(This blog post about franchise leads<\/b> is for franchise company executives, small business loan providers, franchise attorneys, accountants, SEO firms, web design firms, and any other business that provides products or services to future business owners<\/i>.)<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking to own a franchise<\/strong>, buy a business opportunity, dealership\/distributorship, or any other type of business, please go to this website<\/a>\u2026because the information below\u00a0isn’t\u00a0meant for you<\/i>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Connections<\/h2>\n

In an age where the market is\u00a0over-saturated\u00a0with franchise business opportunity directories and portals, the team (me<\/i>) behind The Franchise Biz Directory<\/strong><\/a> has successfully developed an optimized process to effectively reach and engage users in a\u00a0non-intrusive\u00a0way. The directory targets users through their search to be their own boss and fosters a mutually beneficial experience by connecting opportunity seekers with opportunities<\/i>.<\/p>\n

That was one of the most boring paragraphs this franchise blog has ever presented<\/i><\/b>.<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sorry. I’ll try again.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Get Unlimited Franchise Leads And Web Traffic!<\/h2>\n

Now, we\u2019re cookin. Check this out.<\/p>\n

I’ve submitted the image below for inclusion in the Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary and Thesaurus<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Here are the words that accompanied my submission:<\/p>\n

To whom it may concern,<\/p>\n

Let me start-off by telling you that I really respect what you do. Your site helps millions <\/i>of people each and every day define the words that make up our language. You do so in a first-class way, and your website is very easy to navigate; readers can quickly gather their needed information.<\/p>\n

I also like the way that you use images on your site, and I have one that I would like to have added, if you feel that it\u2019s appropriate. (I sure do!)<\/i><\/p>\n

I\u2019m proposing that you add the image below to the following page on your website:<\/p>\n

https:\/\/www.merriam-webster.com\/dictionary\/no-brainer<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"list<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The image above\u00a0would<\/i> be perfect if \u00a0it was inserted underneath\u00a0the term, \u201cNo-brainer<\/i>\u201d in Webster’s.<\/p>\n

Now, I don\u2019t expect you to know all about franchises<\/a><\/strong> or business opportunities.<\/p>\n

And, I definitely wouldn’t expect you to know all about online visibility<\/a><\/strong> and SEO.<\/p>\n

I just want you to trust that I do;<\/i> that\u2019s why I\u2019m making a formal request to include the image above in your terrific online dictionary and thesaurus.<\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Joel M. Libava<\/p>\n

The Franchise Biz Directory<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Franchisors: What If They Can’t Find Your Franchise Online?<\/h2>\n

Answer:<\/strong> Then nothing else matters.<\/p>\n

The $20,000 that you invested on your website, for example. It’s great that you did it. A great looking and user-friendly business website is crucial to have these days. But, if the people you’re trying to get to visit your website don’t know about it, because it’s not listed in enough places, than having a great website doesn’t matter.<\/p>\n

\"get<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

A Tiny Investment<\/h2>\n

You\u00a0shouldn’t\u00a0<\/del>won\u2019t need an executive committee to approve the small investment needed to add your listing to the Franchise Biz Directory.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s because listing prices on The Franchise Biz Directory<\/strong>\u00a0start at less than $35 a month. And, you get way more than just a web listing on a Directory that’s easily found by prospective franchisees who are searching for franchises to own.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

My<\/i> Web Visitors-Your<\/i> Leads<\/h2>\n

Visitors to The<\/strong> Franchise Biz Directory<\/strong> can\u2019t contact me<\/i> for more information about what you\u2019re<\/em> offering.<\/p>\n

If a visitor to The Franchise Biz Directory<\/strong> is interested in your franchise or business opportunity-or in the products and services that you offer, they must go to your website<\/i><\/b> if they want to learn more and contact you.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s because I don\u2019t provide \u201cRequest More Information<\/i>\u201d forms on The Franchise Biz Directory<\/strong> site. (Unless they’re enrolled in a special marketing program in which there are\u00a0specific\u00a0lead-tracking forms set-up.<\/em>)<\/p>\n

Most<\/i> website owners want their visitors to spend as much time as possible on their sites. I don’t. Call me *crazy.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou\u2019re crazy, Joel<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

But, really…I want visitors to The Franchise Biz Directory<\/strong> to spend as little time as possible on the site<\/i>.\u00a0I want them to go to your<\/i> website<\/b>.<\/p>\n

*<\/strong>Maybe my idea isn’t so crazy after all. That’s because a couple of high-traffic franchise portals are now offering to do the same thing…send traffic to their advertisers<\/em> websites.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take Your Best Shot<\/h2>\n

I want you<\/i><\/strong> to have control of the process as early as possible.<\/p>\n

You’ve spent thousands of dollars designing and (hopefully<\/i>) optimizing your website.<\/p>\n

You<\/i> know your offering better than anyone.\u00a0I don\u2019t want to get in the way.<\/p>\n

I just want to bring you people that are looking to get into business for themselves.<\/p>\n

After that, it\u2019s up to you…take your best shot at converting those visitors to new\u00a0owners<\/em>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Increase Your Odds<\/h2>\n

To increase your odds of getting found online by people who want to start a business<\/strong>, you have to make sure that your web presence is powerful.<\/p>\n

One way to do that is to increase the number of places that your website can be found.<\/p>\n

Adding your listing to a quality web directory is one such way…especially if it\u2019s in your niche.<\/p>\n

Go Here For More Information<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Get some traffic and convert it into franchise leads.
