Why Relying on One Lead Source Can Destroy Your Business (Lead Generation Mistake You Must Avoid)

Hi,
It’s Artin.
If there’s one thing that can make or break a business, it’s this:
The number 1 is the worst number in business.
One staff member.
One computer.
One IT guy.
One client.
And most dangerously…
One source of leads.
Years ago, I was running a real estate business. We started small with Google Ads, around $10/day. Fast-forward a few years and we were spending several thousand dollars a month…
Profitably.
Google Ads became our entire lead machine. And because everything was working smoothly, I got busy with fulfillment and didn’t bother building any other traffic sources.
Then one random Tuesday morning, I opened my laptop and saw an email from Google:
“Account Paused.”
Some random Google employee reviewed our account and decided to shut it down.
I figured, “No big deal. I’ll just call support.”
Yeah… about that.
Turns out you can’t get a human on the phone, even when you’re spending close to $1,000/day.
So I submitted a ticket.
Then another.
And another.
This went on for 7 months.
And during those 7 months, my business got absolutely crushed, all because I relied on one lead source.
If you depend 100% on referrals…
Or Meta ads…
Or Google Ads…
Or word of mouth alone…
You’re sitting on a ticking time bomb.
I’ve lived through that disaster.
You don’t want to.
Build multiple streams of leads.
Because one is the worst number in business, by far.
Talk soon,
Artin
