Make It Easy for Prospects to Contact You

I was recently reading in Website Magazine and found the article "10 Steps to Generate More Leads" very interesting and helpful. I was especially struck by the topic of - making it easy for prospects to contact you.

How often do you visit a web site and realize it's not that easy to find the company's contact information? A good number of business owners seem to be hiding this information on obscure pages, making it very difficult for someone to reach them. I'm not sure if they realize this, but they are sending the message, "I don't really want to talk with you or hear you complain about my product or service."

After reading the article I mentioned, I decided our web site didn't make it easy for people to reach us. Don't get me wrong. We have a Contact Us page, and it's visible in our navigation. People can easily click on that link and send us an email or submit a form for more information.

But what would happen if we put a form at the bottom of every page that talks about our services so our visitors don't have to go searching for it if they want to know more? Would they be more apt to request additional information or a quote?

Even better... what would happen if we made the action steps obvious to our site visitors? Instead of using a button that says "submit," what might happen if the button said something like, "Achieve Better Results" or another unique call to action? Maybe our visitors would be so intrigued, they would take action.

The point of all this is to get you thinking about how functional and friendly your web site is for your visitors. We're in the process of redeveloping our site and will be including a lot of features we believe will be of great value to our visitors, like a free job board. As we are going through the redevelopment process, we'll be looking to make sure our site truly says "Welcome. Come in and stay a while."
