Internet origination and online marketing produces very unique customers. Customers that require an extraordinary sales team. However, transitioning from traditional retail or wholesale origination to Internet sales can be enormously expensive if you just jump into buying real-time Internet leads. The best way to train new Internet sales members and still put real sales on the board are aftermarket Internet leads.
What are Aftermarket Leads?
Aftermarket or aged leads are the great secrets of the online lead business.
These are genuine, motivated customers that have gotten lost in the high pace call center environment. Generally, these leads are generated in the same way as $20-$40 online leads are generated (i.e., search, display, PPC, and email marketing). However, due to the massive inefficiencies of lead filtering, delivering, and follow-up, millions of borrowers are tossed to the floor. In fact, some studies say that number is as high as 60% of all Internet leads.
This means big opportunity. Even for a green Internet sales force. And, the price makes it an enormously profitable marketing strategy with lots of room for mistakes.
How Can They Help Train Debt Counselors?
This is why aged debt leads are such a great idea for new hires and ongoing training. At less than $1 a lead, a sales person can afford to lose a few deals as they are getting used to calling on customers, sorting out new debt settlement programs, or transitioning into the debt industry.
Most buyers of aftermarket debt leads are effectively implementing their aged leads into a training, volume filling, and ongoing performance improvement strategy. This reduces their marketing budget and risk as they more quickly ramp up an effective and competent sales force.
Aged Leads May Become Your Primary Leads
The ironic part about aftermarket leads is that because they are often enhanced with quality control and advanced “scrubbing” mechanisms. You may find that they are better than your real-time leads and certainly more profitable.
Depending on your lead management and sales process you may find aged leads to be a better value as your primary lead source.
