Leads
See every customer inquiry in one list, move it from New to Won, reply from the Inbox, convert it to a job, or block it.
Leads live at https://mybuildx.com/leads. They’re for General Contractor accounts. Each row is a customer who asked for work: who they are, the trade, the status, where the lead came from, and when it arrived.
What you can do
- Filter by Status: All, New, Contacted, Qualified, Won, Lost. Each button shows a count.
- Filter by Source (Referral, Website, Phone, Marketplace) and by trade.
- Respond to open the lead’s conversation in the Inbox.
- Move a lead forward with Mark contacted, Mark qualified, and Convert to Job.
- Block a lead you don’t want, and Unblock it later.
Where leads come from
- Customer requests routed to MyBuildX. When BuildX routes a customer request to MyBuildX, it’s matched to up to 5 contractors by trade and location. The lead lands in the best match’s Leads list. Each matched contractor also gets a bid invite and a notification. Matching contractors who haven’t claimed a profile get an email invite to claim the lead.
- Leads you or the assistant add. You can ask Ask BuildX to add a lead (for example, a phone call you took).
Quote requests sent from a ContractorsNearMe profile, a buildx.pro calculator (Get Free Quotes) or Ask BuildX (Request Quotes) don’t appear in MyBuildX Leads. buildx.pro emails those requests to up to 3 matched contractors at the email on their directory profile, so keep that email current.
Work a lead from New to Won
- Open https://mybuildx.com/leads and press New to see fresh leads.
- Press Respond. The Inbox opens with a Responding to lead banner. Press Start conversation if there’s no thread yet, then write your reply. See Inbox.
- Back on Leads, press Mark contacted.
- When the scope, timing and budget fit, press Mark qualified.
- When the customer says yes, press Convert to Job. This marks the lead Won and creates a job on Jobs.
The action button changes with the status: a New lead shows Mark contacted, a Contacted lead shows Mark qualified, and a Qualified lead shows Convert to Job.
Block or unblock a lead
- On a Contacted or Qualified lead, press Block. The lead moves to Lost.
- To undo it, filter by Lost and press Unblock. The lead goes back to its earlier status.
Good to know
- There’s no separate “Mark lost” button. Block is how a lead becomes Lost.
- Leads have no notes field or lost-reason field.
- You can’t create a lead from a form on this page. Ask Ask BuildX to add one.
- If you’ve installed the app and turned on alerts, new matched leads also send a phone alert. See Home.
