How To
Generate Leads Online
Anybody in business must know how to
generate leads online or offline. Having a
business is about building relationships with people. It
is through these relationships that we earn our
customers and prospects trust. Once we have their trust,
then many of these customers and prospects will be more
willing to purchase our products and join our business
opportunity.
Below are ways
in which you can start generating qualified leads.
1. Create A Lead Capture Page: Your web site should
be easy to navigate and have information about your
company, products, or services. Capture customer
information through a form that asks them questions
about their needs. A price quote form is a good way to
do this. You will receive an email with the potential
customer's contact information.
2. Setup An Email Autoresponder: To signup for an autoresponder, potential customers simply enter their
email address. Depending on the service you use, the
customer may have to confirm their email address by
clicking a link in an email received after signing up.
You can offer people an incentive for signing up, such
as a discount or free product.
3. Use a tell-a-friend script: Using some programming
code on your web site, visitors can let their friends
know about your company. They'll enter the email
addresses of their friends, who will receive an email
about your site.
4. Promote Your Business On Social Networking Sites:
Social networking sites are popular with many different
types of people. These sites are where people can
connect with one another. You can create a page on these
sites to promote your business. When a customer
"friends" you or "becomes a fan", all of the people in
their network can learn about your company.

How To Generate Leads Offline
1. Promote Your Company At Trade
Shows: Setup a booth at industry-related trade shows.
People can get a more hands-on understanding of your
business. You can capture leads by asking those that are
interested to fill out a post card or write information
on a list.
2. Generate Leads Through Local
Advertising: You can place ads in your local newspapers,
radio stations, or billboards. These ads should direct
people to either call or visit your web site. You can
get more leads if you offer a discount or provide a
special offer when someone mentions the ad.
3. Use Direct Mail To Entice
Customers: Direct mail still works for a variety of
businesses. You can purchase a mailing list that fits
certain specifications, such as neighborhood or income
level, and send your mailing to these people. Be sure to
target demographics that fit your product. The more
targeted your mailing is, the greater response you will
receive.
