Recently TryMyWork sat down with one of our most successful Service Providers to see what we could learn from her experience. Jamie was featured in one of the first promotional emails we sent out and her results confirmed our faith in TryMyWork’s vision of neighbors coming together, hiring one another, and building their businesses. Jamie’s success shows that a great profile with a clearly described, valuable sample will bring in new customers. Listening to Service Providers like Jamie, who offer customers upgrades on their samples, has also helped us come up with new promotions like our new bonus deals.
Jamie's Experience
My profile was so easy to set up. TMW helped me get started and I just added my strengths, how long I’ve been in practice, etc. Then I had 5 responses in 2 days and another 3 in about a week. Out of all the samples I’ve given, more than half, (5 out of 8) are going to be consistent clients. And that’s a pretty damn good number!
Things Jamie Loves about TMW
I love the social networking part of it. I wanted to meet people outside of my norm and this allows me to meet people from our community that I might not otherwise come in contact with. I’m on this website to promote health and wellness by providing corrective care and treatment. I’m also here to promote a local lifestyle by supporting local business people.
Safety is a plus! Business cards don’t offer that. My profile does, they can check me out and feel safe and confident trying my sample. I don’t have my own website and I don’t think I have to get one. Thanks to TMW, anyone can view my profile.
How to Further Promote Yourself
I put my TMW profile on my business cards. Business cards can be thrown away and don’t ensure someone will remember you. When my profile is on there too people can check me out and see more about what I do.
I also put TMW on my Facebook page. This has led my friends to create their own TMW profiles, which is great!
I am encouraging customers to upgrade their 30 minute sample to a full hour. That’s good for both me and the client!
