I went to a very interesting seminar today that made it known that my own server provider could be ripping me off of my own leads. I will be reviewing my contract to see if they have the ability to do this, and the worst part is, it is perfectly legal.
Here is the problem, say you are a LO with your own website and you are obtaining information from leads from your website. Your server provider could be delaying sending you the information that you worked so hard to obtain as they may try and sell it first before giving it to you. At the seminar today, the speaker said that he has negotiated with his server provider that his leads are his and his alone. He has tested the server provider weekly and he states that when he enters information, he gets a text message within seconds and an email within minutes.
If you have spent thousands dollars getting your website set up to draw potential clients to you, don't you deserve to reap the benefits and not some other company who basically has done nothing but act as a leech? I suggest that you read your contract and test your system if you are in this situation. If you are not receiving your texts or emails within minutes of entering your information in your own website, you are losing leads.
If your website is not set up to gather lead information, you are throwing money away. Your website is up 24/7. You can be sure I will be revising mine to gather lead information soon. I could use every lead I get, couldn't you?
Go figure....Seems like our wide world of info is a wide world of crooks. Thanks for the info I will deff check out my site. Ginger
