BoldLeads

Mary, As I have stated numerous times to Paul D[redacted], I bought a lead generation product. When I purchased the product I was told by Paul "trust me you'll get leads. My office uses real geeks which is another lead generation site, and they deliver REAL leads.  A lead is someone who is in the market to sell their home. I told him that he is a sales person who makes his money off of sales calls and leads. What if every single person who called him or he called wasn't a serious buyer or interested at all. That's not a real, qualified, genuine lead and he knows it. I was on their facebook page which they screen heavily and have to approve comments. Anything negative written about the leads not being real are erased. I even had another guy on the bold leads fb page reach out to me when I said "these aren't real leads!". Of course, that was deleted. Yes I was only on the site for 4 days when I started complaining. Why after ONLY four days did I complain? I complained because I had received over 20 leads that were OUT of the zipcode which I had paid for as an exclusive territory (a sales gimmick which they can't defend), OR people did not enter any contact info. No name. No number. No email. Just an address. Sometimes people would enter multiple times, same address with all fake contact info. Or the few times I actually connected with someone, they said..."please don't contact me I'm not in the market, I was just curious as to what my house is worth." One of them was even my neighbor and told me not to contact him! Therefore once again, these are not REAL, solid, actively looking to sell, leads. These are FAKE leads. When I continued to confront Paul about this he said, most realtors say they start seeing results in 8-12 months. So they want you to pay $200 a month with no real activity and trust that all of the sudden a year later I will start getting responses from the people whom I don't have email addresses or phone numbers for, or for the people who said don't contact me. I am a business person. I am here to make money. Broke people don't spend $200 a month on lead generation with $599 down. I legitimately believed the sales pitch Paul gave me. I wasted 2 weeks of being able to market to serious sellers because of Bold leads. This is a customer service industry and for him to make me feel like I'm an it for stating the obvious and for him to deny that this is not TRUE lead generation like Real geeks is condescending and ridiculous. The only right thing to do with such an unhappy customer is to refund all of my money. However, they want to continue to argue with me. I am a member of NAR. My broker is the President of our association where national conventions are held. I have been trying to give them a chance, but if I am not refunded my money. I will march right into her office tomorrow and tell her to tell every realtor in Central Florida to steer clear of Bold Leads. As you can tell, I am extremely upset. Not only by the poor leads, but by Paul's absolute disrespect. I hope that helps, if you need more evidence...I can start pulling up more emails, but honestly I've wasted so much time with them....I just want a FULL refund. That is the fair, honest and ethical thing to do.

On August 15, 2016, [redacted] executed a three-month contract with BoldLeads for access to the Boldleads lead follow-up platform and management of an internet advertising campaign. Boldleads provides ad management for marketing on the internet and makes no claims about the quantity or quality of the leads that result from the marketing campaigns. Boldleads delivered and this client received a total of 22 full leads, 4 partial leads and 29 address capture leads after 9 days of an active ad campaign.*See attached screenshot of client's account showing leads up to the day she asked to cancel.  The client agreed to a 3 month subscription with Boldleads and ads were designed and placed, with 55 leads delivered. The client is in breach of this contract.
This client claims, in her Revdex.com letter, that she has spent $1200 with Boldleads. The actual amount spent to date  is $599 ( see attached invoice).  The breakdown is as follows:
$199 - Monthly subscription Pro charge - (A Pro Subscription includes: Access to the lead follow-up platform, unlimited landing pages, an interactive software interface, zip code exclusivity and a professionally managed advertising campaign.)
$200 Non refundable setup charge
$200 - Monthly recurring Ad Budget charge -  (This pays for the upcoming 30 days of online marketing.  This payment draft was to have covered marketing costs from 8/16 -9/15.)
The client’s advertising campaign ran for a total of 9 days with a total advertising spend of  $69.78. The client’s ad campaign has been stopped and on 8/30/16 the client was refunded remaining Ad Budget balance of $130.22. The client also disputed this advertising budget charge with her credit card company on 9/24/16 despite receiving a refund. 
This client stated that she has tried all of Boldleads recommended lead conversion strategies.   The client  has only been with BoldLeads for 10 days.  Many of our strategies suggest following up with leads for a two-week period. The client has not had the time to try all of the recommended strategies. 
The client stated Boldleads Support was not available to her for days. Boldleads offers both email and live support. On 8/25 client scheduled a Support call for 8/29 despite of the availability of earlier time slots. The client also received support and guidance from our Facebook page (see attached).
The client stated that she was told, “it takes 12 months to close a deal.”  Her Boldleads Account Representative reached out to her immediately and reminded her that she was only 4 days into her marketing campaign and that it was too early to make a judgement call based on the 22 leads she had received.  The client was told deal times vary and that internet advertising is a long-term venture. Most of our real estate agent clients report their lead conversion time range to be between months 6-12.
At that time, when the client was talking to her Account Representative, the client asked if she could add a ‘Buyer’  advertising campaign to her already purchased ‘Seller’ advertising campaign. She was advised to complete her 3 month contract starting with Sellers only before adding additional campaigns.

The business reached out on 3/8. While they offered a solution, we were still not happy with their request. We refuse to pay any additional money to BoldLeads for a service that has proven to be useless. As an act of good faith, BoldLeads should stop pursuing us for money and move on to the next naive consumer. We are no longer using their software and have already paid in full for 3 months of nothing but invalid information, fake information, and a bad review on our professional social media business page from someone who was dissatisfied with the landing page and results, or lack thereof.

At first, it was overwhelming how many leads were coming in and I had no idea how to handle the leads. After a few months, I began attempting to make contact with the leads. From March to May, I have listed 4 homes, and one is currently under contract. I’ve earned over $39,450 in 3 months! This is the best lead system out there!!

Hi,I am accept the refund from Bold Leads, but dispute their reply. I have attached the response I used to send to my credit card company to initiate a charge dispute. I stopped that motion once I heard that Bold Leads would provide a refund. I still however, want to alert others to their substandard actions and performance. Communication was misleading from the beginning about cancellation and services, regardless of the posted reply. This case shall now be closed, and I accept the refund, but not the reply. Thanks for your time and efforts regarding this situation. [redacted]

We apologize for any misunderstandings and are sorry that we were unable to reach Mr. [redacted] to sort this out.
Please see the attached executed 6-month contract Mr. [redacted] signed with us.Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Totally exceeded my expectations. I hesitated for 6 months to sign up. But I decided to give it a shot earlier this year. Since signing up I have received too many leads - I can’t even respond to them all! I selectively pick which leads I respond to. I have already closed 4 deals directly from BoldLeads, and have made over $45,000 in commission so far. I would definitely say the system more than pays for itself, and I would be proud to recommend BoldLeads to anyone looking for more business.
Thanks,

The client [redacted] entered into a 12-month agreement with our company. The client's file indicates she had a clear understanding of her online marketing campaign and that it would generate unqualified leads in the early stages of the home selling process.  She was also made aware that it would take time to cultivate the relationship with these leads. After only 3 months, the client requested to cancel, stating the reason as "not enough prospects wanting to sell now".   We reached out to the client to review expectations. We discussed follow-up strategies and acknowledged she was doing many things right.  We advised her to be consistent in her efforts as that would yield the best results. She stated that she did not have time to wait and did not want to spend money on leads that weren't ready to convert now. In addition, she also requested a refund of her recent payment. At that time we reminded her of the agreement she signed that states, "I am responsible for paying for the remainder of the contract term. No exceptions made for early terminations and no refunds" (please see attached).  She then stated that the contract should be void because we did not provide her leads that were ready to sell now.  At that time we reminded her of our initial expectation conversation about different lead types and stages, which is also outlined in our terms of service (please see attached). At that time, she told us if we did not cancel her contract and refund her she would file a complaint with the Revdex.com.  We made every attempt to as assist the client, however, she was not willing to invest the time needed to find success.

In the 3 months since I've been with BL I've already closed 2 listings and I'm working with the same sellers to buy as well. I have over $820,000 in volume in my first 3 months, and I'm excited to keep it going!

I was referred to boldleads through a friend in a mastermind group who was having success with it in a high-end area in south Florida, so I decided to give it a shot.

I signed up for the seller lead system about 4 months ago with a modest advertising budget and was off to the races.

My account rep scheduled a welcome call for me, which helped me get everything set up correctly and we went through my system for converting leads which my team does well at with buyer leads. This alone was impressive to me.

Then the leads started coming in fast. Most are people who own who are looking to see their property's market value and aren't looking to sell for a few months, which isn’t a bad thing. I found this to be helpful in setting appointments and giving them a market report and cma, and getting them to sign a listing agreement that doesn't take place for a few months.

I've listed 4 homes so far with an avg list price of 450k and have 3 more listing appointments set for the next few weeks. I have hundreds of leads and I know there are even more opportunities in there that I haven't found yet.

The roi with this system is too good to ignore and the tools and landing pages that are included are worth the 199 price alone. All in all, it is a great product and the team there is very responsive and helpful and always have helpful tips to share or new templates or features to show.

I love boldleads!

Total game changer! I've never had so many leads in my 12 years in the business and I have already closed 4 sides and am listing another home tomorrow morning.
