Lead Generation - All Screened, Qualified & Waiting for You

- We specialize in providing your company with pre-screened and qualified leads

Let our marketing agency develop you a lead generating website, ads, and postcards, and more to capture targeted prospects seeking additional information about your products, services or business opportunities.

Here is a great example of a lead generating 'classified ad' we ran for an independent distributor of Arbonne. She was selling an anti-aging product and had samples she could mail out:

Anti-Aging Secrets Exposed
Try it and see the results for yourself
Leave name & address on 24-hr
recording to receive your FREE
samples via mail. 444.444.4444

The lead generating ad work extremely well…without being specific, we received well over 30 names and addresses (considering the ad ran for one-week and the costs was only $47 bucks for the entire week); and while she sold many of the anti-aging products at $200 a pop, she got even more customers to buy other Arbonne products.

Why was this ad effective…. let's break it down!

Everybody loves a secret and giving away free samples of the product didn't hurt either. If we didn't put the following: "Leave name and address on 24-hr recording" we would not have received nearly as many calls. How do I know? Because we tested it.

By allowing people to leave a message on a recording, it took away the fear most people have of being sold by somebody on the other end of the line. Since they now know that no one will be on the other end of the phone trying to sell them something, they'll call. That's why this works so well…

It's our job to sell them…when the people left their names and addresses, we sent them the samples, along with a sales letter…several purchased right away. When we sent a second letter to the same group of people 7-10 days later, a small number of them purchased (remember, we're talking about a $200 product here). On the third mailing, we sent a Arbonne catalog, something we didn't do the first time. Can you guess what happened? Many of them actually picked up the phone and called the distributor to purchase other beauty related products they saw in the catalog, and I'm not talking about 1 or 2 people either!

The ad above cost about $47 dollars to run for 7 days…this was in one of those counties that had their own newspaper, with a population of about 90,000 people. It should be said that the classified ad ran in the 'health & beauty' section of the newspaper.

I don't mean to babble on, but I want to give you as much information as possible. In another example, we ran a roommate matching service. We grew the business strictly through classified ads. Here is an example of the ad we ran.

Find a Local Roommate
to Share the Expenses

We match them, screen
them, & do background
checks. Call 24-hr recording
for more info: 404.404.4040

What did they hear on that voice recording? Well…it was a 7 minute pitch explaining exactly what it was we do…I know, some of you are thinking who in the world would listen to a 7 minute spill on the telephone?

Well…anybody looking for a roommate would listen to a 20 minute spill if it lasted that long. The people looking to use the roommate service wanted all the information they'd need to make a decision on whether or not to use the service.

The 7-minute pitch discussed how we match them and screen them. It also discussed the type of background checks performed. It also explained how much they'd pay and it also discussed some very basic safety issues.

We charged $150.00 bucks to be split amongst the 2 roommates once we made a match.

Now…after listening to a 7-minute pitch, it told them to leave their name and telephone number if they were interested in moving forward. And guess what? Those who left their names and phone numbers didn't have to be sold. They were already sold! And, we didn't have to go over the same spill 30 times a day…. the voice recording did it for us and we simply checked messages twice a day.

How Much Does Lead Generation Cost?
The leads we generate range anywhere from $5 to $25. Price is based on the measure of difficulty in generating the lead. The easier the lead is to get, the lower the cost. Due to the nature of setting up different types of media to generate leads, we generally charge a setup or maintenance fee.
