Lead Generation Software - Any suggestions?

8 replies
I would be grateful to all who can add their 2 cents worth on this one.

I am looking for a lead generation software tool to help enable greater B2B business from lead scraping. I am not selling google maps, places, SEO etc. It is a bricks and mortar enterprise so identification of which other businesses have maps enabled or even a web site has no interest to me.

I have searched and looked at virtually every thread on the forum on this topic and the one that appears on top of the stack in Power Leads Pro. If anyone has any alternative suggestions I would be grateful to read them.

So, ideally I would like something along these lines....
If I enter 'dentist London' in big G I would like to get adwords and organic results for any niche and region I desire.

I would like to be able to point the tool at a domain for it to scrape every email within a remit I specifiy. Yes I appreciate certain limitations apply in relation to SPAM etc but that is not the question I am asking.

All data to be exportable in csv.

The ability to scrape multiple email addresses for the same business by built in data cross referencing facility.

Built in email functionality inc page designer.

From what I have seen, none of the Yellow Pages scrapers covering the UK offer email addresses. Suggestions for ones that do would be useful.

The other alternatives I have looked at include...

Power lead Snatcher
This does not scrape Yellow Pages for the UK (which I need) so this is not suitable.

Places Scout
This does not work for me for a variety of reasons.

Sniper Bot Pro
This offers no UK functionality.

YPS
Only does yellow pages and nothing else and is currently closed.

Yellabot
Again only yellow pages.

Buisness Leads Miner
Again only yellow pages and the reviews were not that clever in comparsion to Yellabot

Any other suggestions would be greatly welcomed.

    You might want to check out www.InternetShadow.com -- it works in the UK, allows you to get local leads, as well as allows you to get organic and ppc results as well. You can also do some other advanced filtering and such too.

    I've been selling that for a couple years and continuously updating it. In fact, we're just about done with a new version (free update) too. Feel free to pm me if you have questions.

    There isn't any that comes close to PLPX - and with a even NEWER version to be released in 4 weeks Power Leads Pro X20 - It's not even close mate.

    I have seen a WSO recently of just copycats that think they can piggy back off of power leads keyword and will probably vanish from supporting the product in a few months. Just sad and pathetic what people are stooping to these days to make a quickbuck off ya. There are 2 types of marketers - Innovators and imitator's.

    FYI - PLPX can get emails for Yell.com listings.

    Matt, for the sake of the review thread, you might want to specify that you're the creator of Power Leads pro.

    And on that note, I do agree with you that several fly by night people try to copy innovative ideas from others and aren't around a month or two later to support their software. But on that same note, Internet Shadow has been around far longer than all of them -- for a few years actually, and an earlier version a few years longer. Not many others have a history like yours and ours of supporting our clients, and it's definitely something to consider.

    And not only is there international capabilities, but there is an advanced setting to get tons of leads (10x to 100x as many as some others) as well as a quick search version to grab the easy ones faster. Plus there's a new version coming out with some cool capabilities that won't be seen anywhere else, but feel free to check out the current version or pm if you have questions.

    I wanted PLP but due to cost I bought PLS. There's no cost listed for InternetShadow.com for their biz leads software. I agree with Mathew that "There are 2 types of marketers - Innovators and imitator's."

    I have read some bad review about Lead Pro, maybe the LGS software or mobile renegade are worth a try since they too scrape data from so many places and yet are much cheaper than Power Lead Pro

    Hi everyone, this is a relatively specialist side but a great Lead Generation Software is whoisvisiting.com.

    Alot of people are out searching proactively for new leads (which is great) but there's significant volume within your current business that are left completely unidentified and these are the ones that initial need focusing on as they're the cheapest to acquire and they already have knowledge of yourselves as a company.

    Effectively from a B2B perspective it enables you to identify which companies have visited your website and not engaged therefore identifying a warm pipeline of prospects.

    I hope this helps.

    Charlie.
