    How do I actually sell my leads?

    The leads are coming in for free regardless. I'm not trying to start a new venture with this model.

    The second option requires one to know if the sale went through and the value. There is probably a technical solution here and I'm sure there are businesses that do this with some sort of automation. If you don't know, that's fine but don't make a snide remark and then provide no actual input.

    Ok no need to be rude. Yes first one is simple. Second one relies on trust on both paying at all and the value that it actually sold for. Could easily be underpaid every time.

    How do I actually sell my leads?

    UPDATE for clarity: My question is about the literal mechanics of selling a lead as in the transaction itself. One suggestion mentioned commission after sale. Great! How is something like that done.

    How do I actually sell my leads?

    I'm not actively finding leads for people, it's just a case of selling whenever they happen to come in. Maybe I wasn't clear, this isn't going to be a big money spinner, it's just I have enquiries coming in so might as well do something with them. I've been in the exact position as the...

    Yeh I thought about that before but how do I prove the sale went through?

    How do I actually sell my leads?

    Yeh good call on first lead free. My leads will be high quality as I've been in the industry so know the right questions to ask. I'll just set up a portal on my site to purchase the lead once agreed.

    How do I actually sell my leads?

    Yeh what you're describing is just trades helping eachother out. Checkatrade is a lead directory that sells subscriptions. That's not what I'm getting at here.

    How do I actually sell my leads?

    Thanks for the reply. Sorry I should been more specific. I'm more thinking of the actual mechanism of how this is usually done. Definitely, I can pick up the phone but my contact actually needs to purchase the lead from me.

    How do I actually sell my leads?

    Hi, I started a hobby business a while ago, I'll be slightly guarded but it's a service business in a pretty niche area. I never had time to take on enough of the jobs for various reasons, one being it was difficult taking calls during my actual office job (I now wfh). I was surprised how...

    Fortunately, I know the exact routes people use to find tradesmen, having run trade businesses previously. My question was simply on SEO which has given me food for thought and I will proceed with a more focused strategy to test the waters

    Thanks for everyones input. I will proceed with focusing on my local area and surrounding to validate the idea. This will keep SEO simple just like my actual trade business in the past plus it means I can do grass roots marketing plus local social media engagement.

    I can't have local business listings. It won't work for this model given the area it will cover eventually. Plus it's not a service business or a fixed location so Google has already flagged it

    It's not for all trades and there is a USP which I'm not going to share here. To your point though, I think I'll focus one or two areas to begin with to validate the idea cheaply. Nothing stopping expansion beyond if it works
