Simple and Easy Suggestions to Target Your Leads


You have a website, a blog, Facebook Page, LinkedIn Page, Twitter and YouTube… Now, how do you get real LEADS from them?
The questions we all try to answer on a daily basis. Sure you can tweet a million times a day, “Come to my website!” or post to your groups, “Did you know we exist!?” But what are you really gaining?
I have found that providing simple answers to these queries is the best answer, your audience wants to learn more about you, and in return you need to learn more about them, right?
Here are my top three suggestions to help you turn clicks into leads.
User-reviews:  Providing a place on your website where your fans and follows can comment and leave feedback for their favorite thought leader (that’s you) is key!  If you are a brick and mortar location Yelp is a great app that you can use. And here is a tool where you can monitor the feedback easily, Send Social Media.
Quizzes: Offer a quiz that is prominent on your site that offers information to your fans as well as information to you. This is a perfect lead generation, and helps with the dreaded, “cold calls.” Here is an example of the Quiz that we offer FREE Social Media Score. You can get your own here SurveyMonkey.
Participation: Are your visitors able to participate when they come to your website? We are an interactive people, and we require stimulation! I suggest offering a “FREE Guide” or a “FREE White Paper” to your visitors when they sign up for your email newsletter. Use an email marketing campaign system like this one, AddressTwo, and watch the leads flow into your inbox!
