Course Description
Increasing local leads for a local business doesn't have to be hard. When we get past what everyone else is doing and ignore all the shiny distractions standing in our way, we're empowered to select a strategy or strategies that will actually work for the unique local business we want to increase leads for.
It isn't about being everywhere or applying as many strategies as possible just to see what works. Rather we can explore the options and then make informed and strategic decisions to increase a local business' leads.
Do you want to increase the number of monthly leads for your (or your client's) local business?
Do you want to see how to increase leads quickly without a lot of extra effort?
If generating more leads and increasing revenue is a priority, this is the course for you.
These are the strategies I use to review the online health of a local business and the questions I ask to understand where the business is currently and what they want to achieve so we can explore the options for local business lead generation and select the top 1-3 strategies that will best impact the unique business I'm working with.
What is a local business?
A local business is any business that serves a specific geographic area (San Diego, CA | Sydney, Australia | New York, NY | Charlotte, NC) whether the business goes to the customer or the customer goes to the business.
Who is this for?
The steps we cover here can easily be implementing by:
A local business owner
The marketing rep (or team) of a local business
A digital marketer who serves local businesses
You'll also find a lot of supplemental resources available to help you as you develop the lead generation system for the local business at hand.
Plus, I share examples of actual lead generation plans created for specific businesses you can download, tweak and use as well.

Awesome.. I love her teaching style.

Great course and great teacher. I'm about to do my first consultation in real life and she delivered exactly what she promised: practical strategies for small businesses. She gave several examples and even went over a few real life examples to show how she approaches the consultation. I'm going to look for other courses from her because I really enjoyed this one and found it useful.

Just starting the course, however, I have a very good feeling about Christine's experience and what I will take away from this course. The course is very thorough, I'm very pleased with this purchase.
