Because our industry involves dealing with customers’ finances, it’s absolutely critical to foster trust with customers.
We want to bring to your attention something that’s been happening with some of our partners: having company phone numbers marked as “Spam.” If you attempt to call a customer, but the number shows up as “Spam” or something similar, the customer likely will not pick up the phone. This can negatively impact conversion rates and it will damage customer trust in your business.
At LeadsMarket, we pride ourselves on looking out for our lender-partners. This week we wanted to highlight the importance of limiting the number of “cooks” in your business “kitchen.”
It’s true there may be a benefit to outsourcing certain functions of a business–operations, HR, marketing, etc. It’s impossible to do everything oneself. But, by the same token, the more people that are involved in a business process, the greater the risk of unintended consequences.
We thought it would be prudent to remind you of a few tips on how to optimize your lead buying for now and the rest of the year.
This time of year is often considered the “slow season” in the online lending industry. That’s why it’s even more important to take steps that can optimize your performance in the coming months, so you can continue to meet your goals for the year.
There’s no doubt that the lead generation industry is booming, and it has been for many years now. But with so many new companies cropping up seemingly every day, it can be hard to figure out which businesses have strong company cultures, and which are shady fly-by-night operations.
There are countless varieties of lead fraud, including different types of consumer fraud, affiliate/publisher fraud, platform fraud, attorney fraud, etc. With so many different types of fraud–and a never-ending cycle of new fraud being developed–the industry needs providers with the right culture and the right resources to continuously combat fraud. It’s never a “one-and-done” solution.
When you work with LeadsMarket, you get increased opportunities, advanced tools, and strategies to improve performance and compliance–all of which can lead to higher payouts.
You could be leaking data, which can cause huge headaches for your business. Data leaks occur when internal data is transferred outside of your organization by employees or outside actors without authorization. They can come from a variety of sources, including rogue employees, faulty software, poor IT practices, or bad vendors.
LeadsMarket’s tried and true network makes it easy for you to take advantage of these opportunities with a very effective decline monetization path and significant click volume. Many of our partners have already taken advantage of these strategies.
Looks can be deceiving – this statement could apply to a variety of different situations, including your marketing data. We understand the importance of data-driven decision making in the online space, but sometimes the numbers don’t tell the entire story.
At LeadsMarket, we know how to convert your leads into revenue. That’s why we don’t rely on tricks or false claims to get your business. We simply deliver results.
As more data comes in during the final weeks of the year, we want to alert you to a potential pitfall that could seriously impact your business. We’ve heard that some of our lender partners may be seeing manipulated data from some of their other channels.

Once considered a very small niche within the lending market, peer-to-peer lending is starting to go mainstream. Recently, two such lenders, Lending Club and OnDeck Capital, have both raised several million dollars each by going public through their respective IPOs. What is the secret to their success? Millennials. More and more millennials it seems are establishing businesses and are in need of raising capital. Previous generations went through traditional sources such as banks, but millennial business owners appear to prefer peer-to-peer lending groups. Here are five reasons millennials prefer alternative lenders rather than traditional lenders.
With the growing popularity of marketplace lenders, traditional banks are taking notice of the emerging competition. Meanwhile, marketplace lenders are looking to grow their currently niche client base. Instead of stoking a rivalry, however, some financial institutions from both groups have decided to team up. Such partnerships promise the convenience of marketplace lending with the familiarity and performance of a brick-and-mortar bank.
Both payday loans and installment loans are often described as “small dollar, high-cost loans,” because they are usually for relatively small amounts of money at high rates of interest.
There are many options, but a payday loan will typically be for an amount between $100 and $1,500 dollars for a period of no more than 30 days. As the term “payday” suggests, the idea is that the loan should be repaid when the borrower receives their next paycheck – typically within two to four weeks. The payday loan industry is currently estimated to be worth approximately $38 billion.
