Ep. 53 | Turning Old Leads Into New Revenue
What if the leads most companies write off still have real value?
In this episode of The Juice Consumer Direct Podcast, Carson Poppenger and Jacob Thorpe sit down with Drew Warmington, CEO of iLeads and Tova Data, to talk about the evolution of lead generation, data enrichment, customer acquisition, and how better lead intelligence helps businesses recover more revenue from leads they already own.
Drew shares his story from the early days of online lead generation to building data-driven solutions that help companies qualify faster, prioritize smarter, and create stronger conversations with consumers. The conversation gets into how data can improve targeting, how lead scoring helps teams focus on the right opportunities, and why old or unconverted leads should be treated like an asset instead of a sunk cost.
There is also a strong discussion around how enriched data helps contact centers and sales teams build more authority in the conversation, reduce friction, and improve conversion by knowing more before the call even begins.
If you work in lead generation, customer acquisition, mortgage, insurance, home services, sales, or revenue operations, this episode is packed with practical insight on how better data leads to better decisions and better outcomes.
