Biz-find introduces contact leads for business

CHATUCHAK, Thailand - May 5, 2014 - PRLog -- Biz-find moves into B2B Leads

Biz-find the directory based website based in UK, and with websites growing fast in the ASEAN region, has recently made a statement to the press that they are now providing a Business to Business (B2B) and some Consumer to Business (C2B) lead referrals.

“Some business owners would say it’s the natural progression to provide more services and many business frameworks are somewhat predictable in what’s coming next” We were told by Alan Johnston the Director of the Biz-find Franchise worldwide.

“The contact leads we are now providing, here : http://biz-findthailand.com/classifieds/ is an evolutionary result of many different things we have tried, and it is proof to me, that if you are consistent and keep trying many things, the right door will eventually open.

Five years ago when we started dabbling in the online marketing arena we had a ‘has and wants’ section on contactbangkok.com, and we wanted to marry people who wanted stuff to people who were selling, but then, it was so expensive to find a developer to help us create it, now thankfully, it is completely different arena, and developers are many and are much more competitively priced.

It’s a simple process of asking business when they sign up on the directories what they are looking to buy for their business, if they tell us and provide us with a buying lead; we upgrade their listing for the first lead, and then pay roughly $3.50 for each subsequent lead they give us.

We are actually providing a financial incentive to business to give us leads, we then can help them receive competitive quotes for that request as we post the leads on our classifieds section, and sellers buy the leads, as far as I have seen nobody is doing this.

If you are an estate agent, or an accountant or you sell office furniture or whatever, I would certainly log in regularly to see the classifieds leads page, because we receive leads daily, and they are all categorised and localised to areas within that country website. Now we will have details of the lead and more exactly what they are looking for. We charge around $15 for the lead and provide free; anymore that arrive within their category within 30 days, and the seller is informed by email when a lead has arrived.

We have been involved in business databases and directories for nearly ten years now and technology has made many things possible, and I am happy that we are not just a boring old directory, sure our SEO is world class and just by adding your business for free to a Biz-find site, your SEO rank is improved greatly, but really, there has to be more to make people stay, and we now have just that; we have a mix of people asking for suppliers to supply them with products and services,  and you as a seller just have to get there first!” Mr Johnston told us.

Biz-find was launched in UK in 2012 as a parent project and now the UK website is within the top 0.01% of all websites for popularity, according to Alexa. Thailand was launched March 2013 and Myanmar, Vietnam and Philippines directories were all launched in 2013. They provide business categorised listings of registered businesses in those countries and also have many business articles written by members. Their contact leads system was introduced in March 2014.
