Leads Direct believes that your success is our success! The LeadsDirect network is a discount lead site. We’ve been in business since 2003. To help you use the site, we’ve put together the most frequently asked questions (FAQ’s) that our clients have asked over the years.
If by any chance you don’t see the answer to a question that you have, please feel free to email us, and we’ll get back to you quickly with an answer.
Leads are posted 24 hours a day, 7 days per week in real time. For example, when a consumer clicks “submit” on one of our, (or our partner) web pages, the leads are run through or verification system and entered into the database.
We then age and discount the price from their time of entry into the system.
We let the age of the Leads drive our pricing. We adjust the price of any given lead based on how long it has been in our system. We start with a base price for the freshest leads and discounted from there. Each lead price is marked to the left and will decrease in price over time.
Simply put, we’ll replace a lead if:
- The consumer has given us bad contact information (i.e. phone number not in service)
- The lead is a fictitious person or a person “in the business”
- The lead is a duplicate for one that you have already purchased on this web site
In addition we will at our discretion offer a courtesy credit for:
- The consumer has already completed the transaction
- The consumer claims that they (or any member of their family) did not make the inquiry
Note:We do not accept replacements on aged data (leads that were over 14 days old at the time of purchase).

Closing rate is heavily dependent on the person doing the closing! That said, our clients report back that 10-20% of the leads we provide result in sales in the short term.
Some tips for closers: Call the consumer quickly. Be persistent. Use a leads management system whenever possible, If you haven’t gotten in touch with the consumer, put the lead in your tickle file to call in 3 or 4 weeks. Aged leads sometimes close better than new!
Our site stores your credit card in an encrypted state, and only uses the card when you make a purchase. We do accept all of the major credit cards for lead purchase payments.
When purchasing leads from Leads Direct, you will be purchasing a shared lead. Shared leads may be sold to more than one agent over time, giving you a significantly lower cost per lead! Shared leads are often only sold twice or less…it’s a big country! One important note about why we sell shared leads vs. exclusive. Exclusive leads are by their nature exclusive only to the lead provider; however, the consumer can continue to shop. The same consumer that generated your exclusive lead could have called 5 other companies or submitted for multiple quote requests prior to coming through us exclusively. That fact plus the added cost is why we sell a shared lead.
