How the Multi-Channel Engine Works
1. B2B Directory SaaS
Contractors pay a flat £9.99/mo subscription fee to activate their directory stubs, claim profile SEO leads, upload portfolios, and secure their "Vetted & Claimed" trust badge.
2. Pay-Per-Match leads
When clients query the Matchmaker platform, matching contractors are introduced. Unclaimed provider profiles pay a small £2.50 lead release fee to unlock the client's direct contact link.
3. Escrow job cuts
Every transaction clearing through the TradeLink Pay invoice portal is held in escrow. Upon project sign-off, we deduct a 3.5% clearing commission cut before disbursing funds.
4. DIY Hub AdSense & Affiliates
The YouTube-integrated How-To guides capture high-volume search traffic. We monetize via standard display network ads and affiliate referral cuts on recommended tools and materials.
5. Logistics Splits
Heavy surplus orders on SiteSurplus calculate instant haulage rates. Pushed to our Man & Van logistics cluster, we pocket a 15% markup commission on every delivery trip.
6. Trust Audits & Insurance
Contractors purchase public liability policies via Simply Business referrals, and clients secure certified mechanic callouts (+£149) or escrow guarantees (+£29), generating up to 30% affiliate splits.
