How to stand out.
Learn moreOn Thumbtack, you create a profile and let the customers reach out. Tell us about the jobs you want — what kind, what size, when and where. When your preferences match a customer’s job details, you show up in their search results. If they’re interested in your business, they’ll get in touch. You only pay when an actual customer chooses to contact you specifically.
No mismatches, no sifting through leads that don’t fit your business needs. Every customer that reaches out will have a job that exactly matches your targeting preferences.
Claim a confirmed job near you. Or reach out to a customer who hasn’t heard back from a pro yet — you can check out their job details and see if you’re interested. If you’re looking for extra jobs or prefer to find your own leads, the Opportunities tab is the place to look.
You’re in control, with the ability to set maximum lead prices, customize your budget, and prioritize certain jobs.
Simplified budgeting.
Set a weekly budget for all of your direct leads. You can always adjust it to make sure you never spend more than you want to.
Choose your own max lead prices.
You won’t pay more than this cost per lead on Thumbtack — and sometimes you’ll pay less. You can customize your max lead price for each service you offer.
Get competitive.
In addition to having a great profile and response time, setting higher max lead prices can help you be more competitive and get more leads.
Control your overall spending.
Based on your max lead prices and your market, we’ll suggest an overall weekly budget to help you meet your lead volume goals. But you can always set a custom budget.
Our Thumbtack Quality Commitment is designed to give you the best chance at winning the job.
Limited competition
We limit customers so they can only reach out to a few pros at a time. You can even see the number of pros a customer contacts right on the lead.
Phone number guarantee
All leads and bookings where the customer reaches out to you directly come with phone numbers. Now, you'll always have a way to get in touch, right from the start.
Our refund policy is designed so that when things go wrong, we can quickly make them right.
Whether you want to shine in search results or get the fastest matches, we have tools to help you grow your business the way you want.
