I have to say first off congratulations on your success! Those are awesome numbers and I not meaning to be negative but I am really amazed that you had those call backs and sales as I have sent probably 300 video emails with a screenshot of sites and mobile as well as several hundred more with near the same email as you describe with only one response and they didn't even open the email after asking how much.

I use spy pig with gmail sent as my domain name so I do know which ones get opened and of course can see if they watch the video because youtube shows the views. Your results are simply amazing and I am wondering if you might share the actual email that you sent to get those?

If not, I understand but I have been trying to sell mobile for a while and seriously all in all must have sent over 1000 emails with not one sale.

Anyway, really congrats on your sales and for taking action. I wish you the best and a whole lot more sales

Robert, you're doing good and I am happy for you. But trying to sell mobile websites is like pulling teeth - it's a very hard sell.

Makes no sense, because local biz should be breaking down the doors on us trying to get this! With all the potential it is a no-brainer - but they have a hard time "seeing" it - even though it is mentioned on the news daily that mobile is going big, etc.

SMS, QR codes, lead gen, coupons, mobile search, etc. Mad opportunities! ...yet, it is still a hard sell. I work the local scene for SEO and Facebook marketing and even with current clients - mobile sites are a tough sell - it shouldn't be this hard, ya know.

Thank Robert for your advise. I will look for that product. I don't have trouble creating this mobile websites same as desktop websites. I am a web developer. I am just stuck with selling. I think I am afraid that a client will say NO.

I can create mobile websites quick, I have hundreds of templates sitting in my computer, do you think it's worth selling them 25$ or 30$ each mobile website?

What I have in mind is just to get reputation from this companies and upsell sms marketing later. Please advise.

Thank you. My subject line was "I can't view your company site on my phone!" I now am testing, "Are you aware your website doesn't work on a mobile phone?" And let me tell you,, I know it's catching peoples attention because a few have written back saying it does. But they think if their site shows up its good,, not mobilized though. I will post the whole email on my site in my signature. Also,, I am using Yesware,, a Gmail tracker found in the Chrome store for free.

It's still in it's infancy. Keep in touch about once a month with potential clients. When they finally "get it" you'll be who they contact. Be persistent!

Yes. Maybe $99 set up. That's super cheap still. And I spoke with my "big wig CEO" buddy and he said to try that route as well. Give it away for a really low cost and lock them in for a 2 year, monthly contract at $49-$99+ a month for SMS. I also offer a QR code for $29. Custom Facebook Fan Page or Twitter Page $197 (outsourced for $50)

My friend keeps me on my toes and keeps me thinking about "plans" or "packages" to offer. Be diversified. Cover all bases.

I will post my whole email in my sig website soon.

Lets see your copy.
Also, who are you contacting? I tried salons and have a potential "dog groomer" wanting a mobile site. And here I thought I was trying for human salons. See,, you jsut never know who might want a mobile site. Dog groomers and bailbonds,, go figure.

This is my copy. I know I suck at doing copywriting. I'm not a native english speaker nor good at english writing. All I can do is create stunning websites / mobile websites. Can you share me your copy? Possibly through private message so you will not have any problem with competition because they will use your copy.

I will really appreciate it Robert. If you can PM me your skype, we might end up of something we can make both big money.


Code:
Subject : Where are you located? (47 replies out of 350 emails sent, 1 sold for $197. Lawyer)

Subject: You are LOSING Business! (2 replies out of 220 emails sent. The reply was please remove me in your mailing list.)

I usually search on my smartphone for a Dentist to visit. Are you aware that your site isn't visible (at least not correctly) on mobile phones?

I saw that you didn’t have a mobile website yet and the majority of people I know use their phones to look for Dentist in the internet. I actually build mobile websites that are optimized to be viewed on phones and iPads so I went ahead and made your mobile site already! I hope you don’t mind but it turned out great.

If you’d like to check it out feel free to e-mail me back to see it.

Kind Regards,
Renan Corbes

Well done Robert.

I think the real lesson here . JUST DO IT. STOP PROCRASTINATING or thinking...

Whatever happens the outcome is, you will learn faster.

Well done again

I have a general email that works pretty well. People have responded, of course not all lead to a sale. But I do have a lead or 2. See the link in my sig to see the email. You can use it and chane it to suit you.

Damn staight! Just get out and do it. I think I'm gonna get on walk-ins soon. Funny how once you make a sale you feel like superman able to do it all. I have a lot less fear of doing a walk in now. And I will look like this when I walk in.... Cool and confident...... ooooh yeeeeaaaaahh

Thanks for the lowdown, X Man!

I've built many Wordpress sites for myself and clients, using my own hosting account. I know how a redirect script works, and would be able to put it on one of my own websites in my own hosting account.

BUT... working with a new client's existing web developer seems very tricky! I have to think the existing provider would like to take the sale away from us. And we're dependent on their cooperation? We need to give them the mobile website files to upload to his client's hosting account, and then put the redirect into their existing desktop website?

This is the biggest stumbling block in the sales/technical process for me. Can you elaborate?

Thanks!

Well, I guess this time maybe the designer didn't know mobile. I think, with most clients, it's gonna be who gets there first and offers the best deal (unfortunately). I think I just got there first and dazzled the owner so much that he just couldn't resist. I'm that good. Or lucky:confused:

Did you see the script and headline? It's on my website in my sig below. Check it out and watch my videos. See my "Monday" and a sales video I made a bit back. Don't wait,, go now!!!!

The videos I use are from WillR's pack. I use the Mobile site video and the SMS video.

Congrats!! Your post is encouraging

Quick questions? You partially answered it already regarding the current website and current web designer

You make a NEW mobile website for them, with just a mobile redirect? how do convince the business owner to not just contact their current web design guy or website source?

Do you see in the future this being problem, maybe the current web guy being contacted and then the business owner just deciding to do business with his current guy? Just seeking advice for potential conflicts in my future.

I guess it is what it is at that point, you just gave a free Upsell to some guy,company who isn't even on his game

I think this is a gamble for everyone doing this. They all must have a web designer. Maybe they just forget, or, get too excited and buy. People tend to buy impulsively.

It depends on the redirection script you're using.
Sometime the ftp details are enough.
Sometimes you might need their hosting cpanel login if they want an m.domain.com mobile syntax and sometime you might need their Wordpress wp-admin login for you to setup the redirect(if you have an redirection plugin for wp)
Hope that helps.

That's awesome that you are having success in the local mobile area. The thing I experienced is that owners are not too up to date on technology, so it takes some convincing. I was doing some RIA for some local businesses before I even attempted anything mobile with them.

Are you having any problems landing them without RIA. That's my only issue. I don't want to put in the time, then not have anything pan out. I might outsource the local business deals.

Do you outsource much or do it all yourself?

Thanks for your help man. Are there any cons against using Google's mobile site builder? It's completely free. On the other hand, what are the pros for paying for another platform? Thanks again.

Are you having any problems landing them without RIA. That's my only issue. I don't want to put in the time, then not have anything pan out. I might outsource the local business deals.

Do you outsource much or do it all yourself?
What is RIA? Sorry,, I'm not that brite. Owners need to be shown the way,, the wave of the future. I do make a mock up sometimes and send them that in my emails but not always. I mix it up. And, I am looking to outsource and have a new "partner" selling for me in Atlanta, GA. I'm setting her up and want to get others.

I haven't used any free platforms. I only have paid. But i like them because I usually buy packaged deals. I like it simple.

Anyone know where to get some? .... Oh,, and I am going to upsell,, I just don't wanna shove it all down clients throats all at once. A kind of drip feed of all other services


Just like Tony Robbins says... Take massive action! You can doooooo eet!


I'm experimenting with iContact and Yesware. Yesware is a google chrome email tracker that's free. Just download Chrome and find it in the store.
iContact: 500 contacts with 3000 emails. $14.99... I figure I can upgrade to more as business increases.

But there's still that one HUGE tip I have.......

Thanks,

Robert X
Hi Robert,

Congrats on your success - it's action like yours that gets civilisations built.

Thanks for the Yesware tip. I've have just gone and installed it. I've used Spypig, which is good but doesn't do link-tracking. And I've been using Bananatag which is great, and DOES track links.

But Yesware seems even better, since it gives you the ability to save email templates - defeating a limitation of Gmail itself with its useful but limited 'canned responses' feature.

Thanks for sharing, and see you at the top.

Yours in prosperity,
Skochy - The Musical Salesman

Very inspiring story indeed. However, you got lucky the first time by landing a $1000 client. The important thing is to keep getting clients on regular basis using this strategy.

By the way, from where does the localizer leads tool get its data from? Is it from Google business listings or what?

Salesmen are not born,, they are made over time. Like a serial killer.

Hey,, you should be a motivational speaker. As far as the localizer lead tool,, I think it gets it's info from Google. But, i can't remember where it said the info cmes from. But, I'm pretty sure from Google listings.

What an awesome thread, thanks for posting Robert.

Something else you might look at in your arsenal is Google's mobile checker. It will even spit out a cool report you could use if you were to meet face-to-face ... Test Your Site

I absolutely LOVE the hook of not being able to view their site on your phone. When they come back and say their site looks fine (and it's not a mobile optimized site) they may need to be educated on what people search for on their phones, and how full versions of their site load slow, and are difficult to navigate.

I think I'm going to try that subject line with my prospecting messages to Facebook business pages ... btw ... would love to have you in our Facebook group ;-)

And like I said above,, I like things all packaged together and this is,, it has all you need for mobile.


The second ph # I got from AT&T. It was only $9 to add a second line,, and as many more as needed at $9 bucks. (I had an account already)

Yes, I wrote my own emails. One thing I did do for about 30 of them was to take a pic of their site on an emulator "mobilizer" and sent them an image of their site on a mobile phone along with a mobilized site. (not theirs tho, just an example) Quentin gave me that tip for the simulator/emulator(?) Thanks Quentin. No templates buddy,, sorry. Just follow your heart:p

If you build it, they will come........... but it's work people! My biggest tip of all,, bigger than anything else,, IT'S THE BIGGEST TIP YOU WILL EVER GET,,,,, EVER!!!!!
Maybe in the next post,,,

Robert X
Don't spend time taking pics of their site, get SnagIt! for about $29. You can snag any image on your computer and edit it, save it, crop it, send it. Nothing is safe on the web if you have SnagIt!.

Hey RobertX
Firstly congrats for you success. Making a deal of 1200 bucks is good as there are people offering services at as low as $5. Since you are having all the WSO and a nice development team try to get more from your customers. I have been dealing with a few clients who are happy to have their mobile website build by our firm paying lowest of 8000 bucks and more according to the complexity of the websites.

I am Daniel Jones, working in a Mobile Application Development Company as a Mobile App Developer. I enjoys exploring apps on iOS, blackberry, android and other mobile platforms.
