Local Partners Are you taking advantage of your Local Partners program? Local Partners is a program that allows you to create individual homepages for businesses in your area, or link to their personal web site. If the local business has a web site you can add an icon (small photo representing who/what they are) along with a short description of the business, and then link straight to their web site. If the business does not have a web site you can add an icon, short description, and the program will link to a separate page that describes the business and how they can help the consumer. The page will also list their address, phone number, and will include a contact page that will send them an email. If they do not have an email address, the contact form will go straight to you. You can then pass on the message to the business you are recommending. Why is Local Partners so important? A fabulous marketing tool, Local Partners encourages the businesses you recommend to tell their friends about their listing on YOUR website. The more exposure you can receive from different sources, the more chances for lead generation. In addition, if you have this program on your website and are NOT utilizing it, your prospective clients are viewing empty pages. Use this program to your advantage! Read below to find out how one of our customers is turning Local Partners into a POWERFUL lead generation tool. Here's how Dan Hill from Realty Executives made the MOST of his Advanced Access Website and his Local Partners Program: Excerpts from an e-mail received from Dan Hill: "A friend of mine called me and I sold her on the value of Advanced Access. She told me she will be adding Intellicards, Testimonials, and she is going to really go after Local Partners. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ Guess what? Click on the Icon REALS AWARDS TOO 100 SITES! I couldn't have made it to #1 without you and Advanced Access. Being #1 generates hits like I've never experienced before. I should get close to 10,000 this week; a new record! Additionally, Local Partners like what they see. I'm signing them up like crazy on a business type EXCLUSIVE OF CATEGORY BASIS. $240 per year and I refund their fee with one referral that closes. Great tip huh?" Best regards, Currently, Dan is listed in the #1 position in the REALS Top 100. HOW is he doing this? Dan is employing GREAT tactics such as Link Popularity, advertising his website everywhere, and promoting his new Local Partner program. Dan has created his program using Local Partners to pull in local businesses. He's advertising specific companies for each category for landscaping, transportation, maintenance, and more! Take a look at Dan's Local Partner page. Each Local Partner is paying Dan a fee of $240.00 for the year. If they provide Dan with a referral that closes, he refunds all their money, giving them a powerful incentive to provide Dan with prospective buyers and sellers! To get those Local Partners signed on, Dan has been showing how his website can benefit THEM. He pulls out a copy of his 'Web Statistics' to show his partners the traffic coming into his website. He lets them know how valuable their own web page can be. He offers to make them an 'exclusive' web page for their own category. This is a great way to use your website to generate business.
