My Name is Michael Gehring, I’m the owner of 2 Guys Tree Service in Fort Wayne, Indiana. I’ve been doing marketing online for almost 10 years now and I started doing local marketing before Google Local (now Google My Business) even existed.

For the past 4 years now, I’ve done marketing mainly just for 2 Guys Tree Service, and I’ve held the number one spot in both the local and organic results for most of that time. I spend less than $800 a year total for advertising including business cards, t-shirts, yard signs, BBB accreditation, and internet marketing. And I get at least 60% more calls and quotes than any of my friends in the area that own tree businesses.

Better than that, I get to “cherry pick” the jobs I want, and because of the way my business systems work, no one can take them from me.

Over the past year I’ve been asked by several of my friends and colleagues that own tree businesses to do for them what I do for myself.

William Mohr of Mohr’s Tree Service offered me $65 an hour for every hour he was on a job that I gave him last winter.

Mike Tippman of Tippman’s Tree Service wanted to pay me $5000.00 to build him a website and get him to the top of Google for “tree service” and “tree removal” in Fort Wayne.

Ben Maggart of B & M Tree Service offered me $1000.00 a week to come work for him as an employee.

One of the partners in another big tree service told me, if he could, he would partner with me because we get more jobs than he does. (I don’t want to get him in trouble with his partner by giving you his name.)

Here’s the part I think is crazy; these guys have bucket trucks, wood chippers, and stump grinders, Ben has a crane, and until recently, we have been doing trees with only 2 trucks and a trailer. (Now I have 2 trucks and 2 trailers.) They can do WAY more work in a year than I can, and as Ben said, “I’ve never seen any tree business as small as yours do this much business”.

So why is the “little guy” in the area giving these guys who have been doing trees literally “all their lives” a run for their money?

Because I have a system that puts me where people are looking for me, when people are looking for me, and only costs me a few hundred bucks and a few hours a year. That makes me VERY competitive with my pricing even though the big guys can get the work done much faster with their big, fancy equipment.

Well, that got me thinking ‘I don’t want to do what I do for me for my competition, but this would be HUGE for any service business in any market’.

And RIGHT NOW is The Perfect Time

Right now 80% of people look for products and services online.

Right now, Google Local is in its prime and people are calling service businesses that are on the first page of those results. 18% click the number one spot, versus 10% to number 2 and 7% to number 3.

Right now, mobile use is growing 20% per year. People are using phones and tablets to search for service businesses and local results are most often what they are seeing when they search so Google Local is the place to be for small businesses, but you have to be on the first page, preferably the number one spot.

Right now, website hosting is cheaper than it’s been in a long time. GoDaddy is selling hosting for a year for only $41.88. That’s 50% off the normal price.

Most service businesses need a constant supply of new customers to stay in business. Web designers, roofers, plumbers, welders, arborists, lawyers, doctors, dentists, carpet cleaners, window cleaners, lawn mowers, snow removers, constructions folks, well and septic people, the list is endless. Almost every service business always needs new customers to stay in business and to grow. And a lot of them are seasonal, the winters are particularly rough.

Even if You already have enough customers to keep you busy, you can still make more money using my system. You bid jobs the way you bid them because you need to stay busy. If you had more quotes to choose from, you could bid jobs higher and make more money working the same number of days.

Even if you are already number one on Google, you can still make more money using my system. You are number one when you search from your home or office, but you’re not number one everywhere in you’re area. I was shocked to find this out for myself. I’m not number one all over Fort Wayne (yet), but I am number one across more of Fort Wayne than everyone else I’ve looked at.

So what do I do for my business exactly?

We didn’t build one website we built several. And they weren’t little tiny sites they were 30,000 page plus sites known as “authority sites” by people in internet marketing. And all of those pages link back to us.

Go ahead, google “Tree Service Fort Wayne” or “Tree Removal Fort Wayne”. You’ll see us in the top spots both in the “natural” listings and the “local” listings. We are on the top of the first page twice without paying anyone, and that is what we want for you too.

Every good authority site has a directory, and for the last several years I’ve been compiling lists of service businesses in the United States. I have millions of businesses in my database.

Lists that would cost you thousands of dollars by themselves from list services.

Over the years I’ve looked at many different directory software sites and didn’t find any that did what the top ranking sites on the internet did both with the content and on the SEO side. So, I built my own and modeled it after the biggest most effective directories online. Sites like Attorneys.com and many top ranking others.

In a nutshell, I’ve spent years studying the top ranking authority sites on the web and made what worked for them, work for me.

That’s it. It’s not rocket science or some secret sauce, but Man Does It Work!

I don’t do any other search engine optimization.

So How Do I know What I Do For Me Will Work For You?

Over the past 10 years I’ve done internet marketing in some of the most competitive industries online like mortgages, real estate, and beauty products. It seems like I’ve sold everything online from adult diapers to T-slotted aluminum framing.

I got out of selling products online because I got tired of manufacturers calling me and threatening to cut off my supplier if I didn’t stop out-ranking them on the search engines and selling their products online.

Service businesses are great to market online because no one is ever going to call me up and threaten to put me out of business because I out-rank them for “tree service”.

But I’ll be honest with you. A year ago, I knew what I did to market 2 Guys Tree Service was working for me, but I couldn’t have told you definitively that the directory sites were the major factor in getting the kind of results that I got.

So I stopped.

I didn’t do anything on my own website for a year. We dropped to number 2 in the organic results right under Pence Tree Service after they redid their entire website last winter. No change in calls, and just a slight drop in quote form submissions on the website.

Then, I let my directory website’s hosting lapse. They went dead. No site, no pages, nothing. Two months later call volume dropped to what my friends in the business told me they were getting. I was still number one in the local results, but I wasn’t number one all over the city and in all the outlying areas we served.(I searched for “tree service” and “tree removal” from area coffee shops, McDonald’s, and Bob Evans and got different results than I got from my office.)

I let that go for a month partly because it was mid-summer and I was busy doing trees, even though it hurt a bit financially and quote calls remained slow.

Then, I started putting up my old websites with a new design and very quickly quote calls picked back up.

After that I put up new websites targeting specific local areas like New Haven, Indiana. I put up a site targeting New Haven on a Saturday. That Monday, we got two calls from people in New Haven wanting a quote for tree removal and another wanting firewood.

We have never gotten 3 requests from New Haven in the same day ever before. (All my stuff goes into a database so that I can track it.)

This isn’t a very scientific test, but I don’t think you have to be a genius to see that either these are some pretty specific results or some very big coincidences.

Now quote volume is back where we want it for now and we are sitting pretty again.

Over the past year and a half I’ve also helped out a couple of SEOs and built these websites for them.

They have used an earlier version for their clients and are very happy with the results.

They got a cosmetic dentist in West Hollywood, California to the top of the Google Local results for Los Angeles using their usual SEO mix plus my directory software.

They took a hand surgeon from nearly invisible to the top of the search engines.

They got a defense attorney in Kentucky more clients by expanding the visibility of his websites.

Dan Lewis of Lewis SEO Services, who does SEO for often times finicky “A List” clients all over the U.S., Sent me this email:



I was building Dan websites for $250 each and he gave me a lot of feedback on how I could make them even better, like adding the Twitter, Facebook, and Google + links to each listing page.

Dan is actually the guy that turned me on to WF and the reason I became a member. He told me I should offer my software to Warrior Forum members over a year ago and I have spent the last year creating the software to build these websites fast instead of building them from scratch by hand like I used to do.

Will This Work For A Brand New Website?

Absolutely! We tested it over the summer and On June 11th we registered a domain name and got a website up and running for it in a couple weeks. We also put up a Facebook page and got it listed on Google Local in Columbia, SC using one of my climber’s parent’s address down there.

On June 27th it was listed at 82 on Google Local right after we verified the listing and it got reviewed. About the same time we put up a couple of websites to push the main site to the top and by July 7th he had gone from 82nd to #9 for “Tree Service” and #10 for “Tree Removal”.

In Less Than A Month With A Brand New Site, It Went From Non-Existent To Bottom Of Page One.

Being At The Top Of The Search Engines Means
Almost Everything To Local Businesses


If you’re already at the top, don’t get complacent. What if you lost your rank tomorrow, what would happen to your business? How would that affect your family and employees? The decisions we make affect more than just our bottom line, they affect people.

What if your biggest competitor used my system and got outstanding results?

You see I’ve heard the horror stories. Guys like the owner of MailboxWorks.com in Chicago, Illinois who almost lost his business a few years back because he thought spending $60,000.00 a month in pay per click on Google would protect his business from sites like Mailboxes.com. He nearly had to lay off employees that had worked for him for 20 years because Mailboxes.com was getting all the free traffic from the search engines.

I’m Offering This Deal For A Very Limited Time Because Need Your Help…

We internet marketers know that what I’ve done for 2 Guys Tree Service is a big deal, but I want to offer it to different types of service business owners and for that I’m going to need testimonials from people who know, people like you.

Right now Warrior Forum members are the only people that can get them, and when I do market it directly to business owners, these sites will sell for between $500 and $5000 per site depending on the size.

I know they will because I used what I learned about the sales page from the Flipping Paradise set and sold an old site for attorneys on Flippa.com several months ago with no SEO ever done for it and no content at all for $785. You can see it for yourself at https://flippa.com/3029696-huge-atto...-test-drive-it

So Here’s What I’m Offering You…

I’m looking for 250 people to try my system. Preferably people who are NOT already the number one listing on the search engines or Google Local. The farther down the search engines you are, the better. If that’s you, read on…

As I said, right now GoDaddy is running an offer on hosting that is 50% off the normal price, so you can get a years’ worth of hosting pretty cheap. I’ll build you up to 3 websites for your city and your services. You might need three if you’re in a business like mine where people search for tree service, tree trimming, and tree removal.

I’ll build your websites and buy your domain name, plus a year of GoDaddy hosting for only $97.00 Each.

We all know that’s a steal since GoDaddy hosting for a year costs $41.88 right now on sale. If you’re like me and don’t particularly like GoDaddy you can move it. I built and tested it so that it could run on GoDaddy and Arvixe Servers, so it should run anywhere. You can put it to work for your own business without any cold sweats or sleepless nights lying awake hoping it will work for you.

In exchange for building you a search engine crushing website for about what just the hosting normally costs, what I want from you… is a sentence or two about your results. I don’t really care what you say, or how you say it. You can simply send me an email that says you tried my system, and you got results, if you like.

There is, of course a catch. I will not build you a website for any tree services in the Fort Wayne, Indiana area. And try as I may, I do NOT have a list of SEO companies, so SEO is out, but I do have a list of all of the web design companies in the U.S, so I will do website design services.

But if you’re marketing any other service business in the United States, I can probably build you one of my websites.

I Guarantee You’ll LOVE the results you get from the website(s) I build you. You can try them out for 90 days and if you're not happy with them, I’ll take it back make it make money, and then split the money with you 50/50.

Here’s What You Get:
  1. A newly registered domain name that targets your service business and location.
  2. One whole year of GoDaddy Economy Hosting for your brand new website.
  3. One website built on my custom built directory software and a single-site license to use my software on that website.
  4. The national list of businesses in your industry pre-populated into the website that makes your site big and relevant so the search engines love it.
  5. Tailored industry links on your website to other relevant websites in your niche so that the search engines know what your site is all about.
  6. The website has a back-end Admin section that you can use to add and schedule content.
  7. The front end and templates are almost completely customizable for anyone who knows how to code in HTML and VB.NET


  • These websites are built with the listings already in them for your service business, so the sites are hundreds of pages to hundreds of thousands of pages depending on the size of the list.
  • These websites have a complete back end management site to make managing them easy.
  • You can add pages, change menus, schedule content, manage users and members, have articles submitted by members, choose from over 50 different pre-made themes with 3 clicks of a mouse, or completely customize any of the templates.
  • You can use these websites for yourself, your clients, or you can take these websites and flip them on Flippa.com using what you learned in the Flipping Paradise set (Which by the way, is probably one of the reasons USAAttorneys.org sold for so much. Great course, great results).
  • Below is a list of websites you can see that were built with my custom software. Feel free to check them out.


Why should you do this right now?
  1. I’m a service business owner just like you who needs a constant supply of new customers to stay in business and grow my business.
  2. This is what I do for my own business. I know it works because I do it and I have several friends in the same business who are jealous of the results I get.
  3. Several of my friends and colleagues have offered me THOUSANDS of dollars to do what I do for me, for them because they have seen it work.
  4. This is a no-brainer really. You know people are looking for you. You know there are only a few places that you can be right there in front of them when they need you: the search engines, phone book, the better business bureau, Angie’s list and maybe a couple others. The search engines are the big one.
  5. When they see you where they are looking for you, you are more credible. The biggest ad in the phone book can obviously afford to pay $10,000 a year to advertise there. Being #1 on the search engines gives you the same kind of credibility, which means people don’t balk at the price you charge.
  6. The guys in the top spots now are probably spending a fortune to stay there. You can get there for less money making you more competitive in your pricing.
  7. Having more jobs than you need lets you “cherry pick” the most profitable ones. You don’t have to work for peanuts.
  8. Marketing your business is what keeps you working. It’s the most important money you spend on your business.
  9. You can make money from memberships.
  10. You can make money from ads through Adsense, Clickbank, Amazon, Ebay, etc.
  11. You can make money selling the leads to local businesses.
  12. You can let members write the content for you!
So Right Now all you have to do is:
  1. Check out the example websites listed below and see if you like what you see.
  2. Click on the "Buy Now" button and tell me in the description box what city(s) and what service business(es) you are marketing.

That’s it, I’ll take care of the rest and email you when the site done. Please give me a week to three weeks to get your site to you.

Thanks for your information. I like your WSO sales copy.
I looked at the site NY Web Designers.
I am not really sure how this will drive traffic to one specific biz, since there are a dozen businesses on the page. Can you please explain,
Thanks,

This is an interesting WSO offer. I enjoyed reading the sales page. However, I am little confused about the purpose of the sites and have a couple of questions.

Are the sites used to make money from....ads, leads, payment from businesses in the directory, etc? Or, are they used for linking to other sites I may own? I ask because, you talked about ranking your business site #1 with directory sites, but I don't see any of the actual example sites ranking on the first page.

Are the sites you build for me going to rank on the first page of google for the related subject niche?

Was the attorney site making any money before it was sold?

Paul,

Thanks for the kind words. When you get ranked for service work, the people searching want options, that's why they come to you. But it works very much like it does directly on the search engines. Most people click the number one listing, or call the phone number like I have it on the tree service sites. Much less people click the second or third, barely anyone scrolls down.

So being in that top spot for free does a few things for you. It gives you credibility, because they don't know it's your site. And it gives you most of the traffic.

We did some experimenting a long while back with directory sites versus the "micro-sites" that most people do, and found we got more response from people on directory sites that seemed unbiased versus a micro-site that's all about one company.

Maybe you'll lose some work to someone else on the list, but most people are basically lazy and as long as you answer the phone when they call you, they'll feel like they've accomplished something and stop looking for someone else.

I can't tell you how many times I've heard from customers that they were going to get other quotes, but we got back with them fast and they liked us so we got the job.

Mike

They can be. I did have a site I put up for tree service in Atlanta Georgia that I sold listings on.

I had an auto shop directory a couple years ago that I put a Advance Auto Parts store on (through Commission Junction) and made good commissions from selling auto parts. You could do the same with amazon, clickbank, Commission Junction and others.

I send tree leads to other tree businesses in my area. You could probably arrange some type of commission with most service businesses. I have a car dealership in the area that will give me $100 per person I send them that person buys a car.

Some business owners who have bought sites from me don't feel like managing another website even though they could make good money on it, so they just link to their website from the directory website and do what little it takes to keep them in the top 2 pages like I do with my tree sites.

The sites I put up for examples were either mine for trees that I don't do much with, or examples of other lists I have that I put up to get people thinking about what would work for them.

As far as ranking the websites on Google, that's easy and up to you. My tree sites are almost always on the first page and I do nothing for them. I've found that you have to have at least 3 pages of decent content to get ranked well. After that it depends on how much competition you have, and at some point, depending on how competitive things are, everything else you do is overkill.

Here's a well known, but little remembered secret, you probably haven't thought about since before Google Local changed local marketing. When someone is looking for service work, they generally want options. Which is the whole purpose of Google Local. But before Local there were directory sites and in A LOT of industries, in A LOT of markets, when you search for a service all you get are directory sites.

That's because Google knows that's what people want. Options, reviews, content that helps them make better decisions, that's what gets a directory site ranked. And many service businesses or SEO's for service businesses will write it for you, just for being featured. (Many SEO's still do a lot of directory site submissions.)

But directory sites get traffic for all the business names too, I get good traffic from other companies business names. That's why there's a listings dashboard in the back end that tells you the most visited pages. Those are the people you should market to first and knowing who people are looking for on your site makes it all a lot easier.

I never did anything with the attorney site at all. I put it up and used it to test my software. I got some ad revenue, but it probably wasn't much. It got listed on a few websites for being a great attorney directory site and over 200 people signed up. (I have no idea how they found it.) More than a few bought memberships even after I sold it because the guy that bought it didn't change the paypal email address right away.

Just some ideas for you. These sites are very powerful, very flexible, and very easy to make money with.

Hello, very interesting offer. If I understand you each site would have a business directory relevant to the type of industry it is based on but the business of its owner features top. The directory ...boosts the authority of the site... Can you do this for none US residents?

It depends on your area and what kind of list you want. PM me and I'll check to see if I can get the list before you buy a site or sites.

If I can find a professional organization that has a directory I can usually get the list from there. I got a hand surgeons list from a website. Also some types of clubs have lists available. I've had a few requests for that sort of thing. In general if it's in the phone book I can get it, if it's in the US I can get it, and if I can find another directory website, I can usually get the list even if it's protected from viewing the source of the web page.

For lists I can't get easily or have to write software to get, I charge for the list itself, usually somewhere between $100 and $500 dollars depending on how much work it is to get.

If you would like to know specifics on a particular list type, I am happy to look into it for you, just PM me. Thanks!

I am interested in your program, but I prefer to use my own hosting, and I already have a domain name. Will the cost be less, if I already have my own domain name, and hosting?

If you are using your own domain and hosting I would have to do some testing and make sure that everything works with that setup. Every hosting company is different in the way IIS is set up, how mail works, and I have to have external database access. It may be that everything works out of the box, but you would still want me to check and make sure everything works, right?

I originally hosted these sites on my own servers, and everything worked great, but both GoDaddy and Arvixe have different settings for how IIS is set up, the web.config files are different, and email is relayed in GoDaddy's case, so I had to make some changes to make it work on their servers several of which took days to figure out and fix. (If you've ever called GoDaddy tech support (which is an oxymoron) you can understand why.)

It can be tedious and time-consuming. I'm not against using your hosting at all, but there's no discount. Just make sure it's ASP.Net 4.0 and Microsoft SQL Database with at least 50 MB of file space on the web server.

No matter what hosting you have, using your own domain name isn't a problem at all. Still no discount, because GoDaddy gives you a free domain name when you buy hosting.
