How often, when you are looking for help, advice or information, do you ‘Google it'? If you're anything like me then it's about 95% of the time!
This means that as a service provider if you are not getting found on the web and converting visitors to clients then you are missing out on a constant (and growing) stream of new clients!
Making Internet Marketing work hard for you is not just about SEO and being #1 in Google, although these are factors. What about when visitors land on your site:
-
How will you quickly build rapport with them and engage them enough to keep them on your site and encourage them to take the next step?
- How will you build a great list of qualified prospects and regularly keep in touch with them?
- How will you effectively integrate your website and blog with all the different social media?
- How will you turn visitors to ideal clients while you sleep - and play?!
The answers to these important questions and many, many others will be revealed in my 1-day ‘How to turn your website into a client magnet' workshop.
In this practical, hands-on workshop I will reveal the secrets to ensuring that not-only do you get found by your target market, you also convert them to clients with ease, grace authenticity.
Imagine the impact on your client list and your bank balance when you:
- Have a website that generates qualified leads where ever you are and whatever else you are doing
- Have a dynamic tool that sells your services and products for you
- Know how to constantly bring qualified leads to your site ... and convert them to clients
- Have recouped your investment in your website, over and over!
- Really stand out from your competition and are positioned as the expert in your field
- Have utilised your knowledge and expertise to make money while you sleep
Some people believe that for service providers such as coaches, therapists and consultants, their website can be nothing more than a static brochure and that it can't really do the job of selling for them. My own experience tells a different story and when I launched my first coaching website about 80 - 90% of new business came directly through my website and the feedback I received enabled me to ensure that not only do I continue to do this for my own businesses, I can do the same for my clients too and ensure their services don't remain a well-kept secret!
What next?
The worst thing you can do is wait and hope that the clients will just appear; and the best thing you can do is to learn how to market your business in a way that's dynamic, cost-effective & flexible; and that works!
Come and join us on the 26th February and I'll show you how!
What do I know?!
With over 20 years of Marketing, IT and Coaching experience; working with a variety of companies from large multi-nationals to sole-traders with much in between, I have the knowledge and practical experience to help small companies grow their businesses step-by-step through effective marketing and a positive mindset.
I am passionate about helping service professionals to become more successful through highly effective marketing and a 'can do' mindset'
My clients constantly tell me how easy I make things that they had previously avoided because the considered them to difficult or technical. My aim with this workshop is to show you how easy it is to turn your website into a dynamic sales tool!
By the end of this 1-day practical and inspirational workshop you will:
- Have the knowledge and confidence to write your own effective web copy
- Know how to easily drive free qualified leads to your site
- Have a simple and effective strategy to ensure constant sales from your website
- Understand the secret to building an emotional connection with your audience
- Be able to utilise your knowledge and expertise to make money while you sleep
- Be delighted at how easy it can be!
- Have the motivation and knowledge to turn your website into a dynamic sales tool that is both flexible and cost-effective
- How to utilise social media to grow your business and your database
