100-200+ hot local biz leads per month. Seriously. What would you do?
coming in from small businesses all around the
country interested in online marketing services.
(SEO, websites, backlinking, social media, etc.)
How I pulled this off is another topic for another
day - I cannot go into the 'how' right now. Sorry.
However, I'd like to ask those who have their
own successful local marketing companies the
big question - what would you do?
I currently do not have a 'public' local marketing
company - however I do take on a client from
time to time. I fully understand and know
everything that goes into marketing a local
business online. (And of course, like all of us,
always learning.)
A couple of options that I have come up with:
1. Start my own local marketing company, put
together a few packages, outsource everything.
Do what I can in the beginning dealing with
potential clients, quickly hire someone who
can sell the package(s) on the phone. Obviously
this would be a lot of work until I had the sales
team and outsourcing team in place.
2. Be the middleman - I find a top-notch SEO/
Marketing company that I can funnel all of
these leads to and earn a % of the upfront
and monthly fees. This would be pretty much
hands off for me - and of course extremely
attractive. But 'who' would be absolutely key.
3. Create a company that sells these hotter
than hot leads to local marketers. (These leads
are hotter than hot because the business owner
purchased a product that I created directly
related to marketing their business online -
and they purchased another related product to
market their business on the Internet.)
Thoughts? Other ideas?
Just here to see the shenanigans.
