If you're researching mySalesman for your fencing business, you're probably dealing with the same frustration every fence contractor faces: spending hours chasing unqualified leads, answering calls from people who want picket fences when you only install chain-link, or worse, investing time in fence estimates for customers who were never serious in the first place.

mySalesman promises to solve this problem by turning your website into a lead-qualifying machine. Homeowners draw their fence on a satellite map, select the style they want, and get instant budget pricing, before you ever pick up the phone. But does it deliver? And more importantly, does it actually help you close more jobs?

In this review, we'll break down what mySalesman does well, where it falls short, and how it compares to Dirt Face for contractors who want to manage the entire sales cycle, not just lead generation.

What is mySalesman?

mySalesman is a lead generation and pre-qualification tool designed specifically for fence contractors who want to increase sales by filtering out tire-kickers before they waste your time.

Here's the core concept: Instead of fielding phone calls from every homeowner who might want a fence, mySalesman lets potential customers qualify themselves on your website. They draw a simple diagram of their property using satellite imagery, choose the fence type they're interested in (wood, vinyl, chain-link, etc.), and instantly receive a budget pricing range, something like "$3,500 to $4,200."

Let's be clear: **This is not fence estimating software.** mySalesman doesn't calculate material lists, labor costs, or create detailed quotes. What it does do is identify which leads are worth your time, so you can focus on customers who are ready to move forward.

What mySalesman Does Best: Lead Generation

Turn Your Website Into a Lead Qualifier

The biggest strength of mySalesman is how effectively it captures and qualifies leads directly from your website. The tool is white-label, meaning it carries your branding, not theirs. When homeowners land on your site, they see a professional, easy-to-use tool that makes them feel like they're getting real value.

Built for Non-Technical Homeowners

mySalesman is designed so that even the least tech-savvy homeowner can use it. They don't need to know square footage or understand fence terminology, they just draw on a map and pick what they like. This low barrier to entry means more leads actually complete the process instead of abandoning it halfway through.

Instant Budget Pricing Ranges

By providing a price range (e.g., "$2,800 to $3,400"), mySalesman sets realistic expectations upfront. Customers who see the range and move forward are pre-qualified, they're not shocked by your actual quote later. This dramatically reduces wasted time on price shoppers.

Save Time by Letting Customers Self-Qualify

Instead of spending 20 minutes on the phone explaining what you do and don't install, mySalesman lets customers filter themselves. If they want a decorative aluminum fence and you don't offer it, they'll figure that out before they ever call you.

Add-Ons for Multi-Service Contractors

If you also install decks or roofing, mySalesman offers add-on calculators ($25/month each) that work the same way. This makes it a versatile tool for contractors who offer multiple services.

Where mySalesman Falls Short

It's Only Half the Solution

mySalesman excels at generating qualified leads, but it cannot create actual estimates. You still need separate fence estimating software to turn those leads into detailed quotes with material lists, labor costs, and professional proposals.

To complete the loop, mySalesman has partnered with ArcSite, a CAD-based estimating platform that allows you to create fence estimates from the leads mySalesman generates.

The problem? This two-platform approach gets expensive fast.

The Real Cost: $300/Month

While mySalesman's pricing looks reasonable at $175/month, you'll need to add ArcSite at $125/month if you want to actually create estimates and close jobs. That brings your total to $300/month just to handle lead generation and quoting. Beyond the cost, you're also managing two separate platforms, two logins, and two bills, a hassle that can lead to data-entry errors and wasted time.

For fence contractors, that's a significant monthly expense, especially compared to all-in-one platforms that handle both for less.

No Full Project Lifecycle Management

Even with both tools, you're still missing invoicing, payment processing, and job tracking. You'll need additional software subscriptions (or spreadsheets) to manage projects from estimate to final payment.

mySalesman vs Dirt Face

Why Fence Contractors Choose Dirt Face

Dirt Face is a complete lead generation and fence estimating platform that handles everything mySalesman does, plus everything mySalesman can't do.

What you get with Dirt Face:

Lead Generation (Just Like mySalesman):

• White-label website integration with your branding
• Satellite map drawing tool for homeowners
• Instant budget pricing ranges to pre-qualify leads
• Easy-to-use interface for non-technical customers

Plus Additional Design Flexibility:

• Work from blueprints to create detailed fence designs
• Draw fence diagrams on a blank canvas when no aerial imagery is available
• Multiple input methods for different project types

Complete Estimating (What mySalesman Requires ArcSite For):

• Turn website drawings directly into detailed quotes
• Automatic material list calculations
• Labor cost tracking and profit margins
• Professional PDF estimates
• No need for a second platform or additional monthly cost

Full Project Lifecycle Management:

• Invoicing and payment tracking
• Credit card processing
• Job scheduling and management
• Everything from lead to final payment, in one platform

The Bottom Line: With Dirt Face, you get the same powerful lead generation as mySalesman, plus full estimating, invoicing, and payment processing, all starting at $99/month. That's less than mySalesman alone, and a fraction of the $300/month you'd pay for mySalesman + ArcSite.

Final Verdict: Is mySalesman Worth It?

Yes, if you're already using ArcSite and just need better lead generation for your website. The integration is seamless, and mySalesman excels at pre-qualifying homeowners before they ever contact you.

Consider Dirt Face if you want to get the same functionality as mySalesman for less or you want a complete solution that handles lead generation, estimating, invoicing, and payments in one platform, at a lower monthly cost. For most fence contractors, Dirt Face delivers better value by eliminating the need for multiple tools and subscriptions.
