It used to be Yellow Pages. Now, it’s Google.
Your Prospects ARE Using The Internet To Find New Suppliers. Are You Using It To Market To Them?
Over 60% of significant local purchases for products and services, start with a Google search.
As you read this, you may feel concerned about the level of sales in your business?
You may be curious to know how people find local services these days?
Perhaps you are thinking what you do when you want to find new suppliers?
As you read more, you may be wondering if your marketing is keeping up with the times?
You begin to feel like you ought to find out more about how to use the Internet to meet your customers’ needs.
When people look in Google for a local service provider like yours, it’s because they have a real need and they want it sorted. And the exciting thing is, they are willing to spend money to do it.
The big question is….
Where will people spend the money?
The answer is with a company on Page 1 of Google, and in all probability, the one nearest the top. (No.1 in Google gets 41.2% of clicks).
Is that you or is it a competitor who will be getting their money?
There is no doubt in the mind of smart business owners and managers, that being at or near the top of Google is the only place to be for customers to find them.
If you’re not on Page 1 of Google, you are losing business.
I was talking to a client about how we had got their site onto Page 1 of Google. He was delighted because before we worked together, he was way down on Page 5 and no-one searches that far in Google. In fact, 94% of people only use Page 1.
He was saying how much better he felt about his business and how many new leads he was getting now that his site was
at the top of Google. He said, “I think back to just a few months ago before you did the site optimization work and how poorly it was working. I was way down on Page 5. Not only am I number 1 but I have 39 different Page 1 results. Now I see what a difference it makes having Search Engine Optimization done to a site.“
Now, maybe you are wondering how you can have the same feeling of comfort and confidence about the future of our business. Do you want to see your website at the top of Google?
It’s absolutely possible.
That client isn’t the only one. There are many, in different industries and services like yours including:
retail B2B lawyers car servicing
engineering training public speakers air conditioning
therapists jewelery garden services furniture
coaching real estate auto-panel beaters engineering
plastics manufacturing time management
