Local business owners don’t have time to figure out internet marketing. They just want to make money.
Yellow Page ad providers who are losing revenue to online ads had to do something… they have the time, resources, and expertise (or can buy it) to give the business owners what they want… clicks without having to learn GeekSpeak. They’re called “click packages”.
Could you provide this service as a home based business? One owner below is paying $2.10 per click but doesn’t know what keywords the phone company bids on to generate leads. If they can buy targeted clicks for 50 cents, they’re getting $1.60 profit!
Here are some examples:
From Start Up Journal
Micha Anderson, president of Chastain Chem-Dry, a carpet-cleaning service in Atlanta, spends $1,625 a month for 750 clicks from BellSouth — meaning BellSouth will keep bidding on keywords until at least 750 people click on Chastain Chem-Dry’s ads and land on the business’s site each month.
Mr. Anderson says he doesn’t pay attention to what keywords have been purchased on his behalf. He just knows that the traffic to his Web site has nearly quadrupled since the program began. “I don’t know what exactly are the mechanics of how they drive the traffic for us,” he says, “but it’s effective.”
Mr. Anderson of Chastain Chem-Dry pays top dollar for his clicks — about $2.17 per click, based on a monthly fee of $1,625 for 750 clicks. The top bid recently for “carpet cleaner” on Yahoo was $1.20 per click, according to information available on Yahoo’s Web site.
