For those in the lead gen/service business space:

What tools or processes do you (or your clients) currently use to respond when a lead comes in? What do they/you think of that tool/process? Primarily focused on the point of time of first response but open to hearing full flows.

I've had a half-baked idea for something in the space for a while and recently come across a potential opportunity to acquire in the same space of this idea. However when I ran my service business I just stayed glued to my email personally and tried to respond as fast as possible - no tech. So you can see this question as a bit of due diligence.

Wondering what others do.

For those getting leads for clients, a second question. What would you say is the average time to respond for your clients and do they ever respond too slow to nab a lead you got them (and presumably they are paying for)?
