Let’s be honest, getting leads shouldn’t feel like throwing money into a black hole. But if you’re a small business owner, chances are it does. You’ve probably tried boosting posts, hiring a freelancer, or even doing it all yourself. And still… nothing changes.
At Spectruss, we help small businesses like yours turn confusion into clarity, and clicks into real customers. This article walks you through what’s missing and how to finally start generating leads that matter, with support that sticks.
What Is Lead Generation (And Why You Might Be Missing the Mark)
Lead generation means turning strangers into people who are actually interested in your product or service. But here’s the thing: not every click or follow means someone wants to buy.
A real lead is someone who’s ready to reach out. If your inbox is full of junk leads (or totally empty), your approach probably needs some changes.
Why Most Small Businesses Struggle with Getting Leads
Here are the common problems we see:
- Your website is slow or confusingYou’re running ads with no plan (or just hitting “boost” on Facebook)
- You have no system to track or follow up with leads
- Your branding doesn’t feel consistent or professional
Sound familiar? It’s not your fault. You’re focused on running your business, not trying to figure out how online marketing works.
The truth: you don’t need a vendor, you need a partner.
Vendors sell you one thing. Partners create full strategies that support your growth.
At Spectruss, we focus on long-term plans because that’s how real results happen. Our mission is simple: help your small business show up online, build trust, and bring in steady leads.
What to expect when you work with a true marketing partner:
- A plan made just for your business
- Clear updates on what’s working (and what’s not)
- Full support, from visuals to lead follow-up
- A team that’s all in on your success

FAQs About How To Get Leads
How much should I spend on lead generation?
A good starting point is about 5–10% of your revenue. For businesses trying to grow quickly, spending a bit more on targeted strategies makes a real difference.
Do I need both SEO and ads?
If you want leads now and later, using both works best. Ads help short-term, SEO helps you stay visible long-term.
What’s the difference between a lead and a sale?
A lead is someone showing interest. A sale happens when they buy. We help you get both.

Yes, if you’re doing more than just posting. With good targeting and messaging, platforms like Facebook can bring in customers, not just likes.
