How To Generate Leads

Lead generation is often seen as the dirty work of building a profitable business. Although it is hard work, it is the life blood of your business and a skill you need to learn. If you didn't have leads that turned into prospects that turned into customers, where would your business be?

Lead generation can be expensive, but that depends on what route you choose to take. There are simple, effective ways to generate leads that cost and arm and a leg if you are willing to work to learn the techniques.

Lead generation is looking for clients and customers and you get those leads in different ways and different degrees of potential. For instance there are cold leads, people you have not had contact with. Warm leads are people who have responded to a request (whether it's to respond back to you, or people who have visited your website or blog). Responding to you is called opting in. Hot leads are people who have responded, joined your team or have become customers. You need to follow ALL your leads, but each one has a different way to follow through. That is a skill you need to learn.
