Leads are the fuel source for the SFG system, putting agents in front of buyers and eliminating the need for most of the prospecting common in the insurance industry. OPT! is SFG’s custom lead management system, which allows agents to purchase leads and manage their lead/client database from the very first phone call through the sale and application submittal. Your mentors are here to assist you in creating a lead order that will fit your goals!

- Agents not meeting these qualifications may order leads through OPT! by clicking on the “Order Leads” tab, and will receive leads within 24-48 hours.

When distributed to a standing order, 2 CI Leads are counted as 1 A Lead. If a sale is not made on a CI Lead within 5 weeks of distribution as an A Lead, it rolls into the 3A bonus lead category. A CI Lead not distributed within 21 days of receipt rolls to the 5A bonus lead category (therefore, a CI lead found in the 5a or 4a category has never been distributed). Once introduced to the bonus categories, a CI Lead follows the same schedule as all mortgage leads.
