Informed Sources®, “The Difference Between a Lead and a Sale”© Today’s Do-Not-Call Lists and privacy concerns have made Informed Sources® Referrals more valuable than ever. Since 1991, Informed Sources® has been a special source of Qualified Leads for products ranging from Appliances to Zinnias. When a new customers or a renewed customer is worth $200, $300 or more…we’re the Only Source. HOW DO WE DO IT? We have special dialogs with Millions of homeowners across the country via our Pre-Paid-Responder Program and our Informed Sources® Co-op Phone Survey. Here’s how they work. Pre-Paid-Responder™ Program
We’ve worked with many of the biggest and the best. We don’t outsource our primary research and we have statisticians with expertise in advanced statistical analysis who can bring the results to life. Expert Staff – Lead Generation Agents are thoroughly screened and trained for appropriate articulation and knowledge of our clients' products. This degree of training in front line customer service staff is unique within the industry . Special training emphasizes speed as well as "implicit-interest-identification" (I.I.I.) Each day our interviewers contact homeowners to find those in the market for our clients' products. The average interview is 30-45 seconds.
Branched Interviewing – Once the contact is made the question screens ‘branch' in a predetermined order. The computer rejects any inappropriate responses on each question. Based on the response to each question the computer branches to the next appropriate question screen. The agent has no choice but to follow the computer's direction. Verification - After a lead is identified, the response is verified by a supervisor who is "patrolling" the calling floor. Approximately 40% of these Leads are rejected on verification. The respondent may be confused about the question or "not really" in the market among other reasons for not being passed on to our Loan Request Department. This verification step significantly improves our Loan Request Department's efficiency. This verification procedure is also unique within the industry. Using another proprietary computer software system Leads are Electronically forwarded to our Loan Request Department. Clients often have us follow-up our own leads. In product product categories such have home-equity loans, we successfully convert 62%-75%. Clients typically get a full loan application from 65%-90% of the Loan Requests we send them. We have experienced similar success with categories such as:
