In this case you might start posting articles on your website or blog giving small business owners useful information on things like the elements of good website design mistakes to avoid when setting up a website and more. Then you promote those articles to draw readers to your blog and at the end of each article. You try to entice them to stay in contact perhaps by offering more great information in exchange for their email address. Once they’ve signed up you follow up with a series of emails providing more useful free information while also trying to entice them to sign up as a paying customer.

Instead of asking strangers to part with their money immediately you’re trying to build trust with them first. It takes longer to go from first contact to money in the bank but if you do it well it can be very effective as we’ll discover shortly.
