Kasra Dash: Today we're going to be talking about the fastest way to generate leads. I’m joined by James, and we’re going to go over a few different strategies on how you can start generating leads as quickly as possible for your business. James Dooley: I’ll kickstart it. The fastest way to generate leads today would be teaming up with a lead generation company that’s already generating leads in your industry. Go research the best lead generation company for plumbers, electricians, solar installers—whatever niche you’re in. They should already have leads flowing today. I’m slightly biased since I’m the founder of FatRank, and we do lead generation across many industries throughout the UK. So if you’re looking for consistent inquiries today, we might be able to help. Just fill in the form, tell us where you want the leads and what services you provide, and that’s a great fast-start method. Another approach is diversifying. Team up with multiple lead generation providers. You can also use platforms such as Checkatrade, Bark, TrustATrader, or MyBuilder. These can all work depending on your niche, but you must track your KPIs. Kasra, what’s another fast way for someone who needs leads today? Kasra Dash: Paid advertising. You’ve got platforms like Facebook ads where you can run lead forms. When people scroll Facebook or Instagram, they see an ad—something like, “Did you know there’s a solar panel grant available?” They click, fill out the form, and you instantly get their contact information. It’s fast, and there are plenty of YouTube tutorials on how to set up Facebook lead forms. Another fast method is PPC. Both PPC and Facebook ads can deliver leads quickly, but you need to be aware of potential low-quality leads. That’s where fine-tuning your funnel becomes important, improving conversion rates, and ensuring you target the right audience. Every strategy has its pros and cons. James Dooley: If someone is searching for the fastest way to generate leads, it usually means they’re desperate and need leads today. Aside from fast methods, I’d also recommend thinking long-term—what I call fast money vs. slow money. Slow, long-term strategies like SEO, brand building, collecting reviews, and consistent social media content matter too. But when it comes to the fastest methods, it really comes down to two things: paid ads and lead generation companies. You can try outbound methods like mass email campaigns, contact form submissions, or cold calling. The issue is outbound vs. inbound conversion rates—an inbound lead is more than 10x more likely to convert than an outbound one. That’s why I’m not a huge fan of cold outreach. I prefer inbound methods: lead generation companies and paid ads. If you’re looking for the fastest way to generate leads, we hope this video helped. Leave a comment if you think there are other fast methods we haven’t covered.
