Discovery Call Notes and agenda
Q: What will my role be? SEO or broader strategy? Will I contribute to product pages, blogs, Video, social?
Q: as its an e-com platform, content includes product/category pages.
Q: ow do I mitigate providing loads of value that’s implemented poorly?
“I personally love a one-time audit followed by project-based with very clear KPIs.”
How do I provide an accurate quote
I suggested this call so I can better understand where Greenspoon needs help, what you’re trying to achieve in 2024, and how you see us working together.
I have a quick checklist of questions to run through, and then I’ll provide a quote for two packages at the end.
My AI assistant will be recording the call, too, if that’s okay, so I can give my full attention. You can also share internally with the deck.
