Aged Leads are as good as you make them out to be. Sure, a lot of them are bunk leads, people yelling at you to take them off your list. But some actually want to talk business. If you set up appointments well, you can make those leads work.

I think I would be VERY concerned with aged leads for a couple of reasons.
I learned this week at LeadsCon that many of the aged leads are also leads that the rest of us turn down from "Affiliates" due to quality issues. Good luck with your CPA on them.
You only have 90 days from the date the lead was submitted NEW to call the person. one cannot Legally call them after 90 days! if they are on a no call list. Of course, unless you like the chance of an upset consumer asking you how you got their number and be willing to pay the penalty.
Raymond: What is the Penalty for that?
The folks Selling these "aged" leads do NOT have the consumer's or agents best interest in mind. Some of you have made the remark: how many folks who went online shopping expected to get "hammered" by agents dialing them over & over in the first couple of days?
Well how do you think they will feel after a Second round of calls?
How do you think the Consumer will feel then when you call?
Do you think this consumer will be Excited about shopping online for insurance again? We are looking at short term gain & not thinking about the Future IMHO.
Does this not concern anyone but me?
Personally, if I was a agent buying NEW leads, I'd ask up front: does your company re-sell your leads as aged leads? If so, me personally, I'd find someone else to buy leads from.
Like Raymond. I too would be interested in the CPA of these leads.
Good luck.
