MaxLeads compared with other lead generation companies.

Most business owners care about results and not vanity metrics when it comes to marketing. Other lead generation companies typically maximise their profits by offering their leads to more service providers (often 3-5+), using credit/token systems to hide the true lead price, charge a commission or require a 6-12 month lock in contract commitment.
