Moving is the trade where exclusivity means least, because the homeowner's own intention is to compare movers. A lead sold as exclusive to you is still a homeowner who will telephone three more companies this afternoon, and no contract can change that. No source in this record publishes a moving price.
What exclusivity can and cannot buy
An exclusive moving lead guarantees that the source sold the enquiry once. It does not guarantee that the homeowner contacted only you, and in this trade they almost certainly did not. That makes the exclusivity premium a smaller purchase here than in emergency trades, where being the only company called is genuinely decisive, and it should be priced accordingly.
What actually decides a moving job
Speed of quote, clarity of the estimate and whether the survey is in person or by video. Movers who quote within the hour with a fixed price win a disproportionate share of shared enquiries, which is why operational responsiveness is worth more in this trade than the difference between an exclusive and a shared lead.
Long distance against local
A local two-bedroom move and an interstate relocation differ by an order of magnitude in value and are usually sold at one price. If a source can filter on distance and volume, that is the filter worth paying for. Nothing in this record publishes a moving rate, so filters and speed are the terms to negotiate rather than the price.
Questions people ask about exclusive moving leads
What do exclusive moving leads cost?
No source in this record publishes a moving price. The nearest published anchor is $80 to $120 for a shared high-intent lead in a remodelling trade, on jobs typically worth more than a move.
Is exclusivity worth paying for in moving?
Less than in emergency trades. The homeowner intends to collect several quotes, so buying the enquiry once does not stop them contacting your competitors.
What wins a moving job?
A fast, clear, fixed quote. Movers who respond within the hour win a disproportionate share of shared enquiries regardless of who else received them.
Should local and long distance leads cost the same?
They should not, and they usually do. If a source can filter on distance and volume, that filter is worth more than a discount on a blended feed.
