How to create outlook signature

hi i'm derek and you need more leads to grow   your business it's part of business and i'm  going to be sharing with you three different ways   that you can start generating more leads  more sales more money for your business [Music] so generating more leads for your business is  going to do a few things of course it's going to   give you more sales more money into your business  it's also going to help you be more selective   get more targeted have better clients when you  got more leads you can be more selective as far as   you know larger jobs or more specific clients that  you want to work with or specific services that   you want to provide so it's always good to have  lots of leads coming into your business and have a   steady flow so i'm gonna be sharing with you three  different ways i have this document that i made   i'll be sharing later on this video how you  can get this document for yourself so you can   keep it and go through it on your own time  and check off the different items this is an   action list so this isn't just you know  learning a couple of things and then   taking it away maybe you'll get a few leads  that way but what you need to do is actually   take action and do the items on this list so  first and foremost searching right people have   something they've done they need their bathroom  renovated they need their plumbing fixed they need   uh new kitchen countertops they need painting for  their house whatever kind of service you provide   people are searching for it in your area if they  can't find you they're not going to call you and   that lead is going to go to someone else so first  things first create a google my business account   now google is the top dog but there's other  search engines too and those other search engines   you might have an easier time getting to the  top because not as many businesses are going   to be on those search engines things like bing  or yahoo or some of these other smaller ones   so i create a google my business account and  set up your you know your company your profile   uh include your phone number your website all that  kind of information and then upload photos uh of   your business of your services of your trucks  of you of your guys of uh you know your shirts   whatever kind of uh photos that you got for your  business put it on on your profile on google this   will help you rank higher and it just takes time  for you to slowly get higher in the rankings uh   and also make sure to be asking for reviews uh  you try to get at least five to ten to start so   ask some of your best customers if they can do a  rating a review for you on your google business   account and get some good reviews going there like  i said add pictures and then you can repeat this   step for other relevant directories the reason  you want to be in multiple different places   first of all someone searches for your business  they can find you in a lot of different areas   i'm not an seo expert or tech expert i know a  bit of stuff but essentially the more places   that your business can be found the more links  to your website the higher you're going to rank   the easier it's going to be for people searching  for your specific service to get you not rocket   science but just good to know and then i've got  a list of different places here trusted pros   house home a whole bunch here that you can look up  you don't have to do all of them but ones that are   relevant that you think will be helpful get your  company listed there so that's the first thing get   found get your profiles up on the search engines  next one in order to get more leads rolling into   your business your contracting your construction  business uh whatever that you're doing social   media right everybody knows about it it's a  common occurrence everybody checks it you know   daily multiple times per day so this is free  marketing essentially you don't have to pay for   it unless you're running ads but what we're doing  here is just the free setup so you want to use a   headshot of yourself this helps people recognize  you uh it's easier for just to get familiar   right if it's just a picture of your truck or  a picture of your business card like there's no   feel there's no emotion behind it it's you know  it looks old right um and like not well thought   out have a headshot of yourself you don't need  to have your company name on your profile picture   that is in the description in your bio so head  shot of yourself something friendly a nice smile   looking clean uh like someone that someone would  want to do business with so pretty simple there   uh fill your bio section with a write-up put  your company in there so i you know xyz painting   abc contracting whatever your company name  put it in there it doesn't have to be a big   ad it just has to be something oh this  is what this person does right they're   checking out your profile maybe it's friends or  family or people you've connected with online   so they can see what you do for for work and you  know who you serve do a quick sentence like i help   homeowners refresh their their living space with  painting services or or whatever just something   that tells them what you do so how you serve  them who you serve so i help homeowners i help   contractors i help commercial real estate  investors you know whoever your target market   is your ideal client put that in your bio as well  and then add details to your profile so again your   company your position put a company website so  you can put a link directly from your social media   instagram facebook linkedin tick tock whatever  ones that you use have a link in there a few   personal professional details and your location  location is important you are a local business if   you're a contractor of your construction company  you're generally going to be focused in one city   one town one general area so have your location if  you live in a certain city put that city you know   put that town wherever that area is that you do  business have that as your location so people   can see uh you're not getting contacted by you  know people outside of your location and you also   become more familiar right okay finally moving  on to the third step if you do those first two   those ones are like set and forget more or less  like you can set up your profile set up your   search and people can find you people know what  you do it's just getting exposure it's marketing   and leads will start to come into your  business and it'll make prospecting   much easier when people can search you they see  you have a company they see every views they see   you have social media you know profiles set up  it's just it's more trust is established and   that's what we're looking to do with new leads  new relationships it's all about trust right   it's about exposure and then knowing that you're  someone that other people have done business with   you're proud of the company that you own that you  operate and someone that they could do business   with now finally referrals so your best marketers  the best marketers you could possibly have is   you know the john or sally that you did their  your bathroom renovation for where you painted   their their garage or whatever when they tell  their neighbor or their friends or their family   that's the best marketing you could possibly  get because it's coming from someone else who's   already used your service knows trust likes you  respects you uh these are the people that you want   to utilize this is your gold mine this is your  gold vault this is a big value of your business so   follow up with past clients call them to see how  they're doing they're still enjoying your product   or service and then later in the conversation you  didn't ask hey do you know anybody else you know   family or friends who might you know appreciate  this type of service or who might be considering   this if you did know someone who might that be  um you know not a hard sell but just throw it   out there at least it gets the gears turning  in their mind that like hey you know if next   week their co-workers like yeah i want to get  you know i was painted it's got like i got some   crack drywall or whatever oh you know what like so  and so you know that's how things work so i would   always follow up after you've provided a service  like ask at that point um but ask again like   you know three months or six months just  do a call up call follow-up and and say uh   you know how's it going we painted your garage  six months ago everything still looked good any   issues you're still happy with it wonderful how's  the family how's things great um just checking in   and then you know ask for referral you want to ask  during after and then like a six month or one year   follow-up um so you want to stay in touch you can  get an email list even better because then you can   ask you can keep the lead warm you can keep them  warm with follow-up emails not bombarding them but   you know just doing like uh you know once every  three months quarterly email something like that   and then send a small gift present or  at the very minimum a thank you card   uh to those who have referred you to someone  else even if it didn't end up in a sale so if you   let's say you know you painted sally's garage  and she referred you to her neighbor by all means   make sure that you send her a card give her a call  something thanking her you know really appreciate   you referring me if it makes sense you could  even send a gift card especially if it's a like a   business to business like if another business  referred you give them you know a little bit of   uh like you know depending on the project you know  one five ten percent of the revenue or the profit   uh generated you know send them a bit of money  send them a thank you gift card whatever makes   sense just as like something nice and to show  your appreciation for them going out of their way   to then refer you to someone else so if you follow  these you get yourself set up on all the search   engines and and different um lead gen sites set  up your social profiles and get your referral game   in the mix with asking for referrals you will be  generating leads solid leads fairly easily without   a lot of time on your part we haven't talked about  advertising marketing spending money these are   all very simple easy things that you can do as a  business owner to generate leads it doesn't take   a lot of time and in order to get this document uh  look in the description i'll have a link in there   it'll send you to a website that you can download  this so
