In 2006, I took a lot of heat for predicting One Trillion Dollars in retail Online Sales by 2012.
According to Emarketer and Nielson Online, Eight out of 10 respondents who had recently made consumer electronics purchases in a brick-and-mortar store said they had visited the store’s Website first. More than one-half said they purchased from the retailer on whose Website they had spent the most time. In addition 58% of respondents said they would choose the Internet for research in purchases before they would even choose their own friends and family.
While this study reported about Electronics, it is not a far reach to think that consumer research will certainly continue to dramatically increase in years to come.
At the Leadpile Lead Exchange, we are seeing consumers’ research under-banked services at exponentially increasing rates.
Look out Trillion! Here it comes!


Teamwork is something that we cannot get away from. It is everywhere even if we don’t realize it. When we are at home with the family we work as a team with everyone doing their job so that the household runs smoothly. On the road we all drive together (even if some don’t want to) to make sure that traffic gets us to where we need to be.
What do you find in a lead exchange? Do you know if a lead exchange is the right place for you? Need leads for your team or even for yourself?
