Offline – DOUBLE DIP: WEB DESIGN + SEO CONTRACT = $10,000 in 24 hours

you can even tell them in layman terms like "You website has lots of critical errors. Whoever designed your site has done incomplete job. If you want I can explain you in person"

Perfect way to tackle this if you don't have an office.

Great post OP looking forward to the updates.

Glad you liked it. We came up with some real cool stuff...going to put into action this week and I will update the thread with some info and results.
 
I like the approach but you have to be careful you don't get busted in a lie. If they are at all friends with their competitors (and it happens more than you think in business), and they ask which competitors, they could check up on you. Sure, a lot of ifs but I"m certain there are ways to phrase it so you're not lying to them. Then your credibility would be ripped to shreds.

"A competitor" could be from a wide range of cross niches, etc...and if they ask WHO you simply say you can not disclose that due to confidentiality reasons. Simple as that.
 
Really liked this thread! This was exactly the motivation I needed!

thank u very much!!
 
UPDATE: We got very creative over the weekend - expect another thread this week with something new. We are hoping for good results!
 
Posting a new thread in this section titled "ORM Method: Customer Complaint - With A Twist" with a brief overview of what we just did this morning (as I can not update this original thread) - so I will keep both updated.
 
You can adjust this to companies that are not in your city, I do it all the time. I do video skype and they understand that my virtual company has some advantages I can pass on. Its all in how you sell it so don't put limits on yourself just turn what you think is a disadvantage to an advantage for your prospect.
 
Too bad I can't give rep twice, I use a similar approach to local biz. I tell them that we are currently making web audits for i.e. dentist in your city and there a few things we think could help improve your website traffic and conversion...

Yup, there are a million way to get creative :)
 
I felt the need to bump this because I got a client this way and too many people are not taking action with these methods.
 
Thanks NetMoney1 for the $1250/month contract I signed today :D I owe you a beer.

To anyone not wanting to do this method because it says to bring them to your office, well, I don't have an office. All I did was flip it around and say that I can come into their office.

I drove for an hour to get to this person for a meeting, told him what his current SEO company was doing wrong and what his competitors are doing right. He fired his SEO company and now I'm taking over.

No excuses not to do this method.

Great success story. Might have to try this! Only thing is I can't do seo. Can I outsource?
 
Many clients used to ask if we are working with their competitors site. To whom we will provide preference in bringing their site for the same keyword.

You're not working with a competitor though. The competitor couldn't afford your services and that's why they're being contacted.
