Screening sequence

The rate card now makes the sales gate explicit so paid placement stays separate from endorsement claims and lead-routing promises.

Download screening fields

1. Market fit

Confirm the partner serves the city, county, and ZIP coverage tied to the requested partner placement.

2. Trust check

Collect website, review links, licensing or registration status where applicable, and insurance status.

3. Rebate capability

Verify the team can discuss pre-approval, model numbers, invoices, permits, inspections, and utility paperwork without promising approval.

4. Placement decision

Approve paid visibility only after category fit, response expectations, disclosure language, and consent-based routing boundaries are clear.

Ready-to-invoice gate

Use this before sending an invoice so the placement has proof, disclosure, billing, and fulfillment controls instead of a loose sponsor promise.

Download invoice gate CSV

Market hold selected

City, state, project category, package tier, monthly or annual guide, and requested start date.

Next: Match the requested slot against sponsor-inventory.csv and note any category or market conflict before quoting.

Partner proof received

Company website, service-area description, license or registration status where applicable, insurance status, and review links.

Next: Store proof with the account record and keep all public wording factual until review is complete.

Placement wording approved

Sponsor name, display URL, service category, coverage area, disclosure text, and no-guarantee acknowledgement.

Next: Prepare the sponsored block using disclosure language; avoid preferred, certified, guaranteed, or verified-result claims.

Fulfillment controls ready

Invoice contact, billing cadence, renewal date, screenshot destination, change-request contact, and cancellation terms.

Next: Invoice only for disclosed visibility. Do not sell live lead routing until secure consent capture and partner routing are active.

Close plan

Use this after initial partner fit to convert a market hold into a compliant sponsored placement with proof, disclosure, and fulfillment steps.

Download close plan CSV

1. Pick the market hold

Owner: Rebate Caddy

City/category slot, monthly or annual guide, service area match, and competing category conflicts.

Service fit

service area match

Partner explicitly serves the requested city, nearby ZIPs, and the project category.

Avoid selling a placement the contractor cannot fulfill.

Trust proof

license insurance review links

Business can provide license or registration status where applicable, insurance status, website, and review links.

Keeps partner placement separate from unsupported endorsement claims.

Rebate capability

paperwork support

Team can explain who handles pre-approval, model numbers, invoices, permits, inspections, and utility forms.

Screens for partners who can support rebate-aware homeowner intent.

Response readiness

lead response window

Partner states a normal response window and intake owner before any live lead routing is discussed.

Prevents paid placement from creating unmanaged homeowner expectations.

Disclosure fit

sponsor language approval

Partner accepts sponsored-placement disclosure and no-guarantee language for rebates, tax credits, and savings.

Protects legal/ad quality while keeping the offer sellable.

Sales objection matrix

Use these responses to keep partner conversations specific, compliant, and tied to the current offer instead of overpromising leads or rebate results.

Do you guarantee leads?

No. Partner placement buys disclosed visibility on relevant market pages. Future lead routing is consent-based and only available after forms, screening, and fulfillment controls are ready.

Protects against unsupported lead guarantees while keeping the paid placement offer clear.

Why sponsor before traffic is proven?

The launch rate reserves a city/category placement while Rebate Caddy expands content, internal links, sitemap coverage, and local rebate pages around that market.

Frames early sponsor pricing as placement reservation, not a performance promise.

Can we be listed as preferred?

Only after service-area fit, licensing or registration status, insurance status, review links, response expectations, and rebate-paperwork capability are reviewed.

Keeps sponsored visibility separate from endorsement language.

Can we pay only per booked job?

Not for the current placement program. Rebate Caddy can discuss referral terms later, but the introductory placement is a monthly or annual sponsored market placement.

Preserves the simple monetization path while secure routing readiness matures.

Can you promise rebate eligibility?

No. Program rules change and final eligibility must be verified with official sources. Sponsors should help homeowners document equipment, timing, permits, invoices, and paperwork responsibilities.

Reinforces legal/ad quality and homeowner trust.
