Re: Stay Away From Bob Vila & Leads.com


Agreed. Started out a year ago with them and had decent luck, then it went downhill. On top of it, the costs of the leads almost doubled when they signed on Bob Vila....Still same crappy, recycled SM leads though.

Re: Stay Away From Bob Vila & Leads.com


we signed up a while ago,...for $150.00---with the promise they'd keep sending us leads to select from, and we'd get to choose 10 leads for that initial investment of $150...

--all we ever received was "screen repairs",......storm door installs,....and garbage like that.

I still like that guy! I see him on a Monitor at Sears selling Craftsman tools...Dude can sell...he's the Spanish version of Billy Mays, but without all the screaming.

He has a Lead selling business or is he just the spokes hole?!
