How the Business Model Works

  • Inbound Leads Only — Customers contact you first. No cold calling required.

  • 35-Minute Quotes — Run a short, structured in-home measure and quote.

  • Upfront Deposits — Collect a 50% deposit upon sale to keep cash flow positive.

  • Hands-Off Fulfillment — Your supplier or installer handles the work. You keep the margin.

  • Low Overhead Pressure — No staff, no stock, no storefront. You control just one lever: advertising spend.

Annual Net Target

$176,000+ Net Profit. What a lean, low-volume schedule yields when you focus on premium-margin sales over a high-volume grind.

The Margin Math

$1,538 Profit Per Sale. $676 profit per quote. 44% conversion rate (52% in 2026) following a structured 35-minute in-home quote.

5 Hours Per Week. 5 quotes per week, includes extra time for beginners, basic admin, upfront deposits, and localised travel.

Weekly Pipeline

Real results over 1 year are:

This isn't passive income or a "get rich quick" scheme. It’s a simple, repeatable business model built around short, high-value conversations with customers who have already contacted you.

Scale up anytime using ad spend, to 10 or 15 quotes per week
