Hey guys,
Been in the Internet Marketing game casually for a couple of years, and now work on my own stuff full time for the last 6 months. I still consider myself a newbie, but I know a lot more than I did 6 months ago.
I currently have a site that is ranking well and starting to bring in a nice amount of traffic and leads.
The site is mainly local SEO focussed on the locksmith niche. I currently have a bunch of locksmiths on board who have leads redirected to their phone. They pay $10 for each of these leads. These locksmiths are excellent at residential and commercial enquiries, however, they don't do auto enquiries (new car key cutting and programming)
The problem is 70% of my enquiry are for auto. From all the calls I've made, and research I've done I've only been able to find 4 locksmiths that specialise in auto in the city. I have 3 of those auto locksmiths on board. The 4th was not interested.
Of the 3 I have, only 1 has agreed to the $10 per lead, however, he only does a certain part of the city which at the moment I am not getting a lot of enquiries for. The other 2 guys didn't want to pay per lead, I have them paying per converting lead instead.
The issue is the 2 locksmiths are not converting may of the leads so I'm not making much money.
I've got the leads, I'm just not making any money off them. I'll be researching deeper to see if I can find other auto locksmiths in the city, but I'm not holding my breath.
Can you guys think of any other way to monetize these auto leads???
I thought I would throw this out to you guys for your insights. I'm stuck with this at the moment, and I am open to suggestions/brainstorming
The long term focus will be to drive traffic/build SEO for profitable areas/keywords however this will take a couple of months. I would love to make money on what Ii already have.
Cheers
Nathan
