Overview

Riafin generates leads through three distinct sources. Understanding each helps you prioritize and acquire the right prospects for your practice.

Lead Sources Overview

Riafin offers three distinct sources for acquiring leads. All leads must be purchased from the marketplace, though retail unmatched leads may count toward your monthly free limits if you're on a paid subscription plan.

Three Lead Sources

1. System-Matched Leads

2. Unmatched Prospects

How They Work:

  • Questionnaires submitted by users not yet matched with you specifically

3. Meeting-Booked Prospects

How They Work:

  • High-intent users who have already scheduled a consultation with a system-matched advisor within the cooling-off period
  • Users have booked a meeting through the platform
  • Premium tier with higher engagement likelihood
