Show Highlights:

• How Buzz finds value in helping those in service-centric businesses understand their value and individuality

• How Buzz’s “Rule of 26” strategy can help you use your website as a profit center
• Why “billing what you are worth” is a pitfall that MUST be addressed
• Why the next step is to create more value for your clients
• How to break down the math to increase your conversion rate by 26%
• Why your website should talk about the most important person: the website visitor (Change your “I” and “me” language to “you” and “your.”)
• Why most entrepreneurs make the common mistake of addressing too many problems and failing to niche down to a particular problem
• What your conversion rate optimization formula looks like: You must identify the problem, form a solution, and create a methodology that revolves around THEM
• How to use your website “About” page to make everything about you actually about THEM
• How to attract people to your website through SEO
• How to change your mindset around time and money
• Why you need to get rid of “PITA” clients and focus on attracting the next echelon up by raising prices and eliminating “tire-kickers” and “plate-lickers”
• Key takeaways about optimized websites: 
• Evaluate your current clients (How many are your perfect clients?), do research on why they are your best clients, make a profile of them, and figure out the commonality between them.
• Evaluate your website (Am I talking to my perfect clients with language focused on them?), address the clients’ problems, show them your success rate, and give them a good call-to-action/offer.
