Simply brilliant! All this time i’ve been thinking i’d like to write staff scheduling software for cafe’s, if only i could make some contacts with cafe owners. This sounds like a great way to make those contacts.
Do you mind telling us which blog it is that you’ve got? Was it important to the prospects that your blog has lots of readers? Also, were the prospects you called in an internet-related industry where linkbacks and blog posts are important to them? Or were they simply bricks and mortar?
Thanks
- rgraham 15y agoThe blog in question is fledgling (~ 6 months old). It has little traffic, but is growing quickly. The industry is wildlife management. None of the business owners I spoke with even asked about traffic. They aren't (usually) technically sophisticated. They typically do have websites and they sell breeder stock wildlife online through different channels. Link backs and online PR can really benefit them and they recognize that. The business requires acreage, starter animals with recognized genetics/pedigree, and a lot of dirty work.
- chubs 15y agoThanks for letting me know. Sounds like they have a bit more of an online presence than my target, cafe's, and would appreciate the linkbacks/blog coverage more. Having said that, its good to hear that they didn't worry about traffic. Good on you for such a creative, simple, way of networking!
