How many leads do I need per week?
Work backwards: jobs needed ÷ close rate = quotes, quotes ÷ lead-to-quote rate = leads. A solo operator wanting 6 jobs a week at a 40% close rate needs about 15 quotes and 23 leads.
What's a good close rate for service quotes?
30–50% is normal early on. Same-day quoting is the single biggest lever — quotes sent within an hour of the request close roughly twice as often as next-day quotes.
