The close rate on an unanswered phone call, like you have to call them back, is closer to 10%. So you have a huge delta in conversion rate or lead to close rate." – Adam Aldred"If you're starting a business, your main goal whenever you're servicing a client...should be over delivering on whatever you've promised to do, knowing that when you work that way, people will want to brag about you to their friends." – Adam Aldred"Websites that I've built where we're actually adding personalized individual branded photography...the conversion rate is usually three to four times higher across all traffic sources." – Adam Aldred🔗 Links & ResourcesVisit Orsin’s WebsiteConnect with Adam on LinkedInFollow Orsin on LinkedInFollow Adam on TikTokFollow Adam on Instagram
