With over 140,000,000 websites
on the internet
and 110,000,000 blogs,
how do you make yours stand out?
In the early days of the internet you could put up a website
and expect prospects to find you. But in recent years, competition
for your prospects attention has become fierce.
With the explosion in traffic on the internet, there has
also been a dramatic increase in ways to market your business
online. You’ve got newsletters, blogs, social networking,
paid advertising and search engine optimization. Deciding
what eMarketing components to use and how to use them effectively
can be a daunting and expensive "learning experience".
Professional Service Firms have unique eMarketing challenges
such as...
- You Have a Longer Sales Cycle - Unlike product based websites, service
businesses often have a longer sales cycle requiring more planning
and effort to keep prospects engaged.
- You Have to Spend More Time Educating Prospects and Clients – Service businesses typically need
to educate their clients and prospects about the issues they address,
the solutions they provide and how their client’s business will be
different after the experience. As if that weren’t challenging enough,
they need to educate in a way that’s interesting and compelling to
their prospects.
- Your Service Is Seen as a Want Instead of a Need – Many services are
seen as “wants” instead of “needs” by the people in a position to
make buying decisions. In order to be seen as a “need” your company
has to describe results and benefits in compelling and memorable
language.
- You Have to Demonstrate Your Expertise – Your clients want to work
with an expert. Does the copy on your website, newsletter and blog
demonstrate your expertise? If not, you will have a hard time
earning the income you’d like to instead of just getting by.
