Hi John, We no longer offer the option to receive job leads by text (and will check why you were sent this email). Many of our tradespeople found SMS alerts couldn’t provide all the information about a job lead that they were looking for, with a large majority switching over and using our Trades app. For these reasons, we’ve been focused on developing other ways for you to find job leads. When you use our Trades app to look at a job lead, you can see more information about that job than you can in a text. Because of that, it’s easier to decide whether a job lead is right for you. Buying job leads this way also means you can keep on finding work using your phone, rather than needing to be at a desktop computer or carry around a laptop. If you’re yet to try our Trades app, you can download it on iPhone or Android. If you’d like any advice on finding the job leads that match the type of work you’re looking for, please email support(at)ratedpeople.com and we’ll be happy to help. Thanks, Josh Ask an expert team
