A Painting Lead Just Came In On Thumbtack. Here's The Next Ten Seconds.

A pre-listing repaint has a realtor and a deadline behind it. The homeowner books the first painter who sounds organized. Call back the next day and the estimate slot is already taken. Thumbtack owners know the rule: the customer messages five pros and hires whoever replies first. Pay-per-lead makes a slow reply doubly expensive — you bought the lead, and you handed it to a competitor.
