reliable leads. He opens with a familiar dilemma: with so many platforms promising results, how do business owners know where to actually invest? This sparks a grounded discussion with Kasra Dash, who breaks down why most tradespeople track the wrong KPIs and how this single mistake can drain thousands from their yearly budgets.

James Dooley and Kasra Dash unpack the journey of diversifying lead sources, running small trial periods, and uncovering which channels truly deliver profitable acquisition—not just cheap leads. Kasra Dash highlights the hidden costs behind PPC, SEO, and third-party platforms, while James Dooley walks through real comparisons between Fat Rank and well-known platforms like Checkatrade and Bark. Together, they reveal how a simple internal audit can transform a business’s marketing efficiency and eliminate years of wasted spend.

Listeners will gain a clearer understanding of cost per acquisition, channel-level KPI tracking, and how to identify the platforms that genuinely produce revenue rather than vanity numbers.
To take the next step, James Dooley invites trades business owners to visit FatRank.com and see whether they qualify for performance-driven trades lead generation.
