  • Hello Authenticliving Owner,

    My name’s Eric and for just a second, imagine this…

    - Someone does a search and winds up at Authenticliving.
    - They hang out for a minute to check it out. I’m interested… but… maybe…
    - And then they hit the back button and check out the other search results instead.
    - Bottom line – you got an eyeball, but nothing else to show for it.
    - There they go.

    This isn’t really your fault – it happens a LOT – studies show 7 out of 10 visitors to any site disappear without leaving a trace.

    But you CAN fix that.

    Web Visitors Into Leads is a software widget that works on your site, ready to capture any visitor’s Name, Email address, and Phone Number. It lets you know right then and there – enabling you to call that lead while they’re literally looking over your site.

    Time is money when it comes to connecting with leads – the difference between contacting someone within 5 minutes versus 30 minutes later can be huge – like 100 times better!

    Plus, now that you have their phone number, with our new SMS Text With Lead feature, you can automatically start a text (SMS) conversation… so even if you don’t close a deal then, you can follow up with text messages for new offers, content links, even just how you doing? notes to build a relationship.

    Strong stuff.

  • Hello to the Authenticliving Owner,

    My name’s Eric, and I recently came across your site, Authenticliving, while browsing online. Your site showed up near the top of the search results, so whatever you’re doing for visibility seems effective.

    If I may ask: after someone like me finds Authenticliving, what typically happens?

    Is your site generating valuable inquiries for your business?

    Many visitors view a website and then leave without taking the next step. Research suggests that a majority of visitors exit quickly, leaving no contact information.

    Consider this idea: What if there was a straightforward way for each visitor to indicate they’d like a call from you right when they arrive?

    You can make this happen.

    Web Visitor is a tool that works on your site, ready to securely gather a visitor’s name, email, and phone number. It alerts you immediately, so you can speak with that person while they are still viewing your site.

    Please visit:
    https://trustedleadgeneration.com
    to see a live demonstration of Web Visitor and observe precisely how it works.

    Acting promptly matters when it comes to building connections. The difference between engaging with someone within a few minutes, versus waiting longer, can be substantial.

    Our new SMS Text With Lead feature allows you to begin a text conversation as soon as you have their number. Even if they aren’t ready right now, you can keep in touch with updates, offers, and helpful information.

    Please visit the link above to learn what Web Visitor can do for your business. You might be surprised at how much more interest you can capture.

    Eric

    P.S. Web Visitor offers a 14-day evaluation period and includes the ability to reach out internationally. Interested individuals may be ready to speak with you now, so please don’t miss out.

  • Hello to the Authenticliving Owner,

    I am Eric and I recently came across your website at Authenticliving. I found it after a search, so your visibility seems to be working well.

    Your content looks helpful.

    However, one thing might be missing:

    A simple, prompt way for visitors to connect with you.

    Research suggests that many visitors leave a site quickly without providing any contact information. Once they go, there’s no way to follow up.

    Consider this approach:

    Web Visitors Into Leads is a tool that operates on your site, ready to gather each visitor’s name, email address, and phone number. You will know as soon as someone shows interest, allowing you to speak with them while they’re still viewing your site.

    View a Demonstration https://actionleadgeneration.com

    Once you have their phone number, you can also begin a text conversation. If they aren’t ready to engage at that exact moment, you can maintain communication later by sharing additional updates or simply checking in.

    Everything described is straightforward to implement and may help improve your interactions with potential contacts.

    Please visit https://actionleadgeneration.com to learn more about what Web Visitors Into Leads can do for you. It could help you connect with more interested individuals right now.

    Eric

    P.S. Web Visitors Into Leads includes a trial period and supports international communication. There may be individuals ready to speak with you now, so please don’t miss the opportunity.

    Time is of the essence when it comes to connecting with leads – the difference between contacting someone within 5 minutes compared to 30 minutes later can be significant.

    Moreover, now that you’ve got that phone number, with our new SMS Text With Lead feature, you can instantly start a text (SMS) conversation immediately… which is so effective, because connecting with someone within the first 5 minutes is 100 times more efficient than waiting 30 minutes or more later.

    The new text messaging feature lets you follow up frequently with new offers, content links, even just follow-up notes to develop a relationship.

    Everything I’ve just described is very easy to implement, cost-effective, and beneficial.

  • Hello to the Authenticliving Owner. This is Eric and I noticed Authenticliving a short time ago.

    It appears well structured… now what?

    What I mean is, when someone like me discovers your website – either through a search or just browsing around – what happens next? Are you receiving meaningful inquiries from your site, or enough to meet your needs?

    Honestly, most business websites come up a bit short when it comes to attracting engaged visitors. Research indicates that 70% of a site’s visitors leave and never return after only a moment.

    Here is an idea…

    What about making it simple for each visitor who arrives to receive a direct phone call from you as soon as they reach your site…

    This is possible –

    Web Visitors Into Leads is a tool that operates on your site, designed to collect each visitor’s name, email address, and phone number. It notifies you the moment they indicate interest – so that you can speak to that person while they are browsing your site.

    Please visit https://actionleadgeneration.com to view a live demonstration of Web Visitors Into Leads and understand how it operates.

    You will notice a significant difference between connecting with someone within 5 minutes compared to a half-hour or more later. This can greatly improve the likelihood of meaningful engagement.

    It becomes even more helpful. After you have their phone number, with our SMS text communication feature, you can promptly begin a text conversation.

    That way, even if you do not reach a conclusion immediately, you can stay connected through text messages for informational updates, content links, or simple check-in notes to establish a relationship.

    Quite helpful.

    Please visit https://actionleadgeneration.com to learn how Web Visitors Into Leads can support your business.

    You can potentially connect with many more interested individuals as soon as possible.

    Eric

    PS: Web Visitors Into Leads provides a no-cost 14-day evaluation period. It also supports international communication. There are interested individuals ready to speak with you now, so please do not delay.
