Lead Generation Profits

If you've been thinking about starting a lead generation business but don't know where to start, you need to talk to Vondre Whaley.

Vondre is a self-proclaimed serial entrepreneur who has been involved in building successful businesses both offline and online for the past decade. His business ventures range from local niche newspaper businesses, an insurance agency and advertising sales to creating niche websites, information products and providing online lead services for local businesses.  

It was his success in the lead services business that prompted Vondre to create Lead Generation Profits – “the Ultimate System to Create Huge Profits in the Lead Generation Business”. Using the system he perfected through 2 years of trial and error, Vondre was able to create a six-figure income by creating niche websites like the one pictured to the right and selling leads from those sites to local businesses.  

Lead Generation 101, right? Well, not exactly. Through his tireless efforts to perfect his lead generation system, Vondre has discovered a unique twist to the usual methods used to generate leads. This twist is essentially a new revenue model that allows the site owner to tightly control operating costs while also maximizing profits.

Vondre calls his revenue model the “pay per exclusive territory” model and it entails assigning a client a specific territory or geographical area in which to generate leads. Vondre's system also does not rely solely on pay per click (PPC) advertising to generate traffic to the sites, instead it employs specific search engine optimization techniques and offline promotions to generate free traffic. Pay per click campaigns can still be used to quickly drive traffic to a new site and Vondre includes a guide on Adwords. 

The Lead Generation Profits course is literally a business in a box – everything you need to get started NOW is included in this course.  

The Lead Generation Profits course includes:

• 102 page PDF workbook detailing the entire system
• 8 instructional videos that cover all topics in the workbook in detail
• The same software script that Vondre uses to operate his lead gen business
• 5 instructional videos covering installation and customization of the software
• Software installation instruction PDF
• 12 traffic videos explaining how to drive traffic to your sites
• Resources file with additional templates and guides – including a sales letter template, squeeze page template, sample flyer, an Adwords guide and a WordPress guide

I had the workbook spiral bound and began to work my way through Vondre's course.

First off, I have to say that I love Vondre's style. His writing is clear and concise – very easy to understand and follow. VERY important in a “how to” manual. His videos are short but thorough and have the same easy going style as his writing. In his first video, Vondre does a sort of a disclaimer – letting you know that the videos you're about to watch are not professionally produced videos and remain unedited.

For me, that was part of the appeal of the course. The videos aren't slick, professional marketing spots, but rather like a conversation with a friend sitting across the table. Vondre takes you step by step from choosing a niche and creating your site to generating traffic and finding paying clients, all in painstaking detail. He gives suggestions along the way to help you find a profitable niche and create quality content for your site, and gives you pointers on how to avoid the major pitfalls that catch so many lead generation business owners off guard. 

The course is missing detailed information on how to customize the squeeze page template and the actual process is only briefly mentioned in one video. That being said, it is very easy to customize the template using HTML editing software. There is a good free WYSIWYG (what you see is what you get) editor called FCKeditor available at http://www.fckeditor.net. With the FCKeditor, you can edit HTML files as easily as you do Word documents.  

The software installation is covered in great detail, but is not for the faint of heart. If you're completely new to CPanel hosting and/or installing software scripts, you may need some extra help with this step. You can get someone on odesk to install it for you for a few dollars. I got someone on odesk to install it for me. followed Vondre's instructions to the letter, got my software installed but had an error message. However, as Vondre recommends, I use HostGator for my hosting and their support staff quickly corrected my mistake and my site was up and running. 

In order to fully benefit from Vondre's Lead Generation Profits system, you'll need the following tools:

• Domain Name – you can get domain names at GoDaddy.com
• Hosting for your sites – Vondre suggests HostGator (get the Baby account for unlimited domains)
• Autoreponder system – Aweber is Vondre's choice
• Professional quality custom graphics to add to your site – Vondre mentions several resources for quality low cost graphics
• A “free give away” report or information to offer your opt-in leads – Vondre makes several great suggestions as to how to quickly and easily create or acquire what you need

Online lead generation is a great way to create a successful online business – and Vondre's Lead Generation Profits course can help dramatically shorten the learning curve. I wouldn't have a problem calling Lead Generation Profits “a complete blueprint for lead generation success”.  

If you're serious about making money online in your own business, you would greatly benefit from this course. But in order to succeed, you must TAKE ACTION! Grab a copy of Lead Generation Profits, invest the time to read the workbook and watch the videos – and just do it! Lead Generation Profits
