Cold Calling for Leads

I work with a lot of agencies who are good at providing a service and have many ways to generating new busiess. I've posted about generating meetings with local service companies for agencies and prices for a meeting range between $20-$500 per meeting. A meeting being a person that shows up to talk with you for 30 minutes and is motivated to have a problem fixed that your service might provide.

Now, most business owners dont want to cold call or cannot find anyone with a skill set that provides meetings constency. For people that do not want to cold call there are 2 main reasons.

The first is that you fear rejection. The only way to overcome this is to detach yourself from the outcome of the call. You have a process and follow that process and whatever happens in the call is a rejection of that process and not a rejection of you.

The second, you make 1000s of dials and you dont talk to much people. If you make 100 cold calls in 1 day and only talk to 3 people then your motivation for the next day will be low. If you make 100 cold calls and talk to 30 people then you feel your time is not wasted.My recommendations:

  1. Get a good cold call structure. I recommend using sandlers techniques of solve for pain and not selling features and benefits. This will make it feel like a conversation as opposed to a sales pitch and rejection is just them telling you they dont have that problem that you solve and not a rejection of you as a person.
  2. Combine AI auto dialer with lead scraping service. So you can make 100 cold calls in a day manually or 400 dials in a day with an AI auto dialer. Your effort doesnt increase but your output can increase 4x-10x. Also, connect rates usually are between 2%-10%. Have a company scrape the data for calls that have higher percentage of connecting. All the sudden you are having 1 conversation every 4 dials as opposed to 1 conversation every 30-40 dials.I know most believe cold calling is DEAD but with the right process and tools you can start setting up meeting for your agency relatively quickly.

Legit Reviews

The google review thing is insane I have gotten 2 legit verified reviews that i ask client to screenshot and observe goolge not post them, pretend like they never happened and when i sent them the image a policy message was sent . As I was browsing through the google forum a lot of ppl are getting hit with legit reviews being removed. While all this is going on i have observe a company go from 12 reviews to 65 reviews in a two month period with some stuff that dont make sense on some of them. Seems like a new business or profile is being limited while aged accounts can have a free for fall but who really knows. Still waiting for a resolution on a if any. submitted by /u/Ok-Bowl-6167 [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News https://ift.tt/zkbfgDH

Local seo vs. natiowide seo?

I've done SEO for local businesses but I recently got my first client that sells an item nation wide. ​ Any suggestions for doing nationwide SEO? ​ I am used to making geopages for local towns. I was going to do the same with some input from the client about what cities or towns he would like to show up in? submitted by /u/Letmeinterviewyou [link] [comments] from Search Engine Optimization: The Latest SEO News http://bit.ly/2JHy0k0

7 SEO Lessons I've Learned in 2025 (So Far) - From Building a Competitor Analysis Tool

Hey r/SEO , I've been spending a lot of time lately building a competitor keyword research tool (more on that below!), and it's really forced me to dig deep into how SEO works today . Here are some of the key lessons I've learned – hopefully, they're helpful to you too: Keyword Gaps Are Gold: It's not enough to just know what keywords your competitors rank for. You need to know what they rank for that you don't . This is where the real opportunities lie. Focusing on these "gap" keywords has been a game-changer for my own site. (This is actually why I built the tool – to make finding these gaps easier). Relevance > Volume (Sometimes): High search volume is great, but relevance is even more important. A keyword with 100 searches per month that's perfectly aligned with your niche and audience is often more valuable than a keyword with 10,000 searches that's only tangentially related. I've seen much better results targeting tho...
