Just wondering the ratio of good solid leads to unproductive downright bad leads you have experienced coming through the lead system???
I was soooo excited that I was qualified to get leads in Dec for the first time ever....but what a let down:
3 leads total and here's the outcome:
1- wants to do a catalog show but wants to collect orders for 7 weeks!!! Yep that's correct- not a typo- 7 weeks! Its a Feb show.
2- wanted a can opener- right that second- which I had and was willing to sell. Lead info said she was 15 miles from me and actually she was over 40 miles and she said she would need to find someone closer. Got nothing from that!
3- info stated she was interested in the biz- I called and she ranted raved :grumpy: at me for over three minutes about how "over priced" are items are!!! She said she could never sell our items and wasn't interested and we should compare our prices to Amazon and Walmart and I should tell my supervisor (she was clueless) and on and on she went....til she was repeating herself and I hung up!
So all you experienced lead catchers...Is this pretty typical or do I just have BAD luck? Is it 3 bad for every 1 good? 5 bad for every 1 good?....
I know they can't all be bad...because 6 years ago I was HO lead!
