Buy enquiries or grow your own flow

Enquiries can be bought by the piece or grown at home. Each path has its own price and its own risk. We take both apart honestly — including the case where our work is not what you need.

Outcome

What stays with you afterwards

An understanding of what you pay for

Buying, you pay for a contact. Growing your own flow, you pay for work that stays with you: pages, campaigns, tags, a picture. Those are different purchases.

A list of questions for the seller

What counts as a qualified enquiry, is the contact sold to anyone else, how a reject is challenged, is there a cap on volume. The answers are worth more than the price per piece.

An honest answer about us

If your task is to get through the week rather than to build a flow, we will say so plainly. Work you do not need now does not become more useful because we sold it to you.

Who it fits

When people come to us with this

Who this comparison helps today.

You need enquiries tomorrow

The season is already running, the sales people are idle, and your own channel takes weeks to build. The temptation to buy something ready is understandable.

You bought before and got burned

Some contacts turned out to be somebody else’s, some had been sold to others as well, and there was no rule by which to get the money back.

You think it is cheaper

The price per piece looks clear. But it has to be compared not with the price of a click but with the price of a PAYING customer — and there the picture is often different.

How the work goes

A clear order, no surprises

1 · A conversation and a count

Half an hour about your work: where enquiries come from today, how many there are, who answers them and what counts as a good customer. No access to your systems is needed at this step.

2 · A picture, and one channel

We show what happens to enquiries today and pick where to start: one channel and one way of counting. The picture stays with you either way.

3 · Switch on and count

We turn the channel on, set up intake and source tags, and then look at the numbers with you every week: what works, what we switch off, where the money moves.

The figure is named in a quote for your task, once it is clear which channels we switch on, how many enquiries you get today and who answers them. There is no price list here on purpose: every niche has its own cost per enquiry and its own deal size, and an "average price" means averaged work.

Straight talk

What we do ourselves and what we do with partners

We do this ourselves

We grow the flow inside your own systems: channels, pages, intake, source tags and a weekly count. Enquiries come straight to you and stay yours.

We help you read a contract with a seller of enquiries if you do buy: what to look at and which terms must be named before the money.

We build this out for you

If you already buy part of your flow, we do not make you drop it: we count both sources in one picture and compare them by the cost of a paying customer.

We run this with a partner

We do not resell other people’s contact lists and do not take on "intercepting" visitors of other websites: both run into data protection law, and work you are ashamed of does not become profitable.

Where a partner does the work, we stay your single point of contact: we pick the contractor, set the task, watch the timing and answer to you for the result. The contract names the contractor honestly — no "we do everything in-house".

Questions

What people usually ask

Why do you not sell enquiries by the piece?
Because in that model an argument about the quality of each piece is inevitable, and it is won by whoever has more weight. We prefer the path where the enquiry comes to you directly and the terms are written down in advance.
Can the same contact be sold to several buyers?
On this market, yes — and "sold to one buyer only" is usually promised in words rather than as a procedure. If you buy, ask how that term is checked and what happens if it is broken.
Which gives enquiries faster?
Usually buying — and it also costs more per paying customer. Your own flow starts more slowly but stays with you when the work ends.
Can the two be combined?
Yes, and often that is sensible: buying covers today, your own channel covers the next season. The point is to count them in one picture rather than in two reports.
Enquiry

Let us look at your task

Half an hour about where your customers come from — no access to your systems and no commitments.

We call back during working hours. Company details are optional — if you give them, we read the open registries first and come to the conversation prepared.
