Keep on going with your Plumbers website Idea,
I know it works because that is exactly one of my business models..
I build very simple websites for all kinds of local businesses I never sell the sites I rent them out an a yearly basis full fee upfront and keep control .. If the client decides not to renew I simply move on and sell to someone else in the same business .. simples ..

I charge according to the business size and of course make sure of google page one listings for at least 10 keyword phrases.

My fees start at

I love cold callers, gives me an excuse to be abusive on the telephone without feeling guilty. Had two insurance brokers this week, I felt great afterwards, not sure as to whether they felt the same....

I do that as well, harass them about their details, "What's your name and address?"

I get referral business from my existing clients I seldom need to go looking

Good Luck

Blimey.... even the largest businesses on the planet need to go looking for new customers, so your doing rather well lol

Thanks,
Barney

For me It's all about life balance I stopped wanting to be rich a long time ago .. Realising that I was happier with a modest income than keep chasing after more, I have been in a position of employing people and that seemed to entail taking on their families, Their problems etc. I was always chasing after business so my employees were kept in work.. Until one fine frosty morning I had an ache in my chest .. you can guess the rest..

All sounds so familiar! By the time you take into account the overhead, man management, stress, governments slice of the pie, you suddenly realize PPC is so much easier

Hope your in better health now!
