Checklist: 5 ways to make your public speaking website beautiful and highly converting

1. Don’t break the 5 second rule

The moment a visitor lands on your website you only have 5 seconds to make a good impression.

That’s 5 short seconds to convince your visitor to stay on your website – and don’t hit the ‘back’ button.

Make sure the text on your website is appealing and gets your visitor excited. Don’t waste the first 5 seconds of somebody’s visit with unnecessary fluff.

2. Don’t confuse your visitor with too many call to actions

Great call to actions draw the attention of your visitors.

That said, you don’t want your call to action buttons fighting for the attention of your visitor. Pick the most important call to action for that page, and go with it.

In case you want to show multiple call to actions anyway, make sure to give them a different design, with your primary call to action being the most notable one.

3. Use video footage to make your website come alive

In the list with website examples you found some cool websites which use video background in the header of their website. If you have video footage yourself, definitely consider doing this as well.

• It makes your website come alive
• It adds credibility and makes you look professional

4. Use a ‘smart lead form’ to turn visitors into clients

Getting someone to visit your website is one thing. Getting them to do business with you is the next one.

Sure, you can add your contact information to your website – you should – but don’t expect people to be calling right away.

Make it easy. Add a ‘discuss your project’ contact form to enable them to get in touch with you.

Make it as easy as possible. I recommend not using more than 3 fields in your contact form.

5. Design mobile first

Last year over 52% of all the website traffic worldwide came from mobile devices.

More than half of the website visits are on a mobile device.

This percentage will only increase in the coming years, therefore the mobile design of your website is crucial for the success of your flower shop business.

When designing your website, think about the mobile design before you build your desktop website.

Growth hacking: 3 powerful strategies to promote your speaking website

1. Use a LinkedIn-bot to generate traffic on autopilot

Allright. You’re now probably thinking one of two things:

1. That sounds spammy. I’m not going to do that.
2. A bot? How does that even work? I’m not a scientist.

Trust me, I thought the same as you. But it’s not as sketchy as it seems.

Dux-Soup is a LinkedIn tool which allows you to ‘look’ at 100 LinkedIn profiles per day.

This tool automatically visits LinkedIn profiles of people of your choice. In the past, I’ve used this a lot to get in touch with business owners.

I would have Dux-Soup open the profiles of 100 business owners per day.

It’s actually pretty simple:

1. Download the Dux-Soup tool
2. Open your LinkedIn account
3. Search for ‘business owner’ or any other job description’
4. Click the ‘Visit profiles’ button.

Now here comes the important part: Make sure your LinkedIn profile is optimized.

This means:

• A good looking profile picture
• A good tagline which describes what you do
• A great profile description which demonstrates your skills as a constructor
• Some nice portfolio projects on your LinkedIn profile

Let’s say 20% of every profile visit converts into a ‘return-visit’. That will mean 20 potential business owners who look at your LinkedIn profile every day.

That’s 600 potential leads in a month.

2. Target hot traffic with retargeting ads

Imagine.

A potential client is looking for flower shop services and stumbled upon your website. But after scrolling through your website for 30 seconds, he or she got a phone call from a friend. After calling for 20 minutes they forgot about your website and they close down their computer.

Auch.

That’s why I use retargeting advertisements to bring back these lost leads.

This will enable you to display advertisements to people who visited your website.

Just install a Facebook pixel on your website to target all your website visitors with an advertisement on Facebook or Instagram.

3. Experiment with offline marketing

Here’s one I absolutely love. If you send cold emails to potential clients, probably 10% or less will open it. Now what if you change that to physical letters? That’s more like 90%.

Now I don’t want you to write the entire sales letter by hand, simply the name+address on the envelope will do.  

Bonus tip: I’d recommend you to buy coloured envelopes, as they get noticed better and will increase your open rate.
