Core Idea: Target the Right Problems and the Right Decision-Makers

The presenter argues there are two main lead sources for web design clients:

  1. Businesses with website problems
    • Examples: conversion issues, broken UX, slow loading, missing calls-to-action, no booking path, outdated content.
  2. Businesses with no website at all
    • Implied angle: the “problem” is obvious, though these leads may typically have lower budgets than established businesses with existing sites.

Key execution tactic

Use a free tool to pre-diagnose website issues, then call businesses where you can plausibly reach the owner/decision-maker.

Lead-Gen Playbook / Workflow

1) Find local businesses using Google Maps

  • Search with terms like: “roofing contractor near me”
  • Open each business’s Google Business Profile

2) Pre-qualify the website before calling

Use the site feature (demo mentioned) “find website weak spots” to identify issues like:

  • Missing or weak call-to-action
  • Presence/verification of a textable phone number
  • Mobile vs landline phone routing (phone type matters)
  • Website failing to load
  • Near-empty or outdated pages (example given: not updated in 3 years)

3) Call the business with decision-maker reach in mind

A differentiator is choosing phone numbers more likely to connect you to the owner.

  • Examples cited of internet phone (VOIP):
    • Google Voice
    • RingCentral
  • Reasoning: owners use VOIP to route calls and reduce direct interruptions, making it more likely you’ll be forwarded to a decision-maker than with a landline.

4) Use an outcome-based pitch (not a “free audit”)

A suggested call flow:

  • Confirm identity: “Is this [business/owner]?”
  • Reference the observed issue (e.g., the site didn’t load when clicking “website”)
  • Position your offer in outcomes:
    • more visitors
    • more bookings
    • improved conversion and better decision-making
    • enable direct booking from the website (booking integration)

5) Scale outreach with CSV + messaging automation (optional)

The tool can help you:

  • Click through and validate multiple phone numbers
  • Download a CSV including:
    • phone type
    • detected website problem(s)
  • Run an automated workflow that sends different personalized messages by problem type

The presenter emphasizes that generic cold messages like “free website audit” typically don’t work. A stronger angle is:

“Here’s what’s wrong + what I’ll fix + results you can expect.”

Frameworks / Playbooks Referenced

  • Two-segment targeting
    • “Problematic website” vs “No website”
  • Diagnose → route to decision-maker → call
    • diagnose site issues, then use phone-type signals to improve decision-maker reach
  • Personalized outbound by pain-point type
    • message templates change based on the specific website weakness detected
  • Outcome-based selling
    • sell expected results (bookings/conversions), not just services/audits

Metrics / KPIs / Targets Mentioned

  • Proof of capability: the presenter claims generating $35,000 monthly recurring revenue (MRR) helping web design and SEO agencies with cold outreach.
  • CSV workflow scaling: can validate 12 phones at once, with “thousands of results simultaneously” (scaled path described as paid).
  • No specific CAC/LTV/churn numbers or explicit growth targets were provided.

Concrete Examples / Scripts Included

Example website issue: “site failed to load”

  • Steps:
    1. Click “visit website”
    2. Confirm loading failure
    3. Call and reference the issue
    4. Ask if they’re already aware

Decision-maker detection example

  • Differentiate landline vs internet phone (VOIP) to improve the odds of reaching the owner.

Sales framing example

  • If fixed, their website can drive more bookings (including the option to book appointments directly).

Actionable Recommendations (Stated)

  • Pick up the phone and call businesses with verifiable website issues.
  • Call only decision-makers, using phone-type signals.
  • Speak in outcomes (bookings, conversions), not just “free audits.”
  • Personalize outreach based on the exact weakness detected.
  • Use CSV/messaging automation if you want to scale personalization.
