But here are a few key things to keep in mind. Under the Telemarketing Sales rule, it is illegal to telemarket credit repair services and then charge advance fees.

And you might already be doing a bunch of these, which is awesome, but I'll also be creating more in depth episodes of about specific marketing tactics that you can use. So drop your questions down in the comments and I'll do my best to answer them in a future episode. Number one Embrace email marketing. You could even start a monthly newsletter featuring client wins, credit facts and info about how you can help. You can also create downloadable lead magnets to build up your email list. Give away useful credit education material in exchange for someone's email address. It doesn't need to be complicated. 2. Focus on social media. If you're not on social media, now is the time. Share credit tips and tricks with your followers and show them the real you. I've seen some really impressive results from credit heroes who share their personal stories, struggles and daily life on social media. This can help create trust and connection with leads without ever talking to them. 3. Create educational content. Get into digital content marketing like blogs and YouTube videos like I'm doing here right now. Content is king when it comes to building trust and attracting leads. By sharing your expertise for free, potential clients are more likely to trust you and choose your services. When I was first building credit repair cloud, I didn't have money for advertising so I just wrote all night until the sun came up. I started a blog and I wrote a ton of articles which helped us to grow and you can easily start your own blog and cover common credit repair issues and tips for improving credit scores and then sprinkle in your success stories. The more value you provide through educational content, the more likely you are to convert leads into loyal customers and make sure to use SEO to reach a wider audience. Now what does that mean? That means use titles and phrases that people are already searching for. 4. Build up your website. Your website can become the ultimate sales machine. Just make sure there isn't a phone number or anything that leads to a call or a video conference prior to someone becoming a client. You can offer live text chat through your website or connected to social media and absolutely add a self service sign up with a form that signs people up as clients rather than giving them a phone number to call. And to make this even easier, we've just launched a really professional looking self service signup flow right In Credit Repair Cloud, clients can give their information, choose a payment plan, give their credit card details and start onboarding. It connects to Credit Repair Cloud and your secure client dashboard for a super smooth compliant experience. Check it out in your Credit Repair Cloud account today or get your 30 day free trial at signup.creditrepaircloud.com by using a self service signup on your website, you can start to make money while you sleep. And here's a bonus tip. Use sales videos. If your site has self service signup, create a video that explains how to properly check out and be sure to clearly point out that there is no payment today and that an onboarding call will happen after signup and then create and feature a video that explains your services and the benefits you offer. Other sales videos can serve as consultations, addressing concerns, answering questions and explaining the benefits of your services. You'll give people the info they need without getting on the phone. And remember, once someone has actually become a client, you can talk to them on the phone or zoom as much as you like. Number five Print and In Person Marketing. You can always market your business through print materials and in person marketing. For example, hand out flyers with QR codes that prospects can scan that take them to the self service signup. You can even meet prospects in person to have your consultations and credit audits. Here's my final point. Ultimately, it's really important that you adhere to the TSR to ensure compliance, but it doesn't mean that you can't grow your business or stop getting leads. Keep innovating and stay compliant and you'll find that your ability to attract and retain clients will only increase.
