<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s a secret!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>(Something I only ever reveal to my private coaching members). <\/p>\n<p>But lets talk about why people always ask me. <\/p>\n<p>It has to be because they\u2019re not satisfied with their own. <\/p>\n<p>Hardly surprising given the number of pt\u2019s in America who have paid out a lot of cash for a website &#8211; often managed by some big online company for which they continue pay a monthly fee &#8211; and yet they see very few enquires coming in from it. <\/p>\n<p>At least, not as many as they would like!<\/p>\n<p>So here\u2019s what I\u2019d say on the website thing:<\/p>\n<p>If I gave you the name of my webmaster (I call him \u201cgeeky Dave\u201d), really, it wouldn\u2019t make any difference to you. <\/p>\n<p>Because, like most web masters, he knows nothing about \u201cdirect response marketing\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>(He\u2019ll admit that, too). <\/p>\n<p>But here\u2019s the thing. <\/p>\n<p>He doesn\u2019t need too. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBecause I do\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>And so anything that you see on any of my websites, it\u2019s been designed by me. <\/p>\n<p>Often on a scrap piece of paper, even the back of a beer mat, and sent to him with clear instructions of how I want the page to look\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u2026what I want it to say\u2026<\/p>\n<p>And most importantly of all, what I want the visitor to do as a result of being on that page. <\/p>\n<p>i.e. fill out a form., request a free report, call a special number etc etc etc. <\/p>\n<p>Anyway:<\/p>\n<p>The cure to an under performing website is NOT just jumping ship to ANOTHER webmaster. <\/p>\n<p>Reality is, they\u2019re all much the same. <\/p>\n<p>And (unless you tell them to do anything different), will just produce a website that sure, LOOKS pretty, but fails to compel people to respond or take action. <\/p>\n<p>(The SOLE reason for having it it up there in the first place). <\/p>\n<p>Having a pretty website with no reason to respond or take action would be a lot like walking into an Apple store with no one to answer your questions or tills to take your money &#8211; you\u2019re just going to walk right out and go somewhere else that can. <\/p>\n<p>All right. <\/p>\n<p>End of todays sermon.<\/p>\n<p>The key to having a profitable website is just this one thing:<\/p>\n<p>It has to follow the rules of \u201cdirect response marketing\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>Something that very few (if any) web masters will ever understand. <\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s just how it be. <\/p>\n<p>Better to learn it for yourself. <\/p>\n<p>Or, talk to someone about it who does.<\/p>\n<p>To do that, go here:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/pgough.wufoo.com\/forms\/do-you-need-some-help-\/\" target=\"_blank\">&#8211; Claim A Free 45 Minute Marketing Strategy Call With Paul >>>><br \/>\n<\/a><br \/>\nPaul.<\/p>\n<p>Note to physical therapist looking for marketing ideas&#8230;<\/p>\n<p>Click here to join Pauls email list and get Marketing ideas and strategies for you pt clinic sent to you by email:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/14239b173f72a2%3A1580dba8fb46dc\/5705241014042624\/\" target=\"_blank\">Click Here to Subscribe to Paul&#8217;s Marketing Tips Email List &gt;&gt;&gt; <\/a><script data-leadbox=\"14239b173f72a2:1580dba8fb46dc\" data-url=\"https:\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox\/14239b173f72a2%3A1580dba8fb46dc\/5705241014042624\/\" data-config=\"%7B%7D\" type=\"text\/javascript\" src=\"\/\/my.leadpages.net\/leadbox-836.js\"><\/script> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Q&#038;A time\u2026 \u201cPaul, who does your website?\u201d &#8211; \ufeff\ufeffClick here to visit my clinic website >>> My answer?
