A Contractor Consultants Alternative: One Flat Build, Nothing That Renews

The Contractor Consultants got the diagnosis right: percentage-of-salary recruiter fees make no sense for construction companies, and flat pricing is the fix. If you've read their pitch and nodded along, we're not going to argue with it. Here's the part to look at closely before you sign anything, with them or anyone: what happens after month one. Their model is a done-for-you recruiting service that runs as a setup fee plus a monthly subscription that renews until you stop it — and the hiring machinery they run for you lives on their side of the fence while you subscribe. Our model ends where theirs begins. One flat $4,000 build: we write the job ad for your trade and market, wire up automated SMS screening that answers every applicant within minutes (with the consent language SMS recruiting legally requires), set up the interview pipeline with scorecards and reminders, and hand you ready-to-post ads for the places trade workers actually look. Then we hand you the keys. The ad copy, the automation, the applicant database — yours. Nothing renews, because there's nothing to renew. Compare the guarantees side by side too, because they're worded differently for a reason. A refund window with conditions attached means you pay first and argue later. Ours is simpler: three qualified candidates in your first 30 days, or you don't pay. In writing, before a dollar moves. If you're already comparing flat-fee recruiting options, you're most of the way to the right question. The last step is: rent the machine monthly, or own it outright? The application below takes 45 seconds. If it's a fit, you'll see the exact funnel we'd build for your company on a 20-minute call.
