first anybody who calls themselves a "solid" connection in leads is trying to blow smoke up your as from the go. There are only a handful of places that actually compile consumer/business data like that, then there are MANY resellers of the same data. I have gotten leads from here: ListExpress It is an axciom company. You can do the search and purchase of leads yourself which was real nice to sort by geographic area (zip code, city, state), 2 yr age bands 18-80, everything. They should have something for student loans, but might have to call them.
You can also try: ReferenceUSA They have lots of consumer data that you need, but also business data. I get free access to this, hoovers, and others online through my public library! Or you can go direct to dnb.com
People selling leads have always been shady and negotiable on things.
My name is Steve. " yes I am as solid as they come" when it comes to generating leads. I have been in telemarketing for over 20 years. I did lead generation the old way before technology made it easy. I have developed leads for Real Estate Agents, Insurance Companys.
