Growing your business and your sales starts with marketing. And today, marketing means internet marketing.
The process of getting your ideal target prospects to pay attention to you. To engage with you. To request a quote and then to hire you.
Your customers are online. They have a problem and are looking for someone who can solve that problem and deliver the results they are looking for.
The big question is, will they find you? And, if they do, will they engage with you?
Our TONS marketing system breaks this process down into five simple steps.
Your website is your modern business card and it really serves to answer questions:
We are a big believer in simple websites. Lots of white space. Pictures and video that tell a story and help to answer the questions, who are you and what do you do.
You have multiple options for websites. From free to expensive. As with all things, you get what you pay for. But when starting out, some of the free or low cost options work just fine. There is no need to spend thousands on a website until your business is ready to monetize that investment.
Website options:
Now that you have staked out a corner of the internet for your business, you need to attract your ideal target customers. You need website traffic. Traffic always costs money. There is no such thing as free traffic. It is the basis of all marketing.
Traffic options:
Once you get someone to visit your website. What action do you want them to take? What's your offer?
The most important part of any website design or marketing campaign is the offer. Websites are investments. Traffic always costs money. Your offer is what converts traffic to sales leads.
What do you offer your website visitors in exchange for them taking the action you want them to take? All offers have friction. The higher the friction (the more you ask) the lower the conversion rate.
Without conversions you have no prospects. The goal is to turn visitors into prospects
Offers - from good to bad:
You've got a lead. Now what?
Nurture is all about building trust and authority with your audience. They have taken the action you want them to take. Like going through your lead configurator or downloading your checklist. They are now in your database and you can communicate with them forever.
It takes at least seven touches or points of contact for someone to even know who you are. Don't assume that just because they scheduled an appointment or gave you their contact information that they are ready to buy.
Types of Nurture Campaigns:
To pull this all together, you need to systematize your marketing. It can't be done well using manual tools. No more spreadsheets as mailing lists.
To systemize your marketing you need just a few key tools.
Our Akela Marketing System has all these tools and more and is available for just $295 per month.
Having a well run marketing system is not expensive so there are no more excuses for any business. Large or small.

We will review your current marketing platforms and strategies. Understand your business goals and then develop a plan for you to get from where you are today to where you want to be in the future. And do so within the budget you set and at the speed you want.
We believe in educational based marketing. That is, making sure that your site visitors learn what you do and why they should buy from you.
So we do the same thing. We produce FREE educational content we feel will help you become a better digital marketer. Or at a minimum, a better buyer of internet marketing services.
