Integrity lead center

It takes on average 7 touches before a lead loosens up. Key word here is average.

7 touches.....I'll need some Viagra to be able to last 7 touches.

Spent $350 on live transfers. They are pretty much bait and switch type of hostile garbage MAPD leads. They are closeable but not really worth $55/lead. Maybe at $20 its a value.

These were Integrity live call MAPD leads?

But I got the $3600 in groceries and te I was just looking for my ins carrier, and I was looking for SS or I was looking for Medicaid
and everyone was on Medicaid

In the past I tried different kinds of Medicare leads from several different vendors. Maybe 10 years ago they were workable and I broke even during the first 12 months.

Then quality started declining and I found ways to self generate leads. For a while I used direct mail and had an acceptable ROI targeting the T65 market . . . but then that source started declining.

Medicare marketing has so many gimmicks that I feel it is virtually impossible for an agent to turn a profit buying Medicare leads.

YMMV

Its a different world from what I was used to from 2011 to 2018 things went downhill from there

On the outside looking in (because I haven't done any lead buying in 15+ years), it seems slimy these days. When my clients tell me about the calls they receive, it's clearly deceptive. Many agents on the forum who have purchased leads simply confirm this. The lead companies really don't care. They're probably paying somebody a small amount to make an appointment and then transfer it to the unsuspecting agent at $55 a pop. All while breaking the CMS rules. And because of that, we now have to record our phone calls and are back to the 48 hour rule on SOA's.

Anyone with the talent and skills to be able to generate HIGH-QUALITY Med supp leads is not selling to individual agents. Even if they did multiple times, that's not where the pot of gold is. This means if you're an individual agent, everything that's available for you to buy is a very low-quality/worthless lead and always will be.

I hear this often but my mileage definitely varies. DM has been my primary source of business since I started in 2019 and my ROI has only improved over time.

I have a very consistent system that I have tweaked over the years that has been the foundation of my success. I have a spreadsheet that tracks every mail drop I've ever done by several key metrics. I've done 90 T65 mail drops since 2019. If I exclude my worst 10% (which were me just trying something different) my cost per sale is about $221. And that doesn't include "referrals_dm" from the DM. (These are referrals I get immediately when I close the lead. Such as when I also get the spouse because she's delayed her B because she was on his group.) When I include referrals from DM my cost per sale is $183. And thats since 2019. Last year my cost per sale was $195 before referrals and $165 after referrals.

Don't know what many of y'all are doing wrong, or what I'm doing right but I'm kinda glad that few others have much success with DM... lol...

I haven't had a need yet, but I noticed lead center used to sell MAPD leads, now they just sell Medicare Supp. Crazy!

Hint: 1000s of rogue agents out there hawking med supp and flipping the script to MAPD.

Another Hint: Most leads suck and are junk. Haven't had a good lead service since 2011. Mailers were good early on 1st year. Not that junk leads can't be worked, but the squirrels getting those nuts could get those same nuts by using the super inexpensive T65 Locator or an old Josh Lead Shack list of everyone who is turning 65 in your state. Esp for calling for med supp.

I had better luck with T65 Locator in my first few years than any lead these days. Matter of fact, I might get back at this any day now. I mail to the addresses in it, once in awhile. I don't get ton in one shot but over time it's tremendously multiplying and paying off.
