Why use Directlend AI for lead generation?
Directlend was built by marketing experts in the organic content space. We were tired of building and scaling systems for every company that reached out to us and then having to maintain all of their systems, over and over again.
Instead, we decided to build our own marketing engine, but with a twist.
Using the data, knowledge, and insights we have from the small business lending industry, we built an AI matchmaking algorithm that not only scores and matches the business owners (applicants) but also our partners, the lead purchasers.
​
This allows us to match our applicants with the top lenders that are most qualified for them, and provides you with the most qualified lead for your business - it works in perfect harmony for all parties.

Tips to grow your small business loan broker business
With so much competition in the space, finding the right lead partner can be a huge challenge. Most brokers rely on bulk aged data that is loaded with false information and TCPA traps.
At Directlend, we specialize in generating real-time leads that are interested now. We sort through the clutter for you and only send you the leads that have actually demonstrated interest in a business loan product.
​
Getting into the business loan space, especially in real-time leads, can be challenging. Here are some tips we want to share before getting started:
1) Lead nurturing
There are many different ways to nurture leads, but in the real-time lead space lead nurturing is taken to a whole new level. Having the agents, and more importantly the systems in place to manage your leads is critical.
​
If you need help with this, contact slaterockautomation.com for lead nurturing and automation systems.
2) Speed to lead
If you're new to the world of real-time business loan leads, speed to lead is the name of the game. Especially if you dont already have automated systems to integrate. Having your agents be ready to handle applicants when they are hot can be the difference of closing that deal or not.
3) Product diversification
Although we score our leads using dozens of business data points, having very strict criteria for your leads can be detrimental to your lead purchasing campaigns. Heres why... we have consulted companies purchasing from Lendingtree and Nerdwallet. Both have a huge amount of volume, but when you tighten your filters too much, you narrow down the type of lead too much. This closes the door for other opportunities outside of those parameters.
​
One of our clients, changed their RLA (request loan amount) filter and increased their total fundings from 40k the previous month to 65k the next - huge improvement!

Directlend Business Loan Leads FAQ
How do we generate business loan leads?
Great question, we generate leads through a variety of sources including organic content marketing, paid media, and direct outreach. All of these efforts direct back to our lead magnet, and lend-match technology. Want to learn more about our lead gen efforts? Schedule a call with us here​
I'm a new business loan broker, will this even work?
First, welcome to the industry! It's the wild west, our background is in digital marketing, and it's very different than the alternative finance space. The good news is, as long as you have the right systems and programs in place, it doesn't matter if you are a team of one or forty; our leads are simply looking for funding. If you can help them acquire that capital, you'll do just fine.
What type of leads does Directlend offer?
Currently, Directlend AI is only focusing on the small business lending aka the alternative finacing space. In the future, there are plans to move into mortgages (this is the reason we created Directlend, we faced challenges securing the right type of financing, which caused us to lose out on a real-estate deal). Because they didn't have a lend-match system, we built our own!
What are the benefits of buying leads from Directlend?
Some of the main benefits include not worrying about TCPA issues or having to deal with the fee's associated with bulk outreach. (some of our clients spend over 20k per month just to send text messages) We handle the outreach and you handle your sales pipeline.
Are your business loan leads exclusive?
Directlend offers lead exclusivity if that's preferred, but based on our experience with customers and previous consulting roles, there are many pitfalls with exclusive leads, the main one being pricing. We sell you the leads cheaper than it costs is to generate it on your own. How? It's because our leads are matched to 3 funders total, allowing us to provide options to our customers (the merchants) and supply leads to you at a fair price.
