My Offline Sales Pitch, and how it can work for you.

Hey folks, I'm pretty new to the offline game, but I'm already signing clients left and right, and for BIG money. Here's what I do, maybe you can take my methods and use them for your own pitch.

I hate cold calling, and I hate email, so I don't bother with either of those. Instead, I find leads with the google places tool.

I pick a business that is ranking poorly, page 7 or 8 for their key terms, and they have no website. Then I actually go to that business and do my pitch.

When going to the business, I bring two things: A mind map detailing exactly what I can do, and my tablet computer. I show up in a sportcoat and jeans.

I say "Hi, I'm Aaron, and I wanted to take a few minutes to talk to you about your web marketing strategy"

"I noticed you didn't have a website, and your local business is ranking quite poorly on google. Were you aware of this?"

"Studies show that up to 95% of people won't look past the first 5 results in google, and up to 98% won't click past the first page. You're on page 7. The search term "your city your business" gets searched for (google broad search number of searches) a month. That's a huge chunk of potential customers you're missing out on"

"Here's what I can do for you"
Then I bring out the mind map, and go through all the things I do to optimize a website, and a google places listing.

Then I say "I even built a website for you already, and I can have it live TOMORROW"

This is where I bust out my ipad, and head over to the wordpress template i've created that's related to their business.

Once they see this, I get a deposit on the spot. I ask them for some details for the website, make an appointment to shoot a short video for the site, and come back later in the week and collect the rest of my fee. I charge monthly for hosting/SEO/and for not competing with another person in the same field within the city limits.


Hope this helps you folks! I know it has helped me!
