MenuHow can I reduce my bouce rate?
Felix here from Pokit. I'm looking for improvements on my site: https://www.pokitinnovations.com/ - particularly on dropping our bounce rate. Do you have any suggestions?
Answers
To reduce your bounce rate, you need to make sure that the messages you send are short and simple. If the message is too long or too complicated, it will not be received by your customers. Also when writing a blog post, try to keep it short and catchy because shorter posts tend to get more attention from readers than longer ones.
In addition, if you want to increase traffic on your website or blog, use social media as a marketing tool so that people can find out about what you have to offer. This is how I found my website and how I started my business!
Thanks for reading this answer! Hope it helps you out in some way!
Hi Felix, As you probably realize, two things will improve your BR:
1. Better quality of traffic to your site - Random guess that this is a mix of electricians, electronic technicians, home and appliance repair pros, and DIYer consumers? If you get more of the people who need your multimeter/oscilloscope/logger, they're less likely to bounce. But how do you multiply your traffic from them? For that, we'd deep dive on your marketing mix to see what channels you're using and adjust contextuality and targeting while implementing new campaigns for bigger reach to ensure that you are getting a much higher volume of true ICP (ideal customer profile) visitors to your website. We'd also develop a winning SEO and content marketing roadmap that you can execute on without hiring support team.
2. The second factor for Bounce Rate is the website conversion experience. Right now you, have a site that is on its way to credibility, but there are some simple fixes that need to be made ASAP to your featured reviews and to the priority you're giving to your products. It's a lot to take in, and some simple fixes will improve your flow. Obviously, removing "Pre-Order" (as soon as that's possible) will help a lot. Messaging-wise, the site needs some help. You're all about features, and missing the benefit. Marketers toss around the acronym FAB: Features, Advantages, Benefits. Right now your site is getting an "F", a lower-case "a", and B is nowhere to be seen.
I do real-time conversion reviews and roadmap strategy if you want a hand. Either way, I hope this helps!
Your website bounce rate simply indicates how sticky your website is, that is how long end users stay on a particular page on the website.
A well optimized website will keep visitors on your site for as long as they should. I suggest you set real expectations so as to attract the right visitors. The master key is to prioritize user experience. A user-friendly website will set yours apart from the others. Take your page loading time up a notch by producing high quality contents; I can assist you with that if you don't mind. Do you know how to optimize your website plus how to check its loading time?

For a once-off price point of $2,500, what would you expect from an agency-grade marketing package? Consulting, design, digital asset, tool, campaign?
Consider instead where a $2500 price point puts you. I use a selling technique called Monetizing The Problem, and in that process I get the prospect to calculate the size of their problem. Then I charge 5-10% of that figure. There's never any resistance, because they see where the number comes from, how it's based on reality--and a number THEY came up with (not me). So here you are at $2500. Let's be conservative and say that's 5% of the size of the problem. Meaning you are trying to help them make $50K in sales over the next year. What kind of a business has a revenue goal of $50K? A sole proprietor who's just trying to get by? Is that your target customer? Really think about this. A serious SME won't play at the $2500 price point, because it's too low. They know the vendor can't commit enough resources to do the job they really need done. For instance a business with only four high-value employees plus the owner needs to bill at least $60K A MONTH to survive!! Why would they let you touch their marketing collateral (that's their website) for a mere $2500?! Stay at $2500 and you're attracting a really low level of client. If you have the horsepower to achieve more with the skills you have, then I highly recommend going after a better class of customer.JK

How can I convince a client to sign up a 12 month SEO contract?
The best way to work around something like this is to map out the long-term strategy in phases. Build out a brief project map that outlines what they will receive within the 1-3 month period, the 4-7 month and the 8-12 month period. Set micro objectives for each period and this will give the client a bit more confidence in the short-term plans as well as the long. The key thing to remember here is that the client will often be worried about being tied into a contract that doesn't deliver results. As a result, you need to show why you need the time that you do. One thing that I often throw in is an extra incentive for longer contract lengths - for example, an extra PR/content campaign or some paid advertising extras. Try to assure them of some shorter term results that you can obtain as 'quick wins' and build their confidence this way - the major targets will always be longer term but if you can demonstrate that there will be progress between then they will be a lot more receptive.MH

How does my startup hire an affordable marketing expert?
I don't even know how to answer this. Do you know what the difference between McDonalds and the local burger joint that is filing for bankruptcy is? It's marketing. McDonalds is worth billions of dollars not because of the quality of their food, but because of their marketing. Marketing is not an expense. A janitor is an expense. Your computer is an expense. Marketing is an INVESTMENT. Would you shop around for the cheapest heart surgeon? Of course not. Because you would likely end up dead. Why, then, do you shop around for a marketing expert? Are you ok with your company going bankrupt? Is that worth the small savings to you? No. Of course not. Hire someone who is good at marketing. Hire someone who knows what they are doing. Buy yourself a Lamborghini with your profit the first quarter. Get a beach house in hawaii. Grab a yacht. Or, try to find your business the cheapest heart surgeon you can and then spend the next five years wondering why such a solid business idea failed in the first 6 months. I'm passionate about this exact topic because all those statistics you read about "70% of businesses failing in two years" are solely because of horrible marketing.AM

How to price conversion rate optimization?
I provide conversion optimisation services on a price per day on a rolling monthly basis. I did it this way, because my background is in software development consultancy and everything was estimated and billed out on a daily basis. I also provide one off services which is normally priced based on how long it would take to complete. I prefer to work with customers on a rolling monthly basis because I can have an impact on many aspects of their digital marketing and business processes. It means I'm also not tied to only creating split tests but have the freedom to advise and have a positive impact on multiple areas of a business.KM
