Whether you’ve just elected to make some cash as an SEO consultant and searching for your very first SEO client or want to increase the SEO organisation you’ve been operating for quite a protracted period of time, firstly you are in for a lot of thorough strategic planning as to where to find your prospects as well as how to turn the SEO leads into paying local SEO clients. For SEO agencies and consultants that rank high on Google for related key phrases, the easiest way to convert clients is of course through inbound leads.<\/p>\n

Find Highly Qualified SEO Prospects Who Are in Your Industry<\/strong><\/h2>\n

First, let\u2019s explain what a \u201chighly qualified\u201d prospect is. Your perfect SEO client should be someone who has had some amount of success in organic search but is not so far the leader<\/a> among their competitors.<\/p>\n

If they are by now at the top of search engine results pages (SERPs), then they probably don\u2019t need your assistance. Reaching out to them will be a futile effort. If they are not in the SERPs altogether for a number of different important keywords, they may not be willing to invest in an SEO strategy. You might spend numerous unbillable hours educating them about SEO before you even start to sell them on your agency.<\/p>\n

Make Sure That The Price Is Right<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Rate is key. Your pricing needs to be lie with client budget expectations as well as what\u2019s already on offer in your market. Ensure that your competitive research encompasses the options available to your ideal client in their local region, in their niche area of SEO (be it real estate, law firm SEO,<\/p>\n

Just as importantly, your services must be profitable in order to sustain your business. It sounds obvious, yet I often see people in forums and networking groups asking how to set their rates and what they should charge.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>
