It was a lengthy process, and they were getting frustrated. According to Mike, “We interviewed with four or five different lead management systems out there, but they were all either too expensive or lacked the software capabilities we were looking for. Most were also almost entirely focused on lead sellers, which didn’t make much sense for us as a buyer. Lead Prosper was just getting up and running, but we were lucky enough to stumble onto them a few pages down in the search results, and their platform delivered what we needed at a great value.”",[10,60,61],{},"We may never know what Jared was doing on page three of the Google results (seriously dude, who does that?), but we’re grateful for the opportunity to help them improve access to capital for a huge portion of the workforce.

He needed $800 for the repair, but with his primary source of income out of commission, he was looking at renting a car for an additional $500 per week while he saved up the cash—until he came across Giggle.

They really helped explain the whole process to us, from both a tech and a logistics\u002Foperations perspective.”",[10,71,72],{},"Mike agrees, highlighting two features that make the Lead Prosper product stand out: “Their UI, because it makes it super easy for us to operate and manage our business, and their support.
