Spent $800 on a lead gen tool that flopped completely
Back in 2021 I bought into this AI lead scraping tool for my SaaS consulting. It was supposed to pull qualified contacts from LinkedIn automatically. After three months of garbage data and bounced emails I had spent $800 and got zero actual meetings. The tool kept pulling random job titles that had nothing to do with my niche. Anyone else get burned by a fancy lead gen platform that promised the moon?

Man, that's painful. It's kind of the same pattern with a lot of these flashy tools though - they promise a shortcut but skip the actual work of understanding who you're selling to. I've noticed that in so many areas, people just want a button to push instead of building real relationships.

Exactly! It's like people forgot how to just talk to each other.
