Businesses that are used to purchasing leads

I'm looking for a resource on businesses that are used to purchasing leads. I'm trying to decide what would be the best niches to go after to generate leads for. The leads I will generate will be direct telephone transfer. The niches I'm planning on targeting locally are:

Dentists
Chiropractors
HVAC
Plumbers
Painters
Roofers
Electricians
Home Remodellers
Painters

If anyone knows which of these would be the most likely to be interested in these that would be great. I'm looking to drill down to about 5 niches & test this out.

Thanks

    HVAC
    Plumbers
    Painters
    Roofers
    Electricians
    Home Remodellers
    Painters

    these guys are generally out in the field

    Dentists

      I think the ones that you listed have quite a bit of competition. What about the following.

      Piano repair
      Pool table Repair
      appliance repair
      concrete driveway repair
      auto body repair
      garage door repair

      I realize you don't hear much about these small niches. However these are the ones i am going to go for in my area. It would not take much to rank these at all. I just have to figure out how much to charge. I was thinking that I could charge around $100.00 a month to start. If i just do the ones i mentioned that would be $600.00 a month with little effort.
      I hope this helps

        There are a ton of businesses that purchase leads. What you should first do is decide the approach YOU want to take. You can see some of my other threads on this, but I'll break it down for you at a high level....

        1. Direct = you find the business willing to buy the leads (live calls), negotiate the lead price, and collect payment. You'll likely make more money with this.

        2. Affiliate networks that offer PPCall programs = They already have buyers for your calls, all you have to do is focus on making the phone ring. You'll get paid much less with this approach, but you also don't have to deal with the headaches of finding buyers. Generally, you'll have to meet specific requirements about length of call, location, time of day...etc.

        But, as far as what industries buy leads......here's a little something to get your juices flowing....
        • Home Improvement (Go look at HomeAdvisor) - even stuff like industrial buildings and services (Go look at BuyerZone)
        • Insurance (almost any kind of insurance)
        • Healthcare (doctors, dentists, chiropractors.....etc)
        • Financial Services
        • Education
        • Legal
        Personally, I like PPCall lead generation. You can do it with videos (so you don't need a website), you can scale quickly (lots of videos ), and you can record every call (I recommend Callfire). It's really a low cost-low tech entry point if you're trying to make some extra $$ online. BUT............it's NOT always easy.

        Good Luck!

    I believe cosmetic surgeons always seek customers and each patient is at least $10K, go for business that has high revenue per customer -Engineering companies are often overlooked but each client can be multi-millions, Lear-Jets, Power boats, Yachts, Flying lessons, Scuba diving....

      Leads can be a tricky business.

      As a service provider, the only way I can make money is to charge by the lead. Many rooms don't operate that way---they charge by the hour, and whatever results you get is what you get. I find it incredible anyone would agree to that.

      On the other end of the spectrum is the cheapskates that want everything for free; the "commission only" jobs, which I would never agree to. YOUR sales ability shouldn't dictate MY pay. That's simply not fair, as it puts all the risk on me, and you get your leads for free.

      Being that said, just some advise from someone who's been there. Don't let lead buyers take advantage of you.

      Good verticals:

      Photographers
      Roofers
      Painters
      Auto Detailing
      Concrete
      Dentists are gold if you can talk to them, good luck
      Anything "mobile"-
      mobile DJ
      mobile auto detailing
      mobile car repair
      party rentals
