Time to improve the filtering to get a better focus....
Who here is doing 1:500 (or 1:529 even...
) with traffic that includes traffic sourced from either a major tube, like PH, RT, YP, XH, or any of the others, and/or broker traffic that is doing over 20,000 uniques per day. Go ahead and still include in the average all the high conversion traffic like SEO, trades, review sites, etc..
And just for shits and giggles...
Does anyone care to share any marketing tips or tricks? It might be well documented and obvious to some or not typically considered and a revelation to others, but the act of sharing it proves that you are not only confident enough in your own success to "share the secret", or secure at least in the knowledge that it would be a hard act to follow, but also generous enough to give back to those that once were in your same shoes wondering "how do I become successful too?"
So to put my money where my text is... We also use offline techniques to drive in qualified leads. For example, although people say "DVD is dead" we are still able to drive in web customers with solidly branded ads on DVD. Even print ads in magazines can be productive, and I am told satellite radio as well although we haven't personally tested that yet. The point is you can still find web customers off the web too. Seems obvious but many people lose sight of this because their focus is primarily web oriented.
