Small web development company based in Seattle, USA and Amsterdam, Netherlands is looking for sales leads.
The fact is, I am terrible at sales and just don't have the time to devote to it. I can give an elevator pitch and can talk solutions when it gets down to it, but I couldn't cold-call my way out of a paper bag. My company is a one-man-band with a set of regular contractors, so I am looking for a person or firm to generate the leads I can't generate myself.
What I'm looking for:
1) Total of 10 qualified leads, meaning you have spoken to them, they are interested in updated their site (or creating a new one), they have been made aware of my company's offerings and are expecting a call from me to discuss further. Note that this would be a no-obligation call and they can expect an honest assessment of their needs in this discussion. If we are not the right firm for their needs I will gladly tell them that and give them advice on how to move forward.
2) Information for each lead should include: Name, Company, Position in Company, Phone Number, Email Address, Website, basic motivation for wanting a new website or redesign.
3) Leads should come from US-based companies. Very promising Western European leads will also be considered, but I must approve them before they can be counted toward the total 10.
4) Leads can come from direct cold calling, personal contacts, lists you've compiled - whatever, I don't care. As long as they are interested and you have presented a professional image to represent my company, it doesn't matter to me how you get them.
We specialize in two key areas:
1) Quick turn-around, small-business sites that use our high quality design templates. These are generally 5 to 8 page brochure-style sites that take about 2-3 weeks to complete, starting at $799. Our templates are much higher quality than most other firms and can be fully customized, and usually represent a significant upgrade to most small business sites. We also offer hosting services and logo design, so this can be a cheap, one-stop solution for businesses looking to get their web presence up quickly.
These projects are done mostly in-house and clients are invariably happy with the results. A fact sheet is attached here, and you can view the templates at [login to view URL] A short video explaining template customization can be found at [login to view URL]
2) Custom sites, ranging between $1500 to $5000. We tend to act more as project managers or general contractors for these projects, though some technical tasks are performed in house. We have an extensive network of professional web designers and developers from all over the world that we work with to keep the client's costs to a minimum. All resource management is handled behind the scenes so the client can work with a single PM while benefiting from multiple professionals in multiple locations. Essentially, this allows us to secure the best quality possible while staying in the client's budget. For example, we may use an Eastern European designer, convert the design to HTML ourselves, then hire an Indian developer for the custom functionality.
Clients looking for eCommerce solutions, Content Management Solutions (Joomla, Wordpress) and small businesses looking for a unique image or custom functionality fall into this category.
