I've been trying a number of methods for lead generation. Picking up business cards from neighboring towns and cities, using google to find small corporations, using lead generation tools online, looking at business directories online. Everytime I try to use the email cold approach to reach them, I'm met with radio silence. I've sent about 25 emails a day for the past month or so and I've only had 2 people respond, neither of which actually wanted a website.
