Can someone tell me if these numbers make sense on my cold calls?

If This is accurate and on par with what is happening in the market please let me know, but it honestly seems pretty wastful, but I am not as experienced as most.


Last60 day call log report and this is what I have:

In the last 60 days I have:

5129 - Skip Traced Addresses

11,245 - Numbers received

out of those 11, 245 numbers: .82% (92 numbers) came in as "leads" maybe 5-9 actually wanted to sell.

91.08% of the 11,245 numbers I called, I never spoke to a live person.

I am not a veteran at any of this, but I think there must be a breakdown somewhere. If not, I need a new marketing strategy or new market, because these numbers make absolutely NO SENSE!!! 

I am serious about success, but what I seem to be doing is wasting serious money at the moment. Please give any advise you have.

All of my investors making cold calls, which system are you using for skip tracing, what system are you using to make calls, how many numbers do you usually get back and what is your contact rate, and your motivated seller rate? If my rate is accurate I will continue, but what are you contact rates for cold calls?
