Every service business needs a fresh flow of business. So, you advertise with money that you could use elsewhere only to find out that advertising is not an immediate reward process. Advertising is a long-term effort that requires months of paid advertising before it pays off ... we hope!
The cheap method is hitting the streets with fliers in hand hoping that you will find people who are just waiting to find a service like yours. They just didn't know you were there. Well, how did that work? Canvassing for business is the low-cost method of getting business, but it is filled with disappointment unless you are Mr. Personality.
There are other means to get new business. How about a better website, hiring an SEO firm to boost your position, social media where you must constantly submit articles or posts, or building links to your website. We've all tried this, and it just doesn't work like we hoped.
Then, you found lead generation websites like Thumbtack, HomeAdvisor, or RedBeacon. The good news is that these powerful websites do collect leads. They have managed to attain a high search engine position, and they are designed to capture leads which they then promise to sell to you. Problem solved, right?
Sadly, not so. It may cost these firms $5-10 to collect a lead (that may be little more than someone price shopping or has a question about how to do it themselves), which they sell to you for $10-$20 per lead. There is no assurance of the quality of the lead, but you bought it anyway.
What you don't know is that the company didn't make a small profit by selling it to you. They sold the same lead to 5, 10, 15, or 20 other people in your area. What proof? Make a service request for what you do on one of these sites, and watch your phone light up with dozens of calls. Enough said...
So, if these companies sold those leads ten times, they made about $100 to $200 per lead, and many are they raking in the dough. Sadly, if you didn't get the business for the "Paid Lead" you are out an average of $10. But, the promise is there, so you go back again and again. If you get one out of 10 leads, you are paying $100 per real business lead.
It is time to end the madness.
Call Remy started by a network of service providers who decided to take control of their own destiny. All listed services are bona fide service providers who are dedicated to superior service. The difference with Call Remy is that it charges just $5 a lead and that lead is not resold to dozens of others.
When a service provider signs up on Call Remy, the system will create dozens of Smart Pages that are highly targeted for the service type and the cities you specify. These pages are heavily promoted by the best SEO efforts to eventually push up to Google page one. So, instead of one non-productive, low-ranking website; you get the benefit of dozens of highly-productive, high-ranking smart pages.
When leads come in, Call Remy will send you and email that there is an anxious customer who needs to hear from you. The fee is a mere $5; and better yet, if you buy the lead ... it is yours! We do not sell the same lead to a dozen others. Once you buy it, it is off the market.
So, if you have one of the services listed on the Call Remy home page, why not sign up as a Call Remy Service provider. You have nothing to lose by signing up, and you do have a lot to gain as a Call Remy service.
