Keep these tips in mind as you gather contact information from your website.
1.Get website visitors to opt-in to your email system. Its simple actually. All you have to do is offer a free report or a newslettersomething simple. For example, you offer a free report on your website. This report is interesting to the visitor and they want more information. The visitor gives you their name and email address (and thus permission to contact) and you have a new name to add to your buyers list. Its just another way to get people to contact you so you can capture their information.
Many buyers will opt-in to your email system and website and give you their contact information because it is their preferred way to get information from you. Email should also be your preferred way of contacting, since its easy to hit multiple people at the same time.
2.Use website ads. Website ads are a little more advanced, but using a geographically targeted search engine will help you when generating leads. Youll want to tailor your key words to match certain phrases. For example, if you life in Provo, Utah you would use phrases in your website ads such as Provo House For Sale, Provo Homes for Sale, Provo Lease Option, etc.
3.Add a button. A button is a crucial part of gathering contact information. Adding a button to your website will give visitors an easy place to put their contact information. This button will add the new contact to your autoresponder list.
Online with a website is such an easy way to gather contact information. Contacting online is so much easier than picking up the phone and playing phone tag. Plus, once you finally get the person on the phone you have to write the contact information down, keep track of that paper, and then retype it again into whatever it is you use to store contact information. Use a website to easily gather all of your contact information.
