Sub referrals and client handoffs

Sub referrals and client handoffs

General contractors refer electricians, plumbers, and specialists they trust — without forwarding a contact card photo.

The problem

Sound familiar? These are the pain points people search for before they find a better way.

  • Your contractors & handyman networks partner contacts live in texts, photos, and forgotten group chats
  • A client asks for a plumber or electrician — you waste minutes hunting the right number
  • You cross-refer with other trades but have nothing professional to hand off
  • Backup subs aren't marked when your preferred partner is booked solid
