Hey Amrrs,

Thanks for the valuable suggestions :)

Regarding the comments:

* In the current prototype we are not displaying any contact details as we want to validate how many people are interested in the leads. But with our first version, we are going to provide an ability to contact the lead right from the dashboard. Getting more info about the lead will be the next iteration. We will try to study what information a business owner might want regarding the leads and then carry on from there. The fields you mentioned are very important in my opinion too.

* We will add filters based on demography. We wanted to validate the whole concept and see how many business owners are actually interested. Now we will focus on getting more reliable sources for leads. A lot of facebook/LinkedIN groups have very genuine enquires. Hence, at present we only know about those which are India oriented. We will be researching for other countries now. Once we have good number of reliable sources for different countries, we will work on the demography filter.

* Thank you so much for this! This is an amazing feature and I believe can be targeted at enterprise level companies too. I mean, if I was Costa Coffee, I would definitely want to see who are unhappy with Starbucks or want coffee from our competitors.

* Fees - is a very tricky point at present. The point you made is very valid that a internet sales guy or a telesales executive can get more leads. I think we have to find a balanced price depending on the customer value proposition we provide and how valuable it is to initial businesses who sign up.

Thanks again for your super valuable inputs! :)
