Prospectiv Reviews

Avoid at all costs Offer refunds as part of their contracts and do not refund

Wow what I can say what a poor poor experience I ve had with Prospectiv Initial communication I had with Arun in their business development team was great I met with Arun on a few occasions I run a lead generation agency I know ironic using another lead gen company to generate leads for lead gen but as with any agency your own marketing always comes last when you put your customers first hold on to that thought We agreed on a campaign for 3 months where they guaranteed a certain number of leads each month and if not then they offer a refund on the money invested in the campaign Now having run lead generation campaigns for the last 15 years and never giving a guarantee on the number of leads generated I was sceptical however comforted by the fact that if it didn t work then we would get a refund Well what can I say I had some communication with Elizma our Account Manager and meetings every two weeks After two months and no leads I said to Elizma why don t we stop here it s clearly not working why pay for another month when you re only going to have to refund it anyway At this point I asked to speak with Prospectiv s Managing Director David Sinclair-Black and was told that he does not speak to customers Wait what He doesn t care about his customers and their success well you can only imagine what alarm bells that set off Anyway I was told by Elizma that we have to honour our side of the agreement - fair I signed an agreement and was told that at the end of the agreement should they not generate the leads for that month and the previous two then I would get a refund on the leads minus any that they do generate I reluctantly agreed although did say to Elizma that I was confident that we would still be in this position Surprise surprise at the end of the third month guess what still no leads As such I asked Elizma for the full refund to which Elizma came back with a counter offer as they we re having cashflow problems sorry I declined the counter offer and finally managed to speak with David via email he won t jump on a phone call He explained the cashflow issues and that they simply could not afford to give the refund in full at that point not my problem but what could I do We initially agreed on a 50 payment in November and 50 in December David also explained why he felt the campaign didn t work an exact copy from his email David from Prospectiv here I m out regarding your due refund I m very grateful you put forward a 50 50 split between November and December However I must ask as we re in a very tricky spot if we have one more chance to not only fulfil our contractual obligations to the number of leads we generate for LGS but more to make up for this mistake of mine Unfortunately having been solely provided inboxes by Microsoft in May of this year recent sending policy changes meant that your emails along with our own weren t seen This is my bad and something I will never overlook again Fortunately we have fixed this issue We ve learned that switching to Google and only reaching Google accounts allows us to average a 6 reply rate and a 1 lead rate see screenshots attached of our current campaigns These are campaigns we re running for ourselves as you can see this week too If we were to contact 30 000 prospective businesses this month for you it would mean we generate circa 300 pre-qualified leads in a few short weeks I promise to make this up for you and some more Can we give this one more shot I declined the offer having lost all confidence in their ability to generate leads not only this but their route to market is email marketing how can you overlook delivery rates When I declined the offer David then asked to split the payment over three months I won t bore you with all the details but eventually agreed on a payment plan To date I ve only had 50 of the 1st instalment of the refund and the last two payment dates have been and gone No word from David no response no money no anything So my advice avoid this company at all costs not only can they not generate leads but if and when they don t they won t give you the refund even though it is in their agreement Absolute con artists Without Prejudice -

David at the team we re great from the start very accommodating to a business that s had bad experience with marketing agencies before Always enthusiastic and came away from every call with great ideas Lots of leads generated and great calls had

A Necessity for Our Business

Prospectiv s approach to lead generation is exceptional Their team takes the time to understand our unique needs and goals ensuring that the strategies implemented are tailored specifically to our business Their ability to listen and adapt to our requirements is a necessity for us and it made us feel valued as a client

Super pro-active team at Prospectiv

Super pro-active team at Prospectiv been a pleasure working with them so far and long may it continue From launch we closed our first bit of business within 4 weeks which meant they had paid for themselves almost instantaneously in our books

18 9k sales in the first month

David and his team have been fantastic - they did a really deep dive into targeting a specific market with us then wrote copy that has led to 20 meetings in the first month 4 weeks in and we ve just closed an 18 9k deal directly from Prospectiv s work I can t recommend them highly enough - this is our first foray into outreach marketing and they made it super easy and a no brainer to continue working with in the long term

Great to work with

I v been recently working with David at Prospectiv and I love the setup and the results David is always available and quickly react to make the best out of every month

Leads are no longer an issue

I have been working with Prospectiv for a little over a month now The number of leads coming in is great and we have officially signed a new client from their efforts They are great at giving you feedback taking on yours and helping you adjust your audience if needed I am targeting a fairly niche group and was told by other companies that I need to broaden my search However Prospectiv came with confidence that they could help me connect with the people I wanted and they have
