One 66-Member Training Community Has Been Paid More Than $600,000 by a Single Pay-Per-Call Network

MUNDELEIN, Ill. — 13 August 2026

Lead Smart Inc, a US pay-per-call and lead-generation affiliate network specialising in home services, is publishing the payout history of one identifiable group of its affiliate publishers: the members trained by Abhishek Sood through his paid LeadsXPro community.

Networks routinely publish testimonials from their best publishers. Almost none publish what a defined group of publishers was actually paid, over what period, and how many of them earned nothing. These are the numbers for one such group.

The payout history

Period	Paid to publishers	Converted calls	Publishers paid
June 2026	$59,704	1,713	42
July 2026	$50,410	1,502	42
1–12 August 2026	$16,056	584	40
2026 to date	$321,269	10,869	63
Full year 2025	$246,627	8,708	71
All time	$614,878	21,573	94

2026 is the group’s step change: with four and a half months of the year still to run, its members have already been paid more than 30 percent more than they earned in the whole of 2025, and June 2026 alone brought $59,704.

Networks publish testimonials because testimonials cost nothing. A payout history is a different kind of claim, because it can be wrong — someone can check it, and someone can hold you to it. Publishers deciding where to send their calls deserve the second kind. Matthew Zivkovic, Founder, Lead Smart Inc

The part most income claims leave out

Of the 111 publisher accounts opened by community members, 94 have ever been paid — and in any given recent month, only about 40 were paid at all. The gap between 111 accounts opened and 40 earning in a month is the real shape of this business, and it is the number that testimonials never carry. A minority of the group earns consistently; several members have individually passed $20,000 in lifetime payouts; many opened an account, built nothing that ranked, and earned nothing.

Lead Smart’s response to that asymmetry is to publish the economics before the work starts: minimum expected payouts across 417,983 ZIP-code and service combinations in 27 live verticals, so a publisher can check what a call is worth in a specific market before registering a domain.

How the group operates

Sood, who also runs the site-building tool localsites.pro, builds single-location service websites at volume rather than a small number of large regional sites. He reports a team of ten, roughly 100 single-location sites built, an exact-match-domain site reaching position seven in Google within a month of launch, and $375 earned from a single converted call. He also sells ranked starter sites to other operators for $500 to $1,000.

The approach fits the way pay-per-call payouts are structured: a converted call is worth the same to the buyer whoever generated it, so a publisher competing in a single suburb for one service can be paid the same per call as one competing statewide. Lead Smart’s published payout data shows an all-vertical median of $32.50 per call, a 90th percentile of $177.00, and net payouts reaching $497.50 for a single water-damage call.

Why the network is publishing this

Lead Smart has spent 2026 publishing data that networks usually keep private: its full ZIP-level payout coverage, named publisher case studies with the bad days attached, and a $500 bonus paid to a publisher for disclosing a complete and deliberately unflattering income report. This release extends that to group-level payout history.

The argument is commercial rather than sentimental. Publishers can only price a decision they can see, and a network that publishes the proportion of its publishers who earn nothing is making a claim its competitors cannot copy without producing the same data.
