Expensive Skip Tracing = More #s OR better #s?

[Mike Schorah]

Does more expensive skip tracing identify more phone numbers or better phone numbers?

I’m using Mojo skip tracing right now which is $50/month. I know Batch is $.15/lead to skip trace.

My contact rate with Mojo skip tracing is 8%. I have a 3% bad number rate. If I land a deal, it wouldn’t be worth it to pay for Batch Skip Tracing at $.15/lead if I’ll still keep a 8% contact rate.

But out of a list of 10,000, only about 3,000 are identified through Mojo skip tracing. About 4,000 are on the DNC list and the rest are unidentified. Would better skip tracing through Batch return more phone numbers?

I’m calling 10,000-15,000 numbers a month. That’s $50/month with Mojo skip tracing or $499-$750/mo with Batch skip tracing. Is it really worth paying all that extra money?
