They confirmed that insuranceleads was an affiliate, that's all. We pieced together what they do as we bought leads from both shops.

I think I have heard this from another source as well.

$3 a pop for shared leads with insuranceleads.com I wish! I pay $8.75! I'd kill for $3

Didn't think that $3 figure was so accurate...

healthagent · 05-28-2009, 03:19 PM

Oh, the association members pay $3 so I just figured that was the going rate.

somarco · 05-28-2009, 07:48 PM

At $3, that should tell you something.

GreenSky · 05-28-2009, 09:37 PM

So they sell leads for $3 each? How many agents do they sell those leads to so that they can make a profit?

Probably 8 but in YOUR area, only 2 or 3!

They told me today they sell up to eight. Of course...some of those eight might sell to another eight...and they might sell...

8x8x8...

Multiplying like cockroaches . . .

I think they are sub par. I will not be using them again, unless they offer them to me for $3. John, if I join your association, can you get them for $3 a piece? What does a guy have to do to join?

I'll have to do some research - typically members get a modest discount - like $1 a lead so this doesn't smell right. Members do indeed get $3 leads but if you're saying the going rate is $8 then something is not right.

moonlightandmargaritas · 05-29-2009, 09:39 AM

I doubt seriously that any internet lead vendor would ever lie to you...

CHUMPS FROM OXFORD · 05-29-2009, 09:48 AM

It sounds like those $3 leads are just overflow oversold leads that are actually worth about $2.

Markingriffin · 05-29-2009, 10:59 AM

They sent me a ton of $100 gift cards to give out to agents a couple of days ago. I've heard a couple of agent brag about them and I'm dying to know if they are really good leads or not. They seem to have a ton of different kinds of leads.

Has any of you used the $100 Gift Card for free leads and if so, how did it work for you?

I have been taking $3 leads from insuranceleads.com for about a year now. My ROI is one sale for every 15 leads. I am very happy with them. Contact me if you would like to know some of the nuances that must be used to make these leads successful.

That's not ROI, that's a "closing ratio" (which means nothing).

ROI is how many dollars in commission did you get back versus how many dollars you spent (ex. $6:$1).

CHUMPS FROM OXFORD · 05-29-2009, 11:28 AM

I believe those $100 gift cards are available to anybody. Just sign up with them (and pay $200) and they give you $100 worth of leads.

The gift cards do not allow you to use the free leads unless you pay them money in advance.

healthagent · 05-29-2009, 11:46 AM

...been trying to do some comparison regarding vendors and the conclusion is price is not much of a factor. Simply put, $8 leads are not better than $6 leads.

Because of that the $3 leads have been sought after since a lot of members have not seen any worse of a closing percentage over their $8 "filtered" leads.

Worse yet is buying those $8 shared leads onto to find that the vendor is selling to other vendors and you still have 12 other agents calling.

I'm not a shared lead fan at all but from the data I've compiled my advice is don't pay a nickel more for a shared lead then you have to.

Something else to note; the health filters don't really seem to be working out too well since almost across the vendor industry they seem to be denying legitimate credits for uninsurables.

somarco · 05-29-2009, 11:57 AM

That's quite generous of you.

Is that the guy on LinkedIn who was bragging about how great the leads are and had a "limited number" of free gift cards to give out?

Just sign up with them (and pay $200) and they give you $100 worth of leads.

They also put $100 in "free" leads in your account for every referral who signs up. Almost a mini MLM . . .

denying legitimate credits for uninsurables.

Uninsurables may become a thing of the past once Mr Fixit changes health care you can believe in.

Show some respect. That would be President Fixit.

Remember that 50% of the voters did not vote for him and other 50% will wish they hadn't.
