generate leads online?

**Daniel J. Bertelsen** · 08-21-2009 03:46 PM

Hi guys,

I'm gonna cut right to the case. A friend of mine is currently working at a call centre where he does phone sales, quite a shitty job, but it's just temporarily to pay his bills and such. However, he spoke to his boss about how they get all the phone numbers on people and stuff, and his answer was: "we buy them". After a little conversation my friend got told that if we could generate some leads (phone numbers) for the company they would be happy to buy them off us.

So that is what we want to do - does anybody have any experience in how to generate leads online? Basically, what we need from people is their name and phone number, and perhaps email, but not mandatory.

We where thinking about setting up an online contest where you could win whatever, and then market it online and in colleges and such, and perhaps generate some leads that way by making people subscribe to the contest online by registering with name and phone number. This would be the "normal" way of doing it, but does anybody have any better or perhaps faster working concepts?

Thanks in advance,

Daniel

Just now I looked at your post. I've something which will really help you out. I'm in marketing field since from many years. Our company uses online company directory for sales prospecting. We’ve found it very helpful because it provides accurate phone numbers and email ids of top-level executives and decision-makers. So, our job is simplified. Take a look. I’m sure you’ll find it useful too.
