Need Help and Ideas for Getting Business Leads

    Hello,

    Does anyone have suggestions on where to go online to get business leads that work? I've been doing the internet thing for a long time and its time for me to focus and make some real money!

    I see people out there doing consulting, web design, and development with less quality and making more money. The difference I see is they are getting leads, they are marketing their business!

    That's where I need some help and guidance -- so if anyone out there knows how I can get good leads I'm very interested.

    Someone suggested vendorseek.com, has anyone else heard of them or used them to get leads? What has been your experience/success? And again, all suggestions are welcome.

    Thanks in advance,

    Vanessa

    We used vendorseek for a while. We got a good quantity of leads from them, but the conversion of those leads vs. ones we generated ourselves were 1 : 10. Also, the leads that we did convert were much more difficult than normal to actually convert. I wouldn't really recommend them unless that is still cost effective for you. Obviously every business will have a different experience, but we're not new to converting leads, and they were not cost effective for us.
