Check out these episode highlights: 01:45 - Jon’s ideal client: “An ideal client for us is an established business. Usually, they have five or more staff. They are turning over more than a million dollars in revenue.” 02:39 - Problem Jon helps solve: “There's three main problems that we're typically solving for clients on a consistent basis, and the first is they have website shame. So, their website looks horrible. Secondly, there's not enough traffic coming through to the website. And thirdly, it's not designed for conversion.” 03:54 - Typical symptoms that clients do before reaching out to Jon: “So typically, well in 15 years of doing this, we see a lot of people that are ultimately just lost. They feel lost, they don't know where to start, and they worry they’re going to stuff it up. So maybe they've had some failed attempts at building websites in the past they've been horribly burnt, and can they ever trust a website designer again?” 05:11 - Common mistakes that people make before they find Jon’s solution: “so the first one is just selecting the wrong partner. So, I already sort of spoken about this. There's good website designers out of the poor ones, and the barriers to entry to become a website designer are very low, all you need is a laptop and an internet connection, and you are now a website designer.” 06:34 - Jon’s Valuable Free Action (VFA): “There's no silver bullet, there is no quick fix to really get the results that you are destined for, really it's about getting educated. So, you have a duty and a responsibility as a business owner to get informed around what constitutes digital marketing, you know, the events of 2020, I mean, that every business owner needs to now be a technology expert, as well.” 07:25 - Brad’s Valuable Free Resource (VFR): Check out Jon’s Website: fivebyfive.com.au 08:21 - A: Consistency, like most things in life.
