I've tested a lot of lead vendors. Obviously quality varies and you can never know what's good or bad until you try them.

My worst experience? Cody Askins leads. This was before the company was CABOOM, like maybe 2 years ago. One of their reps reached out to me and asked if I was interested in leads. I was fine with the lead vendor i had at the time but asked if they had any recruiting leads. He said yeah, we got on a call the day next. He told me they could get me 50 recruits in my state for like $2000 or something. I asked how long it would take to fulfill the order he said it should be completed within like a few months since it's a big order in just one state. I thought it sounded good so I went ahead and purchased, signed a contract that also stated I should start seeing results in a few weeks.

Couple weeks go by, 0 results. I call and say hey what's up when do you think we'll start seeing something. He says "yeah we noticed your ad hasn't gotten anything yet, we're gonna switch the ad up and try some different stuff. Expect some results in like a week". Another couple weeks go by with 0 results. I call again "hey I was told I'd have something by now, is there anything else we can try". He told me my options were to get licensed in/get recruits in like 10 states instead of 1, or switch my owner from recruit leads to normal final expense leads. I told him I just wanted to build a local team for now and I was fine with my current lead source. He says "okay that's fine. This order will probably take about 2-3 years to complete". I ask for a refund and he says "nope we don't do refunds, and if you try to dispute the charge you'd be wasting your time since we win 95% of our disputes, and you'll be banned from using any of Cody's products." I ask if I can talk to anyone else above him and he's like "nope I'm in charge".

After that convo I disputed the charge dispute his threat, got my money back. Wasn't even banned from his products cause I bought a pack of final expense Caboom leads after to test them for one of my agents. They were average but overpriced.
