Q & A
Do you offer lead generation?
No, we do not offer leads. The reason why is because leads from a host come with a lot of strings attached… such as much lower commission splits, and the host owning those leads. Instead, we take a “teach a man to fish” approach where you have access to a marketing and business development coach who will guide you through the steps to create a sustainable lead flow for yourself.
