I like this service cheers! I tried the 'find non-responsive websites' feature recently for the local area - it found alot!
I went through the list to see which ones (to me) seemed most likely of having cash 'now' to get it fixed (eg anything goverment, council, charity related got crossed off because they take too long to decide anything)
I also wanted sites that were least amount of 'work' (i.e complete site only had few pages) as client websites isn't really what I want to do ...but need to keep the lights on.
I picked around 10 sites just as a test and yes they were pretty bad
When I had spare time I made a better looking replica/'demo' of each ones homepage ( wouldn't spend more than hour for each) which just basically meant putting their existing content in a Wordpress theme that was responsive , smartened up the fonts, layout, colors etc. The theme is all drag n drop so it's pretty quick to mock something up.
Then I sent them each a short email telling them I was looking for their particular service eg restaurant 'I was looking for somewhere to eat and..', printers 'I needed a photocopy and you were recommended etc
Followed on by saying I went to look on their website but it didnt work on my phone - added something else around being a web guy that likes to fix problems so here's a link to a demo I made - rubbed it in a bit more about potential/existing customers also can't see their websites on their phones and sent it - just short really
found a thread on the forum somewhere with about 100 subject headings which I read/used also a bunch of other advice about copy - I used that to construct the email.
So far I sent out 7 got 5 responses and 3 of those have paid me money to fix it - for the size of these sites it won't take long.
cheers
@jamie3000 nice service, saves a bunch of legwork with lots of ways to use
