		<description>I&#039;d like to pick up on the comment that lead generation and prospecting aren&#039;t necessarily the same thing.  Prospecting implies cold calling strangers.  An activity that delivers a decent ROI for very few agents and is a demoralizing waste of time for many more.  The better alternative is lead generation by calling those people in your database that you already have some level of relationship with.  These calls are focused on broadening and deepening the relationships you have with the people that can genuinely impact your business - past clients, referral sources and those with the potential to become one or the other (or both) with the right relationship nurturing.  This type of calling usually has a  much higher ROI and is the best form of lead generation.

A business directory is also a great way to establish yourself as the expert in all things home related in your area.  It lets you add value after the sale by helping your client find the best home-related services in your area.  The more you help them, the more they value their relationship with you.  And those in your business directory that you recommend have a good chance to become clients themselves.

Of course, at the heart of either of these approaches is a solid contact management system.  One that is easy to us, helps you keep in touch with contacts in a meaningful way.  If you agree with this approach, IXACT Contact ixactcontact.com is worth checking out.</description>
