The window replacement industry is expanding at a rapid pace, with more and more homeowners opting to replace their windows for better energy efficiency, aesthetic appeal, and home value. 

As the industry grows, so does the competition among window replacement companies. Lead generation has become paramount to stand out and to ensure long-term success. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll delve into the largest and most popular window lead generation services and compare their pros and cons to the newly revamped Fixr platform.

What to know before buying window and door leads

Before deciding to buy window replacement leads, here are a few things you should know about cost, profitability and lead details.

How much do genuine window replacement leads cost?

A raw lead can cost around $70 from major traffic sources. After quality assurance, a genuine new window replacement lead costs about $140.

How much do exclusive leads cost?

Expect to pay at least $160 for exclusive replacement window leads. Shared leads should cost less.

Profitability of window leads: Fixr's real-world example

Let's take Fixr as an example, commonly used for window installation leads. Consider buying Duo and Trio leads (shared with one or two other contractors):

Number of leads purchased per month

100

Average cost per lead (Duo)

$100

Total spend on leads per month

$10,000

Average revenue per project

$16,000

Average cost of labor and materials per project

$8,000

Gross profit per project

$8,000

% of leads that convert to projects

10%

Number of new projects won

10

Lead cost per job

$1,000

Gross margin in new projects

$80,000

Additional profit per month

$70,000

This results in a 700% ROI, even with 90% of the leads not converting. The economics of buying high-quality window leads is compelling.

What to ask before buying from any lead source

Before you buy leads from any source, be sure you have a thorough understanding of the following details. Ask about them in conversations with account representatives, then verify the details on your own if possible:

  • Traffic sources: Know where the leads are coming from (e.g., organic search, paid ads, etc.). Often, fraudsters claim to use paid ads on major platforms but are just reselling old leads. Search for their ads on these platforms; if you can’t see them, they are probably not telling the truth.

  • Lead accuracy: Ensure the leads are verified by a QA process and are relevant to windows, not other industries or home improvement projects.

  • Lead exclusivity: Some platforms share leads with multiple contractors; know the sharing extent.

  • Legal risk: Ensure you comply with TCPA regulations to avoid legal issues. Those offering cheap leads are usually reselling old leads, meaning the TCPA opt-in has expired. If this is the case, you are exposing yourself to fines of up to $250,000 by calling them.

Pros and cons of major ad platforms for window lead capture

Still thinking about running your own ads? Consider the reality of managing major ad platforms for a specialized trade like window replacement:

Platform

Pros

Cons

Google Ads

High-intent searchers

Extremely competitive, requires massive budgets and sophisticated filters to avoid waste. Geotargeting is often inaccurate.

Social Media

Massive reach, great for visuals

Low-intent audience. People are there to socialize, not buy windows. Can be very expensive for direct response.

Traditional Media

Reaches an older, non-digital audience

Incredibly expensive and almost impossible to track your ROI. Did that radio ad really lead to a job?

Appointments and Warm Transfers

Skips the initial follow-up

Very expensive. It takes about 3 verified leads to set one appointment, so you pay 3x the price.

Pros

  • High volume, capturing 90% of the search market

  • High-intent traffic, with users specifically looking for window and door installation assistance

  • No lock-in contracts

Cons

  • Ineffective for small advertisers who do not have sophisticated traffic filters used by the largest buyers

  • Pay-per-click is less measurable than pay-per-lead

  • Geotargeting to buy leads in specific service area can be spotty

Pros

  • Wide reach with advanced targeting features

Cons

  • High costs

  • Social media has a lower buying intent compared to search

Pros

  • Highly visual, suitable for showcasing work

Cons

  • Relatively expensive

  • Less effective for direct-response advertising

Pros

  • Broad audience reach, attracting a diverse range of new customers, including those not digitally connected

  • Often trusted by older demographics who are not internet-savvy

Cons

  • Advertising can be quite expensive

  • Unlike digital platforms, tracking the ROI is challenging

Pros

  • Great option for businesses with strong sales teams but less prowess in initial lead engagement

Cons

  • Window replacement appointments cost around three times as much as leads because it takes about three verified leads to generate one set in-home appointment

The right lead source drives growth for your window replacement services

Choosing the correct lead generation company or digital marketing strategy for your window replacement business is a pivotal decision that affects your customer inflow and overall business growth. There is something for everyone, with options like Fixr for those who want an all-in-one solution, traditional media for a broader audience, and appointments and warm transfers for smaller companies that struggle with working leads.

What’s critical is finding leads — and moreover, high-quality leads that will most likely turn into profitable jobs. Understanding the pros and cons of each platform can aid in making an informed decision that aligns with your business goals.
