How Do Fleet Install Leads Work?

Where do fleet install leads come from?

Leads come from fleets, resellers and telematics providers who contact API Signal directly about GPS, dash cam and telematics install work around the country.

API Signal has installed fleet GPS, telematics and camera systems for 35+ years. Fleets, resellers and telematics providers contact us every week about work all over the country. Rather than let those jobs die on the phone, we hand them to install companies who do.

How does an install lead reach my company?

You get on the list once, we match a job against your coverage, we call you with the scope and fee up front, and you quote the customer yourself.

• You get on the list. Fill out the form once — your states, your cities, what you install, when you can work.
• A job lands in your area. We match it against your coverage before anyone calls you.
• We call you first. Scope, timing and the fee are agreed up front, before you touch a vehicle.
• You quote it. Your number, your paperwork, your terms with the customer.
• You keep the customer. We are not standing between you and the fleet afterward.

Is this subcontract work or a 1099 job?

Neither. You are not an employee and not a subcontractor — you quote the job at your own number and the customer stays yours.

• Not employment. You are not on our payroll and you do not report to us.
• Not exclusive. Work with anyone else you like.
• Not a subcontract where we own the customer and you take a day rate.

Who is the API Signal installer network for?

Established GPS, dash cam, 12-volt and telematics install companies with their own crew, trucks and insurance.

Established install companies with their own crew, their own trucks and their own insurance — shops that already do 12-volt or telematics work and want more of it without chasing sales. If you are an individual tech looking for a job, our careers page is the right door.
