1. Website Site Loading Time & Page Speed One of the essential satisfaction factors is fast loading time. The digital user is experiencing faster networks with 5G and more rapid devices. Therefore, their expectations evolve toward speed. Google rewards speed in its SEO ranking criteria and it will continue to be a trend in improving user experience. More than half of internet browsers expect a website to load fast and no more than two seconds after clicking a link. If this takes longer than two seconds, users will most likely leave the site before it even loads. Meaning you are losing potential customers and business. Overall, website performance directly impacts business success.

Not If, But How & With Who You Spend Your Money The old adage, “You have to spend money to make money” is something we as marketers know to be true. It’s why our services are necessary to every business. However, the outcome isn’t a guarantee. Take for example an up-and-coming law firm that reached out to us with stagnating growth, losing money in trying to reach more potential clients for themselves. The firm was successful and profitable, and ready to grow and take on more cases. They wanted to boost their marketing and find new ways to acquire new cases. But before we could boost anything for them, we had to find out why the money they were throwing into their own marketing efforts wasn’t paying off. Over the course of a year and a half with us, they quadrupled their marketing budget and we brought them up to several million dollars in caseload revenue.

Close More Deals with These Outbound Call Center Innovations Despite the changing sales landscape, the telephone remains the best channel for sales. Still, the difficulty of reaching prospects by phone (or any other channel) has increased dramatically in recent years. Luckily, call center systems – or sales dialers, as they’re more frequently referred to these days – have changed quite a bit as well. Gone are the days of dialing, texting, and taking notes by hand. Outbound call center software places VoIP calls through your computer, opening the door for a whole host of time-saving and connection-boosting features. Here are the big ones to consider when you’re looking for a call center solution:

Click-to-Call Click-to-call (C2C) lets sales reps start a phone call simply by clicking an icon next to a phone number, or by clicking the phone number itself. It’s a fairly common feature, but it’s important to note that there is some variation among available products when it comes to how C2C works. Some dialers allow for C2C across any website, whereas others only support C2C within supported CRMs. Read More Here To learn more about Kixie and other companies like them make sure to attend the B2B Marketing Expo on April 6th & 7th at the Los Angeles Convention Center!
