You win when a household is about to move. Get there first, with a price in their hand before they've opened the comparison sites.
A property that has just been listed is a household planning a move - and a move can't happen without a van. These owners start researching removal firms early, so you can get in with a price while they're still planning, long before they'd normally shop around. That head start is what wins the job.
Why they need you: a home coming to market means the owner is planning to move - and moving day needs a van. A fresh listing is the first sign of a move, long before the sale is agreed.
Your edge: reach them early while they're planning and researching, so you're the quote they keep when the sale goes through.
Why they need you: lofts, garages and whole houses get emptied during a move. Offering clearance alongside the van turns one lead into a bigger, higher-margin job.
Your edge: bundle it in your first quote and you win more per customer from the same contact.
Volume and timing are everything. Fresh new-listing alerts, filtered to the areas you actually cover, so your estimator only quotes real jobs.
Removals is a timing business: the customer's need is genuine but short-lived. Most sellers are stressed and want the move ticked off, so the first professional quote that lands often wins. You need a steady stream of fresh, in-area moves - not a stale list - so your team spends its day quoting homes you can actually win.
Why they need you: every newly listed home is an owner planning a move - and they'll need a removal firm. Getting in early puts you on their shortlist long before they start comparing prices.
Your edge: filter by postcode area, property type, bedrooms, price band and move distance, and reach them before the national firms do.
Why they need you: families often need somewhere to put things for days or weeks. Selling storage alongside the move is an easy add-on at the moment they're already talking to you.
Clearances come from two events: a property being sold, and an estate being wound up. We track both.
A clearance is almost never planned - it's triggered. Either a house has sold and must be emptied before completion, or someone has died and their home has to be cleared for sale. In both cases the family is under time pressure and emotionally stretched, and they want one trusted, insured company to handle the whole thing. Reach them at the trigger, not months later.
Why they need you: a sold house has to be cleared of what the owners aren't taking. Completion creates a hard deadline, so they need a clearance firm they can book quickly.
Your edge: move leads are the #1 screen for clearance - contact the owner early with a fixed price while they're still organising the move.
Why they need you: an estate has to be emptied before the house can be sold or handed on, and the executor - often a grieving relative - needs a sensitive, reliable clearance service.
Your edge: approach the family directly and early; being respectful and first in line wins the instruction.
A move is a packing and storage decision. Be there when it's being made.
Moving forces two immediate purchases: boxes/packing and somewhere to put belongings. Storage and packing are rarely shopped for on their own - they're decided at the moment of the move. If you're not visible then, the removal firm or a national brand takes the add-on instead.
Why they need you: every move needs boxes, packing and often short-term storage. It's the single easiest moment to sell those services because the need is immediate and unavoidable.
Your edge: offer a packing-and-storage bundle in your first message and you convert one lead into a larger job.
Two ways to fill your order book: private planning applications and public construction contracts.
Building work starts with intent - and intent leaves a paper trail. Before anyone lifts a spade, an owner submits a planning application (extension, new build, conversion): a signed signal that there's a project, a budget and a timeline. Public construction is the same story - the buyer has money ring-fenced and a deadline to award. Reach the project at application or procurement stage and you're quoting before the rest of the market has even heard about it.
Why they need you: they can't build without a builder. An application means they're serious and funded, and they'll need someone to price and deliver the job - often before the plans are finalised.
Your edge: quote at design stage, shape the build, and win before competitors even know the project exists.
Why they need you: councils, NHS trusts and government must publish contracts before they award them. The budget is already approved and the deadline is fixed - it's guaranteed, funded demand.
Your edge: get the notice early and you have time to prepare a proper bid instead of scrambling.
Roof work rides on extensions, conversions and new builds - all of which start with a planning application.
Very few roofs are replaced in isolation. Most roofing work is one package inside a bigger project - an extension, a loft conversion or a new build - and those projects are visible in planning data long before they start. Reaching the homeowner while the project is being planned means you're quoting the roof at the right moment, instead of turning up after the main contractor has already appointed a roofer.
Why they need you: every extension, conversion or new build needs a roof. The owner will appoint a roofer at some point - your job is to be in the conversation before that decision is made.
Your edge: target extension, loft and new-build applications in your council areas and quote early.
This trade lives and dies on planning applications. Get them the day they're filed.
Loft conversion and extension firms only have work when homeowners decide to expand - and that decision shows up publicly as a planning application. By then the owner is committed, funded and thinking about who will build it. It's the earliest point at which you can reach them, and it's before the 'recommended a builder' word-of-mouth stage that usually wins the job.
Why they need you: they've applied to build, so they need a company to design and deliver it. They'll be gathering quotes in the coming weeks - often clueless about who to use.
Your edge: get in first with a helpful, specific quote for their exact project type and you become the benchmark they judge others against.
Win the instruction at the very start - most planning applications need drawings and professional input.
Most planning applications can't proceed without drawings, plans or a professional assessment - so applicants are actively looking for an architect or surveyor. Many haven't appointed anyone yet when they apply. Monitoring new applications puts you in front of the project before a designer has been chosen, and lets you shape the scheme from day one.
Why they need you: from full plans and new builds to extensions and listed buildings, applicants need design and surveying expertise to get approval and to build.
Your edge: approach applicants early, offer a clear scope, and you can win the design instruction - and often the project management that follows.
New builds and extensions leave gardens to design. Planning tells you where.
Landscaping usually follows someone else's project: a new build finishes, an extension opens onto a wrecked garden, or tree works are applied for. Owners need a garden designed, planted and maintained once the building work is done - and tree and landscaping works also appear directly in planning data. It's a second contract from the same event.
Why they need you: new builds and extensions create fresh outdoor space that needs designing, planting and maintaining, and tree works need a qualified contractor.
Your edge: time your approach to just after the build completes and offer a full landscape + maintenance package.
When a grant of probate is applied for, the family is choosing who to instruct. Be first.
When someone dies, the estate has to be dealt with legally: probate, inheritance tax, the will, the property. It's a professional instruction, and families under stress almost always choose the first firm that approaches them with clarity and empathy. Most people have no solicitor lined up, so whoever reaches them first and demonstrates competence usually wins.
Why they need you: someone has died and their family must administer the estate. Many have never done it before and need guidance - from probate itself to IHT, wills and the sale of the property.
Your edge: we alert you the moment a probate application is filed, so you can reach the executor early with a sensitive, professional approach.
Families need practical and professional help the moment probate begins.
Probate is the trigger for a wave of practical needs: the estate must be administered, the home cleared and maintained, finances and investments sorted, and arrangements made. A probate application signals a family in the middle of one of life's hardest moments who needs sensitive, trusted suppliers. Trust and timing - not price - win here.
Why they need you: someone must administer the estate, and families often need professional help with estate administration, financial affairs, funeral arrangements and the property.
Your edge: reach the family quickly and gently; being the most human, responsive firm wins the work.
A probate property is a listing waiting to happen. Reach the executor before another agent does.
Probate almost always ends with a property being sold. The family - usually an executor with no agency relationship - needs to value and market the home, often while grieving. Agents who make a warm, professional approach early win the instruction before any competitor is even on the family's radar.
Why they need you: an estate property must be sold. The executor will choose an agent - and often just picks the first credible one to call.
Your edge: contact the family early with a no-pressure valuation offer and you can secure the instruction before the house is even ready.
Newly incorporated companies choose an accountant in their first weeks - often before their first sale.
Every new company must deal with accounts, payroll, VAT and tax from day one - it's a legal requirement, not a nice-to-have. Directors are usually first-timers who don't have an accountant yet and are actively looking. That makes incorporation the single best moment to win a long-term client, because there's no incumbent to displace.
Why they need you: they have legal filing, payroll, VAT and tax obligations and no accountant lined up. Most are choosing one in their first few weeks.
Your edge: target the industries you're strongest in and approach at incorporation - you become the obvious, easy choice.
New businesses need a website, branding and customers. Time your pitch to week one.
A brand-new business can't trade without a web presence and a way to get customers. Website, branding, SEO and ads are among the first purchases a start-up makes - and at that point they have no agency, no loyalty and no existing provider. It's the cleanest opportunity in B2B marketing.
Why they need you: they need a website and leads to grow, and they haven't been courted by anyone yet. Most haven't even chosen a domain strategy.
Your edge: pitch a clear, productised offer (site + launch marketing) to new companies filtered by industry - you'll reach them before any agency does.
New companies need IT from day one - and the public sector buys IT constantly.
Every new company needs email, devices, software and support immediately - often sorted in a panic during week one with no provider in place. On the other side, the public sector buys IT and digital services on long, published contracts with approved budgets. Both are strong, funded demand - one from start-ups, one from government.
Why they need you: they need managed IT, software and support to operate, and they're choosing a provider now - usually with none in place.
Your edge: target the sectors you serve best and approach at incorporation with a simple onboarding offer.
Why they need you: government, councils and the NHS must buy IT and digital services through published contracts - with the budget already approved.
Your edge: get the notice early and you have time to build a winning bid rather than racing the deadline.
Every new business needs cover and staff. Reach them at incorporation.
A new business often can't legally operate or take on work without insurance, and as soon as it grows it needs staff. Both needs arise at - or just after - incorporation, when the directors are setting everything up and have no broker or recruiter yet. It's the moment to build a relationship that can last for years.
Why they need you: commercial insurance is often a legal requirement, and growth creates hiring needs - both without an existing provider.
Your edge: approach early with a tailored quote or a first-hire plan and you can become their long-term partner.
Public bodies and growing companies buy these services on contract.
Facilities services are bought on contract, not one-off. Public bodies must procure cleaning, security and maintenance through published tenders with approved budgets, and new companies setting up premises need a provider from week one. Both are recurring, contract-based work - exactly the kind of predictable revenue that grows a business.
Why they need you: councils, schools, the NHS and government must contract cleaning, security and maintenance services - the budget is already committed.
Your edge: bids are won on early preparation; getting the notice the day it's published gives you the edge.
Why they need you: new businesses need cleaning and security from the moment they open, usually with no provider in place.
Your edge: approach at incorporation and offer a simple monthly contract - recurring revenue from a brand-new client.
NHS, councils and government buy care and transport services on public contracts.
Health, social care and patient/transport services are commissioned by the public sector, which is legally obliged to publish contracts before awarding them. That means the demand is guaranteed and the money is already ring-fenced - you're not persuading someone to spend, you're competing for work that must be given out.
Why they need you: NHS trusts, councils and government must procure these services - the need is real and the budget is committed.
Your edge: we surface the opportunity the day it's published; early notice means a properly prepared bid.
