You already know the game: pay per lead, race unlicensed competitors to the bottom, and hope the client remembers what was verbally agreed to when something goes wrong. ONP fixes the parts of the job that have nothing to do with your craftsmanship.
Create Contractor AccountAngi, Thumbtack, and HomeAdvisor charge you to compete — you pay just to get a shot, win or lose.
You carry the license and insurance costs. Unverified competitors don't, and still get to bid against you.
Verbal scope changes and handshake agreements leave you exposed when a client disputes what was promised.
To be direct: you already bid blind on ONP, same as anywhere else. The difference isn't lead exclusivity — it's that you're not paying per lead to find that out, and every contractor across the table is actually verified.
We'd rather tell you now than waste your subscription. ONP probably isn't the right fit if:
Verified veteran-owned businesses get a discount on the standard subscription, a Veteran Owned badge on every bid, and featured placement in the contractor directory.
One flat subscription. No per-lead fees, no long-term contract. Pricing shown when you sign up.
