You're always one phone call too late.
You hear about it too late
By the time you hear about a job, the GC's sub list is already set. The early bird gets the contract.
Cold calls with no context
You're dialling blind: wrong stage, wrong builder, wrong timing. Every wasted call is money you'll never get back.
No system to manage it all
Leads live in your head, a spreadsheet, or sticky notes. Reps chase the same jobs, drop the ball on follow-ups, and nobody knows who owns what.
Four tools. One unfair advantage.
Your trade. Your window. Every hot permit.
BuildMapper pulls permits across BC, Alberta, and Ottawa within hours of filing and scores each one for your trade's timing window. Roofing? You see the permit at framing. Electrical? You get flagged at permit pull, before rough-in. You're always first.
Research done before you pick up the phone.
Ask Scout who owns the project, which GC is running it, what they've built before, and what to say. Scout drafts your first email and lines up the five leads that need your attention this morning.
Your roofing window: week 10–14.
The whole crew, one board.
One board with five stages: New / Contacted / Quoted / Won / Lost. Every rep owns their leads, every card shows the next move, and the manager sees the whole week. No more duplicate calls. No more dropped leads.
Follow your best builders. Never miss a pull.
Add a GC or builder to your watchlist. The moment they pull a new permit, you get a heads-up, before anyone else even knows the job exists.
Contractors are closing deals. Here's the proof.
Wespac Mechanical grew their contract volume 135% year-over-year after adopting BuildMapper to track mechanical permit pulls across the Lower Mainland.
2000 Plus Insulation closed $200,000 in new business within their first 30 days, by catching insulation-phase permits before competing subs were even called.
