It’s probably the least smartass thing I’ve said all week.
On one side, yes I was lightening the importance of long tailed keywords nobody would search for…
But I was making fun of myself mostly, because the aren’t a lot of members from Detroit with J as their first name.
meaning, I would still come in 6th place… in a two man race.
It helps if you start out talking TO them like 3rd grade kids, no doubt.
Personally, I think your keyword is valuable.
But I think you are off on the “I do 1 job, you do 10 blah blah…”
Been on both sides, and although I’m newer to residentially focused, I’m still in deep enough to know.
I have my own reasons why I don’t want anything to do with that life anymore,
and I’m happier now than I’ve ever been.
So, whatever, more power to ya.
you don’t have one single boss, in charge of your collective week
if I don’t like the way I’m being treated by one of my MANY bosses, I can walk.
I don’t have a week tied up in labor cost. (That I have to wait 30,60,90,120 days for, to recoup)
I don’t have to deal with the silly game that is, “oh, Maintenance must not have turned your invoice in”
"Hmm… something is wrong, and we think you should fix it… if you LIKE having this account.
"Well the 'decision makers say we HAVE TO take bids every year
… don’t worry, I’m sure you’re competitive with every other schlub
who hasn’t figured out how to rank #1 for “high rise window cleaning.”
You really do not know the magnitude of the mistake you made in an open forum with your blatant disrespect.
Sometimes… It’s better to be cool than to be right.
The reason I was going to meet you in person was to give you a friendly message to stay away from WCR with your bullshit. Now. I really think we should discuss your strategy for making it right. I think we should discuss in person.
This forum and it’s members are my friends and most importantly. My family.
I take that seriously.
Being the type of guy I am. I feel like if you disrespect me or any of my family. It’s my civic duty to return the favor.
What he doesn’t realize is his mac id shows him better results than reality. The rest of the world sees what you see.
He is new in the SEO game. That is for sure.
I have clients that fly from all over the country to meet with me and my Brand Development team. I have been doing this for years. Let the guy be him… He won’t be posting here for long… I am sure he will find somewhere else to go.
I should have my sales training software together by then. I will then hire 10 sales reps to do door to door sales.
Using my marketing materials, sales collateral, and systems. I should be able to constantly hire and fire until I find at least 5 reps that are performers.
I will continue the turn and burn on reps until I find at least 8 performers.
I could give you the break down on this from a outside sales office perspective, but it would take forever.
Just know… Instead of DM cost. I am diverting into a human resource that accomplishes both sales and marketing.
You are kind of starting to lose me a bit, not near completely, but a little…
You are going to hire 10 guys come Feb one?
There is a week left in Jan, so I’d start looking.
How much/percentage of the $50k (I think?) is going toward Cold Calling?
… because I kind of think throwing a ton of money at ‘Door to Door’… is… kind of a… bad idea.
Truth be told, I’m ignorant, and I’m curious to see how it goes.
But it sounds like you are about to send 10 guys out, expecting them to return with 50 jobs/day.
