      Look up Lead Finder Local on this platform. His software allows you to do an in depth analysis of anyone's website and shows areas that need improvement. I believe this will help you.

    ok so I am trying to translate this but honestly I have no idea what cold call to hot prospects means.

    With regard to the free report you don't want just anything 'so they spend time' you want something that will help progress the sale.

    Now I have no idea what line of work you are in so can't give specific advice but i would recommend you understand the why behind the what before you start giving out reports that will just shut doors, ears and minds to your pitch.

    As a small suggestion spend some time reading through the offline section (it's probably the best part of this site)

    I think he's looking for free resources that he can run a client's site through that will show where it needs improvement. For example, there are sites out there where you can submit your website (or a client's) and it will spit out reports as to things that could be improved for SEO.

    Like all businesses, you need

    a LEAD GENERATION system

    a QUALIFICATION system

    and a CLOSING system.

    You are not going to solve all three of these issues in one go and nor are you going to do them all in one step. Newbies are always trying to combine traffic and conversion into a single step and it's the biggest mistake you could make beyond not trying anything at all.

    Your phone prospecting strategy could be your leadgen system. That's fine.

    Then your qualification system has to separate buyers from non-buyers. This is where your free content comes in. It should filter for two questions by answering both:

    What valuable thing can you do for them?

    What are the benefits of working with you? And you, specifically? Why should they hire you instead of anyone else?

    The first question filters for Need. Do they need your services? If they don't think what you do is valuable for them, they do not, do they. So that would be a waste of time to chase that prospect for an order. Come back to them in 6 months because things may have changed for them.

    If they recognize the need for your services, then it's up to the next question. Why should they have you do the thing instead of their cousin? Or another professional?

    After answering these questions your freebie needs a Call To Action. The CTA tells them to book a call with you and gives them a link to your calendar. Now you are only talking to people who acknowledge a need for what you offer, and understand why hiring you specifically to do the thing is of value to them. Do you think that would take you a long way towards making the sale?

    Get these systems in place. Run and test each in order. First, your leadgen system will fail to work. You will have to get that running and maybe you already have it operating well enough. But then your qualification system will suck. This means writing, testing, and editing the report or video series or whatever you use to qualify your prospects. After some attempts it will begin to work, meaning it will start booking you calls with qualified prospects. And then it will be time for your closing system to leap into action...and you will fail to make sales. Don't worry about it. Keep working on your conversion/closing system at that point and you will begin to make sales.

    But if you jump into this expecting all three systems to be in place and you to instantly make sales...well you're in for a tough time if that's so.

    You can be offline and still have a good website representing your offline business with only contact info like e-mail, phone number and address. For that it is possible to even use some basic templates which you are able to find all around the internet.

    "Offline lead generation is by no means obsolete. The digital world may be powerful, but at the end of the day, exist in a physical world where there is power in face-to-face interaction and things we can physically hold in our hands. Here are seven effective methods of generating leads online.

    1. Direct Mail

    2. Print Ads

    3. Hosting Events

    4. Sponsoring Events

    5. Inbound Phone Calls

    6. Outbound Sales Reach Outs

    7. Networking With People at Events

      I agree with you! All these methods work really nicely these days. You should use all of them surely. As for me, I also use some promotional items for my business like lapel pins and printed products. But you should use them later... Anyway, these steps are really helpful

        Certainly you must have one method that you prefer over all the rest.....??
        Don't make me guess.

      Try Spyfu, wordstream. Show them where their site is now and what you can do to get their site to a top position, and how much it will increase revenue to their company. Also show how their strategy either doesn't exist or doesn't work and that's why they are reaping any fruit.

    Be without your own website in 2018 is like being without tool for work in any industry. Online work is something that should be standard in those days even if you maybe work mostly offline but for sure you would like to improve your business with some good web solution as well.

    Give them some real value of what you offer for your niche in an article or cheatsheet, it can be small/few but with high value. Don't worry about giving the real value, at the end this what will make them trust in you.
