SEO and the Beauty of Passive Leads

Passive leads can be a blessing for most businesses. By "passive leads," I'm referring to inquiries you receive from prospective customers without actively seeking them. For example, if somebody finds your website while conducting an Internet search for some topic related to your business, and they contact you ... that's a passive lead.

Okay. So technically there's no such thing as a 100% passive lead. You still have to actively develop a website, and you have to actively grow your website's presence and visibility. But once these things are established, you can enjoy a constant supply of new leads, without actively seeking them out.

To me, this relieves a big part of the marketing burden. When people are able to find you online when researching the type of business you provide, and if your website does a good job of converting visitors into leads, then you don't have to work as hard on direct marketing, cold calling, etc. Wouldn't that be nice?

These days, Internet usage has reached such a level that any business can benefit from search engine optimization (SEO). The services I provide can increase your online visibility ... which can make your website a lot easier for people to "stumble across" ... which can give you a steady stream of passive leads.
