Getting clicks but no buyers on my services, why?

Hey Andrew,

I looked over your services and I can see a few reasons to why you're not getting any sales. I'll also tell you a few tricks to boost your sales here on SEOclerks

First, your services are pretty basic and people are probably clicking on them to just see what they are. Think of it this way, would you want to hire a service that has 1 or 2 sentences with a few images showing their work or would you want to pay someone a few dollars for a service they took time to set up and wrote up a few paragraphs of content? I would always go with the person who takes more time to set up their service because it shows more dedication. You need to add your past experiences, how many happy clients you've already helped with your design services, any certificates or awards you've gotten in the past to give yourself value in the eyes of the visitor. Write up your service like a biography as well as a service you're trying to sell. Give someone a story and they will already trust you before they even think about purchasing

Think of it like 1 in 1,000 views will purchase. If you set your goals to convert 1 in 1,000 people then you will be excited when you get 2 or 3 sales within those first 1,000 views

I've got a couple services, one of them I promote every once in a while, and that one gets around 2,000 views whenever I'm promoting it. I'll get around 6 sales, but those people tend to come back after they receive my work because of the high-quality content I write for them

One other thing I noticed about your services. They're written in a way that makes it sound like you require the person paying you to also give you dozens of images and color schemes in order to get the work done. People just want to pay you, get the work, give you critiques, and get a finished product. I offer web design services to customers through my marketing company and I ask them basic things like "What websites or website features do you like that we can put into your own design?" or "Do you have a color scheme in mind? If not, do you know of a website online right now that you want us to copy their colors?". The same thing goes for logo design, you can ask them if they have any logos in mind that they like, which you can base your design off of. You can also ask them what industry they're in, what colors they prefer, if they want their logos to be edgy or if they want a more approachable design. The more information you can get on the fly, without the customer having to search for images, the more sales you will actually get.

Remember, people want to take the easy route and you need to help them along that journey as a freelancer
