Lead Gen Vertical in Senior Care Business Explained

Eric Beer 00:00
To me, it’s just so simple, but I’ve been doing it for so freakin’ long that like, I have to like, come and remind myself to tell you guys all about this and how it works, so that you can realize like the opportunity, realize, like, you guys can do this, you really can do this. And it can be done in any vertical.

I spent the last 17 years building my eight-figure performance business without using any of my own money, working with some of the most brilliant direct response marketers in the world today. Now I’m looking for entrepreneurs to join my affiliate army built on ethics, transparency, and good old hard work. Join me to change the perception of how people view the greatest business in the world, affiliate marketing, and follow along as I learn, apply, and share performance marketing strategies, working with some of the brightest people on the planet. My name is Eric Beer, and welcome to the Performance Marketer podcast.

What’s up, what’s up everybody how you guys doing? Welcome to the channel. My name is Eric Beer every day on this channel, we talk about performance marketing, we talk about arbitraging media, and we talk about how to create cash flow, how to get qualified leads. And today I want to come and talk to you about the polls show that I just came from in Las Vegas, and give you guys a little bit of insight on what I’m seeing in the market where people are making some money. And some things that I learned. And I just, I felt like one of the things that was really important, was just trying to trying to explain to you guys like how a lead gen vertical works.

OK, because it seems like you guys are asking me all these questions all the time about, you know, what should I do? What leads should I generate? Where should I generate them? Who do I sell them to? And all good questions. Oh, really good questions. But it all starts with ultimately, what is the actual offer that you’re creating? Who are you going to look to help? What is the person in the marketplace? Who is going to be that lead? OK. And then once you can kind of figure out somebody that could be a lead, you also need to see who are the buyers? And what’s that market look like? And can you create a business around it? You know, I’ll give you a few examples of some of the ones from just talking to people at the show that triggered some ideas for me. And I thought it was just a good example for trying to explain it to you guys. So, sitting with a guy who I’ve known for a really long time, we’re kind of going back and forth talking a bunch of things. And he mentioned a thing called A Place for Mom, a place to call home for mom, something like that. I forget, I forget the exact thing. But ultimately, it’s a lead gen portal. OK, someone created a lead gen portal. And they’re a big business. I mean, not since he said that to me, I’ve seen them on TV, I see meds. And ultimately, it’s a lead gen portal for finding elderly people, seniors, homes, right places where they can live, when they’re in either a senior living or some other situation. And the way that it works is they’re driving traffic to a place, A Place for Mom, I think is what it is. They drive traffic to A Place for Mom, they get people to sign up, they give them some information on who’s this for usually, it’s somebody like me looking for my father, right? So, I would fill in information about my dad, some of the details of what I’m looking for. And then I get my information. And immediately, I get a phone call. Alright, I get a phone call from somebody to talk to me about my situation, to then ultimately hold my hand to find a place for my father to go and live need to know the locations and the situation. And then what they do is they have all these deals set up on the back end with all these different companies, right, they can either have their own senior living facilities, where they’re doing it themselves, or they could also have other locations that they have no affiliation with, other than they just did a marketing deal with them by saying, hey, if I am able to get somebody to come to you, and they’re going to sign up and start living with you, and these places are really expensive. What would you be willing to pay me? Right? What would you be willing to pay me for a lead? Or maybe they would get the person to the place where they fill out an application, and then they get them to go and visit the place and start living there? And what would you pay me for someone who’s actually going to sign up to come live in your facility? Right? And, you know, I don’t know what those numbers look like, but that’s a lead gen vertical. That’s Said Simple as that, right? So, it’s like, that’s a highly, highly profitable business, it’s very expensive when you’re putting your parents or someone older into one of these senior facilities. So, I would imagine that there’s a huge allowable for them to pay for leads and customers. So, it’s a really good niche business. So, that’s it, right?

So ways that you can think about it, from your perspective are one, how could I do something similar, if I wanted to create my own lead gen vertical, heck you can, you can create your own lead gen vertical, where you can do the exact same thing, right, and you can call it A Place for Dad, or something. It doesn’t really matter what you call it, target seniors looking to go to some senior facility, or maybe the kids of the parents, or whomever, and then you can go and you can try to get relationships on the back end, to sell those leads and acquire those customers for those facilities. Or you can reach out to A Place for Mom, right? Who’s already got it set up. So, what do you do you just give him a call, and you try to get in touch with the person that’s handling their customer acquisition? And ask them, Hey, would you guys be willing to buy leads? Or what would you pay me, they might have a program, right? I haven’t done that yet. But ultimately, if they did, then they already have the business set up, they’re looking for traffic, they want traffic, maybe they’re doing a bang-up job by themselves. But I promise you there’s, there’s always opportunity there, there’s more traffic to be had, right. And if they have a room, and they’re looking to fulfill in certain areas, they might want to talk to some crazy, awesome media buyers, or people that have a database, and they’d be willing to pay you on a cost per lead, or a cost per sale, cost per acquisition. I don’t know what that number looks like. But if you call you do a little legwork a little bizdev and get on the phone with somebody and tell them, hey, I’m looking to drive traffic to your offer. What are you willing to pay me if I generate a lead for you? They will say XYZ? Or maybe they’ll say, Well, what do you do? Like how are you going to drive traffic? What sources are you going to use? How are you going to get them there, all this stuff, right? And ultimately, if you can go and find a way to get a deal done with them, then at that point, you’re gonna go on online and start generating leads.

And let’s say they will want to pay you and I’m making this up. So, don’t, don’t go to A Place for Mom and say, Hey, you want to pay me $20 A lead, right, but maybe they would pay you $20 as a lead. So, at that point, you can try to figure out a way to go drive traffic to their form, and ultimately do it for less than 20 bucks, right? If you could do it for $15, that means you’re gonna make what 25% for every lead you generate, right? And that’ll be $5, you’ll generate leads for 15 bucks, and then you’ll be able to then sell it for $20 to A Place for Mom. Now, there’s a few different ways you can do that, right? You could either send traffic to A Place for Mom’s link, they would give you a unique link, that’s yours, you would own it, it would be yours, anything that came through there, they know it was from your company, or you could have your own forms, generate the leads, and then post those leads to them. If they’re willing to do that with you, it takes more trust for them to do that. But those are two ways you can do it. Usually the first one’s probably the the one that’s going to be easier for you to get that deal done, where they’re controlling everything, all the traffic is going to their sites. But those are those are ways you can just build a simple little lead gen buzz and start to generate some revenue, right?

And maybe if you wanted to arbitrage it, the other way is, even if you’re not a media buyer, if you can go find traffic that’s relevant for that offer. Well, if they want to pay 20 bucks, you can go to some publisher, who already has traffic, right? This is you arbitraging this media and saying, Hey, you want to run A Place for Mom, I’ll pay you $15 For every cell. Now, if they don’t have that deal or never heard of it, then they might do it. Right. And then they’re ultimately the ones trying to generate the leads for you. And they’re gonna get 15 bucks every time they get you a lead. And then what you’re gonna do is you’re gonna turn around, you’re going to sell it to A Place for Mom for 20 bucks. And that scenario, you’re really not doing much other than coordinating the whole thing, finding the people that have the traffic, getting them to do the work, and then getting the deal set up everything flowing through you, right and then ultimately what would happen is A Place for Mom would pay you and then you would pay your publishers. You always want to control the money, right? You the money flow needs to come through your company. But I mean, those are simple ways for you to just kind of take advantage of like the media arbitrage space and the lead gen space and build a massive, massive business.

Just wanted to kind of come on here and tell you guys that because to me, it’s just so simple, but I’ve been doing it for so freakin’ long that like, I have to like, come and remind myself to tell you guys all about this and how it works. So, that you can realize like the opportunity, realize, like, you guys can do this, you really can do this. And it can be done in any vertical. Right? There’re some things you need to do, obviously, if you want to, you know, arbitrage it simple... Like, low-hanging fruit never did anything in your life, well then go to school, get a deal, and then go get distribution for that deal, right, and maybe someone else does it for you. So, at that point, you’re not buying any media, you’re not spending any money, you’re only paying when the publisher gets you lead, and then you’re getting paid by that advertiser. But there’s value to that. There’re tons of value to that. And then as you start to make money, then maybe you build your own form. Or maybe you drive traffic, by buying traffic yourself, if you start making some money, and you want to use that money to buy some more traffic, you can. You can do that, right. There’s a lot of different options. But so that in a nutshell, is a lead gen vertical. And that’s one of them, I can go over a few other ones. But I just wanted to keep it super short right now. I’ll do some more videos kind of going over other verticals and things that people are doing and some of the problems they’re facing that they came to ask me about. And then you know, some of the ideas and thoughts I had, that I think I can help them with. But for now, that I think that’s enough for you guys to at least have a good idea about the lead gen space, and the opportunities that exist.
