Rated People charges ~£15 per shared lead. Try Review Bloom builds your Google presence for £297/month — exclusive leads, no per-lead fees, reviews that rank you permanently.
Rated People sends the same lead to 3–5 competing tradespeople simultaneously. You pay ~£15 for the contact before you even know if the customer is serious.
Tradespeople who've built strong Google profiles describe a fundamentally different dynamic — customers who searched specifically for their trade, saw their reviews, and called without comparing anyone else. Those customers are less price-sensitive, more likely to hire, and more likely to leave a review.
Rated People puts the power with the customer and the platform. Google Maps puts the power with the tradesperson who has built the best local reputation.
One builds something permanent. One you rent indefinitely.
