SeniorLeads.comReviews 58

I decided to give Senior Leads a try. The only good thing I can say is that they do give you information on what to say to a lead and how to follow up. The problem I found was that the leads were terrible. Every lead I talked to said that they thought they were giving their information about a job posting. No one had any interest in financial services. It seems these leads were tricked on the ads they answered. Senior Leads then passes it onto you saying that they have an interest in financial services which ends up not being true. I would not recommend.

I was impressed initially with the salesman who marketed this product. It seemed like an amazing opportunity. I believe it is a scam. You can do this same lead program by picking the addresses in your zip code and doing an email campaign or postcard. It is a cold lead and even with the recommended schedule of mailing and calling by the company, not one lead was good in over 100 leads. They were all the equivalent of cold calls. You sign a contract that locks you in for at least a month and you have no recourse. You will not get help via their ticket inquiry or any real person on the phone. DO NOT BUY!

I tried 2 other lead services in the past. Seniorleads is better because:
--it is an entire system. If you just get a lead and call the lead, that kind of lead is close to worthless. With Seniorleads, they have a booklet that you create with your photo and credentials and send before you call. So on every call so far, the prospect knew me and I was not a stranger
--training videos and 30 page guide explains the psychology of how to follow up with the lead -- contents are so much more advanced than anything I have seen before

$10,000+ of commissions in 40 days. I have received 37 leads, had 4 appointments (2 more scheduled) and brought on 3 new clients. I have used several lead services and seniorleads does something very smart. Rather than sending me the lead and having me call the prospect, they provide a personalized booklet (my name, photo, etc) which I send the prospect before I call. This has made all the difference because the prospect knows me when I call. I am not a stranger.

Basically, they give you a cold lead and have you market to them in hopes of you getting a sale. Then they try and bill your CC as many times as possible until you figure out to cancel the service. They will not talk to you after you join unless you pay extra. They do not respond to their only other way to communicate with them. The sales rep totally misrepresented the process that they recommend once they have your non-refundable money. If you get any sale out of this it will be totally due to the work you put into a cold lead. You could probably do as well from the phone book. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY.

Very good experience. Although the leads appear to come from several sources, I have already closed 2 of the facebook leads as new clients, commission over $10k. Even though about 40% of the leads I have not yet reached by phone (got voice mail), I know that if I keep calling, I will get them eventually on the phone. This is the biggest frustration but I can't blame seniorleads. This problem is always there with any prospecting method. I am very satisfied with the service and if my results keep going like this, I could earn over $100k this year from these leads.

I have enjoyed using this service as everything is well-documented. Unlike other marketing services I have used where details are left out, they supply several videos and a written users manual and an online knowledgbase (which I have not needed to use). It has been 3 weeks and I have a few appointments for rollovers that sound like good business. I won't now until I meet with these prospects but they sound good on the phone. They are not working with an advisor so there is no reason I should not be able to do some business.

I have been using Seniorleads for 10 weeks. I have purchased now about 60 leads - cost $1200. My 5 new clients have generated several thousand in commissions and 2 of the clients will be annual fee clients. Sending their booklet is what make the system work well. Rather than just calling a lead, the lead has already made a request, I send the booklet, establish my credibility and then call. This simpler extra step makes all the difference in my opinion. I do take the extra step to print the booklet covers on my color printer so that it looks more professional. I have no complaints and the system has worked smoothly for me.

How about this one. Because their rep (Dennis Wiley) screwed up and signed me up for the wrong program they had to keep giving me credits from zip codes I never requested. Rather than doing that, they simply canceled my membership owing credit and 2 more leads, I never got. BTW, the last one of their leads I just called on, the guy hasn't saved a PENNY for retirement. Point being they don't scrubb these leads one bit. They are just sending names and address (but, not always, sometimes no address)so they can charge your credit card.

Have had a good experience. More "bad" leads than good leads. As expected. But the good leads are solid. Have had about 8 good leads and set appointments with half. Two sales so far (both annuities). I think that there may be some of the other leads that will make appointments if I stay on top of them. This beats cold calling and waiting for clients to give me referrals. The scripting they give to contact the leads is really good.

These are the worst leads in the world. I wish I would have read the reviews before I purchased. The leads are not qualified. 80% of the leads never requested a booklet. 10 out of 30 were wrong numbers. They claim that they advertise where affluent people frequent websites. REALLY? My leads were people who live in a shelter or work in a soup kitchen, couldn't speak English or were on welfare. Yeah right, they were definitely requesting info on 401K rollovers. I am going to report them to the better business bureau.
