Do you buy Leads?

[Sara Campbell]

Hey! Short version: Do you think buying leads is worth it? Where do you buy them from?

Long version: I'm a relatively new agent just trying to generate more income for my investments. I'm having a really hard time generating my own leads. I'm really confident in what I know but pretty bad at talking to people and selling myself as an agent. I also just moved to my location a year ago so I don't even know that many people here to begin with. I'm starting to get discouraged and I'm paying fees out the wazooo it feels like to maintain my license! I'm wondering if I should double down and buy some leads or cut my loses and just let my license go. I also just feel stupid talking to my husband and investing more money in this venture when I haven't gotten a single sale... He's super cool and encouraging but I hate the feeling of being a drain on the finances. Anyone have an opinion?
