That is the problems with forcing or bribing people to give up a bit of their privacy.

When they are ready they will send their info.

I always give bogus info unless I might want to do business with the site.  I don't want any more sales calls than I have to!

P.S.  I absolutely HATE having to register on a website to get a download or info.  Big problem with IT sites, not so much in real estate.

Interestingly enough, Debbie, the percentage of people I get with bogus names or partial names/initials is very small compared with the total. Same goes for the email addresses they leave and/or phone numbers. But phone numbers have more of chance of being bogus.

We do not require sign ups.  We just have a spot that customers can voluntary contact us/sign up for appt.    I don't think we get any bogus info but occasionally we get typos.  Thankfully, most put in both their phone number and email so usually we can reach them.

Debbie - I haven't required any registration as of yet, but am considering developing some lead capture pages where I send info to prospects to see how that goes. I would imagine that I would get a lot of fake names and numbers, but I guess we will see.

I do require registration after viewing 3 homes, and often get bogus information, and I immediately delete them.  NEXT.

Some bogus emails as well as bogus phone #s. I would say that on my Kunversion site it's less than 10%
