Vimo Lead Flow

[vlade1212]

Anyone currently using Vimo having issues getting leads from them? I am asking for seven a day and have been only getting 2-3 per day. Just wondering if it's just the location I am in or Vimo. I am in Indiana and normally have no issues getting the number of leads I want from Vimo but, since May started I am only getting 2-3 per day on average. I have had some days where I only get 1 or none. Any input is appreciated.

Lead flow across almost all vendors seems to be down significantly.

There's a "perfect storm" going on that is the cause for the decline in ifp health leads:

- Poor economy
- COBRA subsidy
- Inertia (people waiting to see about new gov't plans)

It will continue for quite some time.

Successful agents moving forward will be skilled at generating their own leads.

Quality really seems to have hit an all time low. I do not know a single agent who's been working leads successfully for years who has not commented on the complete rubbish they've been receiving lately.

One issue seems to be that people are getting a bit more savvy by putting in fake numbers but a valid email. Most vendors will not credit unless both the email and phone number are fake leading to worse ROI for agents.

I figured the COBRA deal and the government talk has made an impact on leads as people are waiting to see what happens. I have been running into the same issue with the lead contact info being incorrect as well. Thanks for the responses!

Yes...VIMO quantity is down. Try some other additional vendors and stick to a 60-mile radius and your volume will increase.

Also...local advertising, if done the right way, will get you a few quality leads each week.
