Summary

Pinterest cost Igor up to $7 a click and produced subscribers who opted in but never bought. Reddit and Quora flooded him with clicks that refused to engage. In this episode, Igor walks through the traffic sources that failed him — and turns those failures into the single most important lesson about lead generation: no traffic source is one-size-fits-all, and the platforms that work today won't work the same way tomorrow.
