Our Story

Built by Service Business Owners,
for Service Business Owners.

Local Lead Portal exists because the big lead directories don't actually work for the businesses they claim to serve. We're fixing that — one county at a time.

Why We Built This

Every service business owner we knew was running into the same wall. We were buying "leads" from the big directories — often more than $50 a lead — and too many of them went nowhere. In our own experience, the same lead had frequently gone to several other contractors before we called, some had clearly been sitting around a while, and plenty never picked up the phone at all.

* Competitor pricing, fees, and policies shown above are estimates compiled from publicly available industry reports and contractor surveys as of August 2026. None of these companies publish a fixed rate card; actual rates are set dynamically and vary by trade, market, job value, and account terms. Local Lead Portal is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Angi, HomeAdvisor, or Thumbtack. Contact them directly for current pricing. Local Lead Portal makes no representation that this information is complete or current.

We thought there had to be a better way. So we built one.

Local Lead Portal delivers real phone calls from real homeowners — exclusive to one contractor per county. You don't compete with three other plumbers for the same lead. You answer your phone, you do the work. And if a call isn't a real lead, you dispute it and don't pay. That's the deal.

The Team

Meet the Founders

Brandon Turley

Co-Founder

Brandon has spent years in the service industry watching contractors get squeezed by overpriced, over-shared leads. He started Local Lead Portal to build the platform he'd actually want to use as a business owner — exclusive territory, transparent pricing, and the freedom to dispute any call that wasn't worth paying for.

Justin McCalvin

Co-Founder

Justin handles the technology side — the directories, the call routing, the dispute system, and the AI that scores every call. His focus is making sure that every dollar a contractor spends on Local Lead Portal turns into a phone that's actually worth answering.
