Six trade umbrellas, each with a dedicated IVR menu. One licensed professional per category — exclusively yours the moment you claim it.
One call connects you to a vetted, licensed Victoria tradesperson — no directories to scroll, no comparing five bids.
One number. A quick voice prompt asks what trade you need — electrical, plumbing, renovation, and more.
Our smart IVR connects you directly to the verified professional for that trade in Victoria.
No middleman, no bidding war. You talk to one qualified pro who wants the work and knows the area.
Our IVR bot handles every inbound homeowner call — routes by trade umbrella, connects to the right partner, and logs the lead. You just answer your phone.
Callers press 1–5 to select an umbrella category, then get connected live to their trade's partner.
Full call tracking dashboard — see how many leads hit your line each month and hold us accountable.
One platform number, five umbrella menus, 25 direct lines. Adding a new partner takes minutes.
HomeStars shares your leads with 4–6 competitors. Agencies charge thousands with no guarantee. We give you one territory — yours alone.

One licensed professional per trade category. Once your spot is secured, no competitor touches it — ever.
Every inbound homeowner call routes directly to you. No logging in, no bidding, no "checking the portal."
We deliver a minimum number of qualified leads in your first 90 days or you get 30 days free. Skin in the game — ours.
* Minimum lead volume is set per trade at sign-up — high-demand trades (electrician, plumber, HVAC) carry a higher guarantee than niche specialty services. Always confirmed before you commit.
Every new partner and homeowner review strengthens the platform. As we scale in Victoria, your lead volume scales too.
Early partners lock their rate permanently. As the platform adds value, pricing moves up. Your rate never does.
Your retainer is a marketing expense. At $6,000/year, that's real money back at tax time — effectively reducing your real cost by 30–40%.
After every connected job, homeowners get an automated SMS with your Google review link. Review generation tools charge $50–150/month separately. Included.
Your listing on the platform is your presence. Homeowners searching for your trade in Victoria land here and reach you directly — no separate site to build or maintain.
Every tool in this list costs money separately. With VicTradePros, it's one flat monthly rate — with exclusivity none of these can match.
