Tip of the Week- Don't Ask For the Lead Too Soon
Today's tip is a short but valuable one. We spend a lot of time and
effort getting visitors to our site. Isn't it a shame that we may be
pushing them away simply because we ask for the lead too early?
Have
you ever been on a website where they ask you to fill out a form or set
up an account before you even know if they have the information you're
looking for? I have, and it's frustrating. I don't want to go through
all of that rigmarole unless I know that this site has what I came for.
I'll be you don't want too, either.
I used to own a rental
listing service for people looking for houses, guest houses and
apartments to rent. We charged a fee to the renter for our service and
maintained both an offline and online presence.
Our customers wouldn't
get the property address until they subscribed to our service, but we
certainly let them search all of our listings based on their criteria
before asking any information of them, let alone a fee.
Do you think my
business would have suffered if I required personal information from
them in advance? Of course it would have, we had competitors.
Keep
in mind that your visitors don't have to be there (on your site). They
have lots of other choices. Don't make the mistake of asking for too
much, too soon. Let them look around first. I guarantee you'll end up
with better quality leads.
Google Buzz
Google just launched Google Buzz, today. It's an enhancement to your Gmail account which gives you the ability to post updates about what you're doing or thinking and share them with everyone or just a select group. Gmail users will also be able to track other people's updates and you can post videos, photos and links. Check out Google's demo video.
TheSolutionMovie.com
Check out TheSolutionMovie.com, our 90 second video and please share the movie with anyone you feel might benefit (web-owners, bloggers, authors, job seekers, speakers and others) who would like to achieve greater success.
Watch it again to affirm your own decision to improve your website and online marketing efforts.
In the near future we'll be posting articles on the IOP site which show how you can make (or have made) a movie like this for your site too.
