I once quoted a company over $12,000 for a Lead generation Project. They laughed at my quote (that was not the sad part).??

First, let me tell you how it all started.

?2017

This client:

→17yrs+ in the Electrical business.

→It was a big business

→but Sales was low.

*(I MEAN VERY LOW).

?


The Client insisted to:

→Fire the existing marketing team.

→Hire new people.

→Give them a fresh target.

*This made me SAD.??

?


Why?

Bcos, he had fired a previous team (months ago).

(And…a while back too).

?

I knew this was not GOING TO WORK

(but he insisted).

?

I had to make 3 important changes:

?

1/ I changed the marketing team.

→He approved of each new member.

→ I outlined a new strategy for the marketing team.

** But... this was not my proposed solution.

?

?

2/ I proposed an alternative strategy (WHY?)

→I wanted to make lead generation faster.

→ I wanted to reduce the cost of lead generation.

**I wanted him to have 2 options to choose from.

?


What I did:

→I reached out to an Electricians Association of over 6000 people.

?→ Made them an irresistible offer.


*Why Electricians?

*******(I will explain later).

?

3/ 4months to monitor and pick which strategy was better.

-- Marketing Team (MT) vs Electricians Affiliate (EA)

?

This was the breakdown of income generated

??

→ Month 1: MT was < $2500 | EA was $0

→Month 2: MT was $1300+ | EA was $8500

→Month 3: MT was 0 | EA was $45000+

→Month 4: MT was <$200 | EA was over $139,000+

→Month 5: MT continued struggling | EA kept increasing

So…Why did this lead generation strategy work?

Because I understood the target audience’s PROBLEM PATH.

?

??Every electrical project>>>has an electrician.

?

??When anyone has an electrical issue>>>they look for an electrician.

?

-- Electricians know where most electrical projects are.

--They are the 1st line of interaction with the customer.

-- By building a network of Electrician Affiliates, we reduced the cost of marketing.

**We only paid the electricians for results.

?

?

Do you think the project was worth more than the price quoted?

Who do you think laughed last? ??
