The Science Behind It

How this calculator works

We model how likely you are to convert a fresh inbound lead based on how long it takes you to respond. The baseline compares your current response time to a realistic best case of 5 minutes. Your actual results will vary by industry and lead quality, but the direction is consistent: speed wins.

Under 5 Minutes

30% conversion rate. You're first to the phone, first in their mind, first to earn the job.

⏱️

30–60 Minutes

14–18% conversion rate. They've already called two other contractors. You're playing catch-up.

📉

Several Hours+

Under 8% conversion rate. The job is gone. They booked someone else. The lead you paid for went to a competitor.
