Afternoon everyone!

I'm moulding an idea that I am preparing to execute on via the first Interstate, the internet. I'm trying to decide what format is best for garnering the most business. I can complete this web service as a lead generation site like MJ's limo site was, or I can use a brokerage system similar to Elance or odesk. Can someone with experience give me some feedback about the horsepower of these methods and the time investment? For instance, is lead generation more time intensive because I have to contact pharmaceutical companies individualy to get them to review and buy my leads, or is it more time intensive to just get the buying party (pharmaceutical companies) and sellers together and take a commision on each sale?

Thanks for any input!
