Put your estimator’s route on the order
Start with the last five ADU jobs your team would happily build again. List their property ZIP codes, how often your estimator had to travel there, and whether your crews would return for warranty work. Use that list to draw your first territory. Add expansion ZIP codes separately so the provider can quote the core area on its own.
For example, a South Bay design-build team might welcome homeowners in San José who still need drawings, while a second crew accepts only permitted projects. Giving both crews the same “Bay Area ADU leads” order makes it hard for intake to know who should take the first call.
A sample brief you can adapt for a pricing request
We want pricing for 50 exclusive detached ADU inquiries. Start with project properties in ZIP codes 98103 and 98117. We handle design through construction, so homeowners can approach us before they have drawings. Please quote attached-unit and basement-conversion inquiries separately if available.
Our estimator has three site-visit slots per week for this order. Send new inquiries to our intake coordinator. Please confirm the rate, expected weekly delivery range, how we request a pace change and the review terms for a property outside the agreed ZIP codes.
Replace the example ZIP codes, project types, appointment capacity and intake contact with your own. Ask for the rate and delivery estimate for your core territory before agreeing to add another city.
Work backward from the appointments you can hold
If your last 40 inquiries produced eight held visits, your observed rate was one visit per five inquiries. Three open visit slots a week would support about 15 new inquiries a week at that rate. If some slots are already reserved for referrals, subtract them first. Confirm pacing with the provider, since real-time homeowner inquiries can arrive unevenly.
