The first section of our information page provides general information related to APS, our guarantee, shipping, list information, contact and other information of interest. More detailed information is available in our frequently asked questions or FAQs sections. APS provides Opportunity seeker/mlm lists and compiled Business Lists.
Our MLM and Opportunity leads are responsive leads. Most first-time clients ask us "Are your leads are fresh and are they HOT?" Those are very good questions and the answer is yes and yes! This answers the next question that we are often asked..."Are your leads responsive leads?" Again, the answer is YES! This is really the best question. We take pride in securing the very best leads for our clients. Anyone can say they have hot or fresh leads. What does that really mean? What you really need are responsive lists from a company like APS who provides a replacement guarantee like we do. Using FRESH RESPONSIVE leads is the only way to go because the only reason you are mailing is to get RESULTS! Good leads are the key to your success!

If you receive any mail back as undeliverable simply return each one within 60 days from the order date and we will replace them 5 for 1. Names with telephone numbers are even replaced on a one for one basis...no questions asked. As we are very conscientious regarding the quality of our lists, beginning in September, we will reimburse postage - see our FAQs section for more information. Unlike some other companies out there, we do not sell old compiled lists as opportunity seeker lists. Our integrity is the cornerstone of our business and we will never knowingly sell a list that does not measure up to our standards of excellence. ShippingWe ship most orders out within 24 hours.

We have been asked what sets APS apart from others who sell mailing lists? We have a guarantee, we operate with integrity, we
are honest in our dealings with clients and we operate in a friendly, responsive and
professional manner. This means that the client knows right away if the
order was successfully processed and if the credit card was accepted. In addition, our server
side programs will automatically generate an email, confirming your order and the details
of the order immediately after the order is entered. That way the client who orders an
opportunity or mlm type list will know that the order was received correctly. A confirming
order number is also provided automatically for reference. What is our replacement policy? Our replacement guarantee applies to US Opportunity Seeker/MLM/Home Business names as follows: US Names and addresses are replaced on a 5 to 1 basis. Names with telephone numbers are replaced on a one-for-one basis. Most other companies will say that all sales are final and in fact you are on your own after the sale. We want you to be satisfied and interested in how your campaign went and we offer our clients a choice of replacement options. Your feedback is valuable as it helps us to better serve you
and monitor the quality Please note that we sometimes have a limited number of Canadian names. Since these are more difficult to acquire, we will replace Canadian names (when available) that are undeliverable on a one-for-one basis. Also, if you purchased a list of names from a specific geo-area, replacements for that area will be provided if available, and from other geographic areas as needed when providing replacements. I am involved in an MLM program, but am not satisfied with my income. How can I find out about other programs - can you put me on one of you opportunity lists or add me to your database? Yes. For sometime now, we have received a steady
stream of requests from people who want to be added to our databases because they want to
receive opportunity offers. So here's what we have done. If you want to receive
Opportunity and/or MLM offers and info, just go to our Guest Book - Opt-in page...it's
also accessible from the HOME page. I don't know what types of lists there are that I can choose from. There are two basic types of lists - broad categories, if you will that most lists will fall into. The first is a respondent list. This type of list is made up of names who have responded to opportunity related offers, including MLM, home business and business opportunity related advertising or offers. The second type of list can be
described as a compiled list. A compiled list is usually a compilation derived
from various sources that can include directories, phone books, registries,
public and private records, government
records and even credit bureaus. Where does APS get opportunity seeker/mlm/home business leads? We develop some of our leads in-house. Our Opportunity related leads are respondents to blind advertising and promotions - names who have responded to opportunity related offers, etc. We have spoken with many individuals who are constantly searching for an honest vendor and who are tired of the poor quality of the leads that are mostly offered by middle-men vendors and even brokers. In all candor, if you order opportunity/mlm/home business leads from a source who cannot tell you how the leads were developed, you are probably just getting old or over-used leads. We have found that most of the respondent leads that are sold, and re-sold, and re-sold, by various vendors/brokers are not very good. That is why we obtain our leads directly from those who do the advertising or from our own advertising campaigns. This means we have actually seen the ads that are are run and the advertising copy that individual respondents have read. So, we can absolutely state that our leads are among the best as we know how they were developed or we actually placed the ads and developed the leads in-house! So, our leads are purchased directly from those who do the advertising or the leads are those that we have acquired from our own advertising in National Print Media. If you have special requirements or special volume considerations, please feel free to contact us as we enjoy Dealer Status with several companies who are recognized for the quality of their leads. If we can't source a list for you from our own databases, we usually know who to contact to find the right list for you. Postage is expensive. How do I know I'll get my money's worth and are your lists free of nixies? It may be impossible to have a mailing list that is 100% free of undeliverables or "nixies" as they are sometime called. We do our best to make sure that your names are deliverable.

guarantees offered by vendors today are totally meaningless. Our customer's satisfaction is our main concern, therefore, APS offers the customer a choice. We will replace any undeliverable address on a 5 to 1 basis. If you experience returns exceeding 7%, we will also reimburse your postage - we will reimburse your postage ( up to .50 per item) when an envelope is returned by the post office marked as undeliverable. Our postage reimbursement plan will go into effect September 30, 1999 and will apply to all lists that were sold beginning September 15, 1999. This start date is predicated on having our tracking software installed and tested by that date. What about names with telephone numbers - do you guarantee the telephone numbers, etc.? This is a fair question and deserves a full answer. We have found that even when we source a Business or Specialized Business list from a major list compiler, that telephone numbers are not guaranteed. This is because of the way that area codes often change and this does affect telephone numbers provided with lists. This is a fair question and deserves a full answer. We have found that even when we source a Business or Specialized Business list from a major list compiler, that telephone numbers are not guaranteed. This is because of the way that area codes often change and this does affect telephone numbers provided with lists.Can you provide me with names from a particular State when I order? If you can, how can I let you know that this is what I want to do? If you want to obtain names from a particular State, we will allow you to select two States on any list of 500 names or more. However, the reality is that it is truly a matter of luck if we have names available in a particular State. This is because the response to any Nationwide print ad cannot be predicted as to who will respond and where they may reside. To request names for a particular State or States, after placing an order online, just send an email to info@leadlists.com to advise us that you wish to have us select names from a particular State or States. Please keep in mind, that in the event that we need to replace nixies and we have provided you with names from a particular area or State, we will try to replace your names from your original preferred area. But if current names are not available, your replacement names may be from an area other than your preferred area. Do you provide opportunity seeker lists that contain respondents from countries other than the United States? At this time most of our respondents reside in the U.S. and some lists will have a few names from Canada. We do not have respondents from other countries at this time as advertising is placed in print media that enjoys a domestic and Canadian distribution. Why are your list prices so low? This question has been posed a few times to us by some experienced and novice list buyers alike. In all honesty, we feel like we will need to raise our prices to cover the expense of the value added features that we provide. We do replace names and will reimburse postage. We do CASS certify our mailing lists addresses. We will verify telephone numbers. We do ship our lists via Priority Mail...not by first class. This all adds up, so you can look for a price increase to go into effect probably in In all honesty, we feel like we will need to raise our prices to cover the expense of the value added features that we provide.

I've noticed several similar web sites that have the same description as LeadLists.com. Can you tell me if these are managed by APS or leadlists and if not, why are they the same? Competing companies often-times rely on
search engines to drive traffic to their web sites. We have noticed
the same "cloning" if you will of our web sites. Our content and
keywords, etc. are copyrighted, but that
doesn't seem to keep others from appropriating winning copy or attempting to use
our key information in an
attempt to improve their rankings. If you notice other websites/companies have "appropriated" our descriptions in whole or
part in some of their web site descriptions including descriptions that appear
in search engine listings: The above description and variations
of The Best! by APS! before the telephone number are to be considered as
copyrighted material along with the presentation and copy and key or meta info found on the
all of our web pages. One thing that sets our description apart is that we
have added the Postage
Reimbursement comment in our descriptions. It may be awhile before this change
is reflected on listings that appear in various search engines. The easiest thing to do add our site, www.leadlists.com to your browser's Bookmarks! How many times can I use a list that I purchase from APS? You can use the list one time unless you request unlimited use in advance. Members of your organization that would like to work the names on your mailing can do so and names can be shared with business partners, etc. The guiding principle is that a mailing list name should only be mailed to, or called one time, other than for follow-up when the person contacted has requested additional information or responded to your initial offer.What is the Secure Order Form used for? The secure online order form can be used to order opportunity seeker-mlm lists. You can either fill in the form, make your selections and print it out and mail it with your check or money order, or, you can actually enter your order online and order using your credit card. Using the online order method is the fastest way to get your order processed and shipped out to you. I've heard that on-line ordering using a credit card is not always safe. Is ordering on-line with APS really secure? I mean can some hacker get my credit card number? If an on-line shopping cart is not setup correctly, it could be a problem. We can't speak for other web sites but we can flatly state that, ordering a mailing list from APS using our Secure Order Form is safe. All of the programming and set-up related to credit card processing was done by professional programmers. Our secure server and credit card processing is managed professionally by one of best web site providers and on-line card processors. Therefore, all credit card information related to your purchase is encrypted and resides only on a secure server. In fact, should you need to setup a web site and want to accept credit cards on-line with the peace of mind of bullet-proof security, we would recommend without any hesitation whatsoever, that you call InterLink Advertising Services (www.hypermall.com) and let their professional programmers go to work for you. If you want to have professional order processing as part of your web site, I'd recommend that you call them today at 1-888-HYPERMALL. Ask for Erik and tell him that we recommended them...he'll get a kick out of that! What's this about free lists? We do offer a free sample list that is
shipped via first class mail...We'll print out 24 leads on ps peel-n-stick
labels or email sample names to you.
That's one way you can try a sample from our current database and it's our way
of saying that we are confident about the quality of our lists.
...Business List Information (FAQs)...
Yes, we do offer Business-to-Business lists. If you need a lists of businesses to mail to, or have a need to target certain types of professionals or geographic regions, we can often be of assistance. In the near future, we will post an updated catalog of Business Lists on this web site that we can source. What are your prices for other types of
Lists - like Business lists? Will a compiled Business list be 100% free of undeliverables? In all candor, we only source from recognized and established List compilers. Our primary compiler passes their databases through address correction software, so the number of deliverables should be reduced. They use CASS certification software that insures that addresses meet U.S. Postal Standards. But, if you expect any list to be totally free of undeliverables, I would suggest that is not a reasonable expectation. What if we need a business list that is more sophisticated - that involves selection of specific types of prospects and selection by segments within a database - is this possible? Yes. We are a registered with one of the best sources for compiled Business lists in the U.S. This means that we have access to just about every type of business list that you might need. For example, if you wanted to mail to manufacturers and/or distributors, and needed to mail to the CEO or CFO or President of companies located in the US, and only target companies with sales in excess of 20 million per year, we can provide you with that list. Here's quick sampling of some of the Compiled Business Lists that we can provide: Professionals including Accountants, Bank Attorneys, Real-Estate Agents, Financial Analysts, Pilots, Manufacturing Companies, Corporate Gift Buyers, Veterinarians, etc., etc. Individuals who purchase using Credit Cards, Mail Order Buyers, Affluent people, Sales and Marketing Seminar prospects, etc. If you would like to have a more complete listing of Business List categories, please send an email to info@LeadLists.com with the subject: request for list of business list categories. Can you provide Targeted Consumer Lists? Yes. For example, if you need to market to affluent,
successful individuals and entrepreneurs, we have access to compiled databases
that will allow you to select prospects by income, family profile info, spending habits,
types of investments, net-worth, etc., etc.!!! If your request falls outside the

opportunity seekers to request info from those who have opportunity offers and MLM
programs to recommend...and now it's available on
