ADVICE

Build And Rent Local Niche Websites

  • Do build and rank simple niche city websites, then rent the incoming leads to local businesses for recurring monthly fees.
  • Kyle targets local services (e.g., junk removal, auto glass) and forwards calls via tracking numbers after ranking the site on page one.
INSIGHT

Let Leads Prove Value With Free Trials

  • The core value is immediate, verifiable results: give a business a free trial of live calls and the leads do the selling for you.
  • Kyle sends calls for a week with no contract so the owner experiences revenue before paying a monthly flat fee.
ADVICE

Use Simple Cancellable Monthly Pricing

  • Do avoid contracts and use a cancellable monthly flat fee to reduce friction and build trust.
  • Kyle prefers simplicity over complex tiers because predictable billing keeps clients comfortable and reduces disputes.
