Close rate, via speed-to-lead
For remodeling & construction
“We bid it, we send it, and then we just wait.”
Markster runs your lead response, bid follow-up, referral cultivation, and CRM as one operated system, so a quote request never goes cold and a sent bid never goes unchased. A named Markster operator owns the cadence; you price and close the work.
The bid black hole
A job under contract runs to a schedule. A bid you sent last month runs on hope.
A job under contract
- A signed scope, a schedule, and a project manager
- Change orders documented and approved
- Walkthrough, punch list, and sign-off
A bid you sent
- A quote request that sat two days before anyone called
- A proposal sent, then silence from both sides
- Designers and past clients you have not spoken to in months
You do not lose these on price nearly as often as you think. You lose them because somebody else answered first.
How it runs
Your whole growth, operated as one system.
Not software. Not an agency. One operated growth function.
The work of a revenue team, run as eight connected Programs.100+ recurring revenue jobs all in your voice. A named Markster operator owns the result and the cadence; you approve the plan, the voice, and the sequences.

A contractor we operate
From closing about 1 in 5 to closing 3 in 4.
Tyler co-owns Martin Plumbing. The change was speed-to-lead: getting to the enquiry first, every time, instead of when someone got off a job site.
A real result from a live client engagement in plumbing, not remodeling. We show it because the mechanism is the one that decides your bids too; ask us for a reference call.

Get my growth planBuild it, or run it
A growth function is expensive to build and manage.
In-house it’s multiple jobs to hire, ramp, tool, and manage. Most remodeling companies scope Markster against one growth hire, not a full in-house build.

Run it as one system
No headcount, no ramp✓
No separate channel handoffs✓
No contract, cancel any month✓
Target missed after ramp: fee waived, capped at 60 days✓
This is for you if
- You win the job when you are in front of the homeowner
- Quote requests and sent bids go unchased when you are on site
- You want lead response and follow-up run without hiring an office manager
Not a fit if
- You compete purely on being the cheapest bid
- You want volume over job quality and margin
- You expect guaranteed contracts regardless of the market
Construction and remodeling questions
What company owners ask first.
Will this bring in jobs we cannot schedule? +
No. The plan is built around your crew and schedule capacity. You approve the job types, the service area, and the pace before anything runs. When the calendar fills, the cadence slows.
Do you replace our estimating or project-management software? +
No. We operate around the tools you already use. Your bids, job history, contacts, and photos stay yours.
Do you price or send the bids? +
No. We run the response and the follow-up around your bids - the fast first reply, the sequencing, the reminders, the CRM record. You price the work and you close it.
How fast is the first response? +
Speed-to-lead is a target we agree with you up front and then operate to, not a slogan. The plan call sets the number your market and your team can actually hold.
What about referrals from designers and architects? +
That is usually one of the first plays. Cultivating and staying in front of your referral sources is part of the system, and you approve the list and the wording.
What does it cost? +
It is fit-based, not one-size. Most owners scope it against one office or sales hire, not a full team. A simple test: if one additional job a quarter would not comfortably cover the fee, we are probably not a match yet.
Our guarantee
Stop losing bids to whoever called back first.
We agree the target, the ramp period, and the acceptance criteria up front. If Markster misses the target after the ramp while you hold up your end, your monthly management fee is waived until we recover the miss, capped at 60 days. Pre-paid, no contract, cancel any month. A named Markster operator owns the result and the cadence; you approve the plan, the voice, and the sequences, new plays always come to you first, and you can steer or veto anything, anytime.
