Issue #149 | July 17th, 2022
As you may know, our very own Captain Nick of the Offline Seas is currently voyaging around beautiful Washington state.
That guys always getting into something, right? He was even joking to me about how his office at home has sat vacant for so long. Like he feels like he should have an office… but he's always working remotely.
Not a bad problem to have.
Anyway, let's hop on down to another action-packed round of Shark Bites…
[Note: Catch of the Week is where we share some of the greatest weekly wins from Sharks that write in. If you'd like to be “nominated” for Catch of the Week, be sure to post in the Remote Agency Owners Facebook Group using #win. And you may be featured too. Now on to the good stuff…]
This time on “Catch of the Week…”
- Up first, Sandy Alexander writes in with a website win for a 1-person startup. Sounds like a cool project and who knows, maybe this 1-man band will have more gigs for you moving forward.
- Next, Remote Millionaire Member, Martin Jackson, writes in with THREE great wins. A nice FITD website “amends”… Google Analytics setup… and technical support on a training portal website.
- And then there's Marvin Drobes who's at it again! This time with a Google Maps setup… AND a sweet deal with a pharmacist.
- Next we have RM Member, Roger Chappel, with a juicy win from a referral client (the best clients in my opinion).
- And then there's RM Member, Gaetano Javarone, with a nice win and some words of encouragement.
Another great week is in the bag! Thanks for the writing in with your wins everyone and great job!

2 Easy Ways To Control Your
Lead Flow Starting Today
What's the most important part of an agency? Simply put, your flow of leads. In fact, the reason so many fail is because they have zero control over their leads.
They just kinda hope and pray. And take what they can get.
That's why Nick filmed this #Shorts (and it is short like 30 seconds or so) video about 2 easy ways to control your lead flow.
But a word of warning: One way is so powerful that we've had to shut it off because it brought too many leads.
Yes a good problem to have.
On this week's Aloha Friday Local Marketing Jam Session we chatted the all-important topic of…
The highly-qualified lead.
This topic is important because a highly-qualified lead is the difference between making an easy sale… and wasting an hour on a sales call.
Trust me when I say, if you could have one advantage in business, qualified leads are the advantage you should ask for.
Anyway, to check out the replay, head here:
You probably heard us talk about this a lot before already… but just a friendly reminder that you only have until tomorrow to pick up Local Leader and our very generous bonus package with it.
This bonus package gives you everything you need to take a lead… and turn it into a paying client.
And right now Local Leader is still so cheap that'd it would be silly to at least not check it out. The deadline to do so is Tomorrow, Monday, July 18th at Midnight Eastern.
To do that, head here:
Well Shark, thanks for playing this round. If you enjoyed it, consider sending this off to a friend who may need a dose of marketing knowledge.
And we'll be back in your inbox with more goodies tomorrow.
Mahalo,
Tom Gaddis
