| When you are a home insurance broker or agent you spend a lot of your time chasing good leads that you can sell to. The difference between cold calling and following up on a genuine hot lead is enormous. Even the smoothest salesman will probably agree that a hot lead is ten times easier to close than a cold one. It really comes down more to not losing the sale and closing than to dealing with objections and making good points. The easiest sales are of course those that are initiated by the prospect themselves such as when a customer picks up the phone and calls you because they saw an ad somewhere. The problem is that for many companies, advertising and marketing in newspapers or on television is too expensive when you have to compete with the top dogs of the industry. So for many small or medium sized brokers or agents, generating good leads is still something that needs to be done. If you are reading this article, chances are you are currently considering buying your home insurance leads online. You may not know exactly how these leads are generated or how good they are? Online home insurance leads are generated by companies who specialize in attracting prospects with a high buying temperature. The internet offers good opportunity for doing this as hundreds thousands of people go online to find home insurance everyday, but don't know where to look. Companies offering home insurance leads run big networks of information sites about home insurance thus preselling insurance already. When a customer arrives at one of these sites and are ready to make a buy, they fill out a “get quote” form with their contact information and other criteria. This is the lead that you as an agent or broker can purchase. What is special about these leads, is that they are very fresh and can be contacted within minutes of purchase. The best companies that offer home insurance leads operate in real time, meaning as soon as the information is verified, it is made available to the broker. So it is actually possible to buy a lead and make the call while the prospect is still surfing the website. It goes without saying that these leads convert at a high rate. There are other good benefits from purchasing leads online. One of them is the high degree of customization that these companies offer. First of all there is no need to sign up for an expensive membership or pay a huge deposit in advance. You can simply sign up and log in to the site and begin buying leads. Most companies do not have a minimum purchase, so you can try a few leads first to see if they are worth it. Another benefit is the possibility of purchasing leads from your target group. You can filter the leads you want to receive by many criteria such as age, geography and income. This is nice to do if you specialize in a certain fragment of consumers.
