The Agency Website as a Selling Tool

Let’s be honest, most agency websites are designed to make the agency team feel good about itself. They certainly aren’t designed to engage clients. From cliché-ridden copy to self-indulgent waxing about the future, most agency websites are missing the opportunity to generate leads and convert business.

Based on the latest best practices from Mirren’s on-site training, Brent Hodgins will outline the key principles to ensure your website is operating as an effective selling tool. You will leave with an approach for evaluating the effectiveness of your own online presence.

Handouts will be provided to Mirren Members. You can learn more about membership here.
