What is a Lead?
Leads can be generated many different ways and they differ in their “convertibility” into a sale. Some leads are from potential customers who are not ready to buy your products right now but are doing their own research about the possibilities available to them. Other leads are from potential customers who are much closer to taking action and making a buying decision.
How do you get Leads?
Leads are all around you and become available when you know what to look out for. They can appear in every day conversation and they can appear from purpose built websites like this one and the job of a good business owner is to:
- Know what type of lead you are looking for, and
- Know how to convert that lead into a sale
