Still Thinking of Buying Leads?

I have got to imagine that most of the people on this site are 100% against buying leads, but for those of you who are still thinking about buying leads or are being told by your company that purchased leads are the best way to build a business, I wanted to share the following article that I read today from master prospector Max Steingart.

A Case AGAINST Buying Leads!

If you are currently, buying leads (or thinking about it) to build your
business and/or recruit more people into your business… then you really
need to read this NOW!
 
Here’s why:
 
Each and every week I meet, and speak to, at least five hard working
networkers who are still buying leads as a way to grow their business…
and failing miserably in the process!
 
I don’t want you to make this same mistake, as this is a slow path to
business failure.
 
Buying leads is a reactive marketing process… and to be successful in
your business you need to be proactive.
 
Let me explain:
 
Before you buy another lead… you need to understand the process in which
the leads you’re buying are generated.
 
The fact of the matter is that most networking leads are generated by
websites designed to attract people who are surfing the web for
“opportunities”.
 
Now this might sound like a hot prospect… but let’s be clear about one
thing:
 
If someone is surfing the web for opportunities they are not going to
submit their information to just one site.
 
On the contrary, they are going to stop by dozens of sites… and request
information from ALL of them.
 
Meaning, even if you are buying “Exclusive” leads… these prospects WILL
be contacted by several IF NOT dozens of other companies… including your
competition.
 
To make matters worse… a vast majority of these lead generating
companies “sell” the leads to several companies… for either emailing or
direct mail purposes!
 
This means the lead that you just bought will soon be bombarded with
junk mail offers… offering ever opportunity under the sun.
 
Now, this is where things start going downhill – and fast!
 
You see, EVEN if you are successful in converting a purchased lead into
a new recruit… this new recruit will constantly be lured away by all the
other “opportunities” – most of which are promising the moon and more.
 
As you can imagine, once your new recruit hits a bump in the road – they're
gone!
 
Not to mention the fact, that converting purchased leads is more difficult…
as there is a big chance that they will be comparing your opportunity to
all the other offers they are receiving or more likely reject you immediately
as they are sick of the onslaught of phone calls.
 
So here’s an easier way…
 
GENERATE YOUR OWN LEADS!
 
By generating your own leads… you control the whole situation.
 
Best of all, if you use the step-by-step process I fully lay out in my
“Endless Leads” system… YOU are the ONLY opportunity that your prospect
is EVER considering!
 
And, since YOU are generating the lead… your prospect’s information is
never sold to anyone!
 
Plus, your competition is never going to be able to steal them from
under you.
 
Bottom line: stop buying leads… when you can easily generate your own.
 
And, with my “Endless Free Leads System” you will discover the surefire
methods to create an endless supply of HIGH quality, HIGHLY targeted
leads… WITHOUT:
 
 - A Website!
