MainStreet Leads
What we're building
A subscription lead-generation service for independent insurance agencies across the US: we deliver exclusive, local, qualified leads (and booked appointments) on a monthly retainer — predictable new customers for them, recurring revenue for us.
Strategy foundation (working draft — not yet owner-ratified)
The strategist's core strategy (/home/team/shared/strategy-core.md) recommends:
- Model: retainer-first hybrid — flat monthly retainer as the anchor, booked-appointment tier as the strategic core, pay-per-lead as the low-friction entry.
- USP: exclusive, local, pre-qualified prospects (and booked appointments) on a flat retainer — positioned against shared-lead marketplaces, not other marketing agencies.
- Beachhead: personal-lines independent P&C agencies (auto + home) in one metro; small commercial / BOP as upsell to the same buyer; final expense and Medicare deferred.
- $59/lead pay-per-lead entry; $497/mo retainer (12 leads); $1,297/mo (8 booked appointments); $2,497/mo (16 appointments + account mgmt); $199 overage appointments. Blended gross margin target 45–55% — all assumptions to be validated with the first 3–5 clients.
