Have you heard of this one? It goes something like:
FREE Online Marketing Audit
Fill out this short form or give us a call to schedule your free online marketing audit.
What it should say:
FREE Online Marketing Audit
Fill out this short form or give us a call to schedule your free online marketing audit ONLY IF YOU HAVE LOTS OF MONEY TO SPEND.
I think that would be more fair. And it’s really not that big of deal. I won’t waste your time.
