Online Leads: Gold Mine or Waste of Time?

Signing up to receive online leads is all the rage. So, why is it working for some but not for others? We’ve got some answers.

Allan and Carrie Trust know that paying for online buyer and seller leads can be an effective strategy for building a real estate business. For the past four years, the husband-and-wife sales team, at RE/MAX Direct in Boynton Beach, contracted with four companies that provide them with leads throughout Palm Beach County and beyond. In 2005, they paid about $80,000 in fees, received 11,000 leads, sold $23 million in properties (much of that directly from the online lead generation) and earned referral fees from other associates.
