Episode 30: There are a lot of marketing strategies out there that will help you to generate leads, build an email list, get webinar registrants, book sales calls, etc.But what a lot of online business owners eventually learn is that not all leads are created equal and cheap leads aren’t always a good thing. Wasting time with “tire-kickers”, broke people, and leads that ultimately just waste your time and never buy can be very costly to your business.That’s why it’s well worth the higher cost to get a higher quality lead if those leads convert into a sales at a much higher rate.In this episode, Carina Gardner lays out the strategies she uses to generate super-hot leads that are ready to buy BEFORE they jump on a sales call with you and how she’s used those strategies to build a multi-million dollar business in only a few short years.About Carina Gardner: Carina is a surface pattern and craft designer turned CEO, who teaches hobbyists to make money as designers.
