Since a lot of people asked me what the best kind of leads are, the best kind of return of investment, etc., I invited my good friend Leon McKenzie from US Probate Leads.

Leon McKenzie is the chief operating officer at US Probate Leads, a company he co-founded 12 years ago. The company has grown to become the leading provider of probate leads for virtually every county in the United States, using a national network of researchers who collect data directly from individual probate courts each month.

In this episode, Leon shared how they collected, sorted, and organised probate leads. He also discussed probate and its process.
