Are you a consultant struggling to generate leads from your website? Does your site feel more like an online brochure than a lead gen machine?

In this episode of The Recognized Authority, host Alastair McDermott outlines the key differences between passive “trust-building” websites and more active, inbound marketing-focused sites designed specifically for lead generation.

Tune in to discover:

  • The 2 main types of websites used by consultants and professional services firms
  • When a more passive website is appropriate vs when you need an active inbound marketing site
  • How to transform your website into a lead generation machine
  • Vital elements your site needs for effective lead gen
  • The power of content and SEO to attract and convert ideal prospective clients
  • Why niche positioning is crucial for compelling content that converts

If your consulting website isn’t delivering leads, this episode will give you a step-by-step blueprint for evolving it into an effective inbound marketing machine.

Key Insights:

  • Most consultants rely on referrals, so passive websites that build trust/credibility are common
  • Active sites with inbound marketing tactics are better for attracting and converting cold leads
  • Key elements: conversion actions (contact forms, opt-ins), niche positioning, regular publishing of high-value content
  • SEO and content marketing generate traffic and leads on autopilot
  • Tighter niche positioning enables creation of compelling content that converts cold visitors

Strategies:

  • Use opt-in incentives like checklists/guides to collect emails
  • Set up email autoresponder sequences to build trust/relationships
  • Focus on creating niche-specific, high-value content regularly
  • Prioritize SEO optimization and promotion of content
