What are the best ways to get free leads?

First of all, there is no overnight way to make it in this industry and anyone who claims to is a liar.

As far as blogging, over the course of a few months with a QUALITY post of 1,000 words or more and the majority targeted around buyer keywords WILL MOST CERTAINLY bring you traffic, leads, and authority.

Other than that, to quit Facebook (the biggest traffic pool around) is not in your best interest. There are ways that I use daily to bring in leads from Facebook with very little effort apart from the learning curve of how to prospect for cold leads.

Youtube is another way to get free leads if you learn to optimize your video properly and use sites like SocialAdr for bookmarking. You don't need a strong channel or tons of views, contrary to popular belief, you just need the right method and the willingness to put in the work.

This industry is work and while it's easy to implement it's hard to consistently do so. That's where people fail, that's why people quit, and that's why IM gets a bad rap because everyone is led to believe this is a push-button miracle cure to their problems when in actuality it's harder work kinitially for a much greater reward in the end.

Giving up is the worst thing to do and the only way you'll fail.

Hope that helps

Forum Marketing!! Its really simple. Put your offer in your signature and post good information on forums that are relevant to your niche. Guaranteed to make leads that way!

Hey guys. I never said I was going to quit facebook just that at the moment it hasn't been very effective for me.

Just be aware that Facebook does change its search algorithims from time to time - quite recently updated again, making a lot of posts not show up in the news feed even if you like a page. Trick is to really drill down and target your market. Plenty of info and courses available on the subject - find one by a reputable creator that is current.

Hi,

You need to focus your time on becoming the "Go To" expert others can trust
rather than someone who just wants to collect leads.

Once you establish yourself as the go to expert you'll naturally attract into
your business every single day.

This could be...

1) Creating a BLOG and adding top tier content to it and collecting
leads that way.

2) YouTube videos that position you as someone who is an expert and
someone who people trust and would like to learn more from.

3) Not someone who asks too many questions at forums about how to
do something you could be helping others with and building your own
business that way.

It's all speculative to ask which is the BEST way to FREE leads.

There is no such thing as FREE anyway.

There's a cost either way.

Either with the MONEY you pay for traffic or the TIME you spend
on so called FREE traffic generation methods etc etc.

post articles at the warrior forum with a link to your squeeze page...works really good

I didn't think links were allowed on your posts on here. I've never seen anyone else with one.

Ever try posting youtube video tutorials? Even if you don't have expensive video software you can still accomplish this quite easily. You can create a simple how to slide in PowerPoint or OpenOffice, upload it to author stream, and then link to your lead capture form in the comments area. If it's evergreen content, your good to go for a long time!

As said above the vast majority have an online presence in the form of blogs

It's the one way where you can attract and keep customers, especially when they hear you're story and know you are a real human being!

You're primary objective is to build a list and the best way to drive traffic to your blog. Once on there provide good value driven posts that people will enjoy reading. You won't have to put much more effort to convince them to opt-in if your provide awesome value

The best form is ranked content. Although SEO takes a few weeks or months to get results, once your content is ranked, it pulls in steady traffic as long as it's ranked.

Create a few sites/blogs with quality content. Drop some offers on the sites that send traffic to a squeeze page.

Create some nice/bold graphics such as a banner that highlight the offer. Check out Canva.com. It's a free graphics creator that produces outstanding graphics.
