Transcript

Lead generation is a pay to play system. Okay, so I've generated over 1 million leads on social media across Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Tabula and many more. You know, I have an agency that generates over 80,000 leads per month as a group. But where will they come from in 2026? There's lots of talk around organic versus paid. And the system that you have to understand is it's a pay to play system. So Facebook, Meta, all of their revenue comes from advertising. So if you run a business today and you're generating leads without paying Facebook any money, would they be okay with that? The fact is no, because that's where they make their money from. So they will favour companies that are spending money on ads, right? Because that's where all of the revenue is coming from.
