While our prospects use search every day, what steps are you taking to compete?  PPC for Funeral Home.  Promoting yourself online.  The concepts are the same: position yourself where your prospects are searching.

The typical searcher is creating more specific searches and 93% of them only review the search results on page 1.  Just 7% of searchers will look at page 2, and only 1% will get as far as page 3.  Unless you show on the first page, you will miss the mark.  Pay-Per-Click advertising helps you reach your market where they are looking - on page 1.

This raises a critical issue: you must be seen to be found; you must be found to get the clicks; you must get the clicks to secure new business.  Identifying the right keywords and listing them in a managed pay-per-click campaign is essential to driving revenue and achieving a solid ROI.

Pay Per Click lets you jump ahead of millions of competing listings quickly.  The search engines all use Pay-Per-Click as their primary advertising model.  With Pay-Per-Click (PPC) you advertise with the search engines.  You select the keywords you want to be found for and Google and Yahoo will feature you above millions.

With PPC advertising, pay-per-click lets you decide which keywords to be found for and what message should be shown in the search engine.  You only pay for the clicks and not for the impressions (the mere display of the listing). 

Comparing PPC clicks to a prequalification step, it quickly becomes apparent that these prequalified clicks are more valuable and can be extremely cost efficient.  Remember - people who search and click are your best prospects - they are searching for what you offer.

Do you think your PPC bid management strategies are working?  If you said "what strategies" you are in the right place.  But seriously, most companies are scrambling to keep up, leaving most of the profits on the table.
