BEST MOMENTS
“If we don’t know exactly the person that we’re trying to sell to in terms of lead gen market to, if we don’t understand what keeps them up at night, what they’re worried about, what they hate, what they love, what they’re trying to do, it’s going to be really hard to convince that person to take steps, to take action, to book a call.”
“Some of the things that we do in lead gen are going to be a much longer commitment than a few weeks or a month. And we need to stay with it.”
“We need to make sure that we’re identifying the three to five [marketing channels] for us that work really well for our industry, for our market, for our time allotment, for our budget and do that, because you’re not going to do all 18, but let’s do the ones that actually fit for us.”
“I think every SEO is always going to have a place. I mean, it’s people are always looking for. We’ve been trained for the last 20 years that if you have a problem, just look it up, figure it out.”
“Sometimes we hear, ‘Oh, I heard about this company that did this amazing thing. I’m going to start doing that.’ Well, that company is 10X your size or less than 10X lower than you, you know? So if you do the wrong thing at the wrong time, it’s not going to work.”
