When selecting an outside source to generate sales leads the
number one factor to determine is how that company markets your
industry to generate a lead, NOT the price they are charging.
Here is why.
What to avoid:
Misleading advertising
Many lead vendors simply produce vague, misleading
even false advertisements and sell these leads to any debt relief
company no matter the debt service they offer.
The most popular trick is what we call "The Dream Blend".
The advertisements used promote the benefits of all debt relief
solutions as if they are the benefits of just one solution. For
example;
Get a free debt relief consultation today:
- One low monthly payment
- Lower your interest rates
- Stop all creditor phone calls
- Reduce your debts by 75%
As you can see these are the benefits of credit counseling, consolidation
loans and debt negotiation mixed together. The consumer expects
one thing and when you call, they get something totally different.
Some vendors do this on purpose, but many do this because
they do not understand the debt relief industry. By misleading
consumers and selling the lead many times over to you and your
competitors they can offer lower prices and still make a huge profit.
You lose, the consumer loses and they win.
Lead Churn from Lead Brokers
Suppose a consumer completes
an online request from an ad like the one described above. The
lead vendor sells this lead to two more lead vendors, and they
in-turn sell them to 4 more lead brokers and they sell them to
their clients. Within 24 hours the lead could have been sold
40 times or more! You are told these are real time exclusive
leads, but your closing ratio suggests otherwise. We know you
have experienced this, you have to know the origin of your leads
to be sure of their quality.
Affiliate programs
Surprisingly even some respectable lead generation
services use affiliate programs. Once again this falls under the
category of misleading advertising. There is no way to control
or verify how the affiliate generated the lead, when it was generated
and how many times it was sold. Never buy leads from a lead company
who generates leads through affiliate programs. You are simply
rolling the dice.
How Lead Discovery is changing
the game
Lead Discovery seeks long term business relationships with professional
debt relief companies. We know we have a responsibility and commitment
to both the consumer and our business partners. The fundamental
difference between us and them is that we act as if we are part
of your company. We are accountable for the performance of the
leads, therefore we must deliver qualified leads that are informed
and seeking exactly the same service you are offering. This is
how we do it:
Lead Discovery spends over
$1.8 million dollars annually marketing our debt relief and home foreclosure prevention properties. We do all of our marketing
in-house so we know the origin of every lead. The advertisements
used in these marketing campaigns are a direct result of discovery
meetings with our lead
alliance partners and are fine tuned with the
in depth performance data we have collected over the past 7
years. Our advertisements directly reflect the services you
are offering.
Our website properties are full of relevant information. We are
not here to take sides on any particular debt relief solution.
We clearly explain the benefits and drawbacks to each debt relief
solution. This way consumers qualify themselves to become
your lead. When they talk to you they will have a fundamental
understanding of your solution to make an informed decision quickly.
- We do not mix the benefits of all debt relief solutions into
one advertisement.
- We do not buy leads from or sell to lead vendors
- We do not participate in any affiliate program
- We do not use marketing lists.
- We do not use email campaigns nor telemarketing.
- We do not use pop ups or pop under ads

Instead we place our targeted advertisements on the Internet's
most respected properties. Our experienced marketing team uses
a suite of analytical tools to monitor, analyze and refine our
campaigns in real time. This gives us the ability to ensure we
are producing the highest quality leads at the lowest cost possible.
