Best Trade Bid leads Australia
May 25th, 2009
Best Trade Bid is now providing qualified leads that are affordable for Australian businesses.
How often have you seen a good idea that will bring customers to your door, but after cutting through the blurb and getting down to the bottom line, you eventually discover, that with the upfront cost of entry, or the ongoing fees it’s just another marketing risk with no guarantee?
“I’VE paid more for coffee and cake,’’ said Noel Sorensen, the latest business owner to reap the benefits of Best Trade Bid and its free to sign up.
Best Trade Bid is the concept of Rockhampton man Mark Carpenter who started planning and developing the website in 1999 and has now gone live with it. Now open for business, Best Trade Bid is designed to give both buyers and sellers the opportunity to get what they want with the greatest of ease.
Mark said the sole purpose of Best Trade Bid is to connect providers with buyers, allowing local businesses to get new customers without doing the hard yards. I want to provide qualified leads for Australian businesses that are affordable. “The concept is simple, you call us, we call them and they’ll call you,’’ he said.
“I was always frustrated trying to find providers for various projects I had on the go, researching the best deal, trying to get a contractor who is free to do the job.
“I thought it was much simpler if someone could do all the running around for me and that is where Best Trade Bid comes in.’’
Anyone with a product or service to offer can register on this website, from national companies to stay at home mums offering ironing services or babysitting.
Customers then come to the Best Trade Bid website and add a job, describing the product or service they are looking for and they are matched with registered providers in their area, those providers are then invited to contact the customers directly.
“The customer doesn’t have to waste time ringing around; they can just wait for the seller or service provider to contact them and its costs them nothing for their trouble,’’ Mark said.
“Registered businesses don’t have to search for work, as we send them interested customers details right to their inbox for the small fee of $10per customer.’’
It was this small introductory fee that attracted Adz Power Agency director Noel Sorensen.
Noel said “While the agency is located in Rockhampton, it is more than capable of servicing the advertising, marketing, web and graphic design needs of companies Australia wide.
When I heard about Mark’s Best Trade Bid idea and found that he already had registered companies not only from Queensland, but from Western Australia, South Australia and New South Wales, Tasmania, and Victoria, it seemed like an opportunity not to be missed,’’ he said.
“Where else can you gain viable leads without leaving your desk, simply by filling in a form about your business and all for a $10 contacting fee?
It is of benefit also that after the initial contact, the customer and seller deal directly with each other, working out the terms and conditions and giving businesses the opportunity to on sell without any interference from Best Trade Bid.’’
Mark said “When you think about it there are many benefits to registered businesses. A simple pay as you go system, creating new client opportunities, and future sales prospects that can become lifetime customers, together with tax deductable, prepaid lead credits that have no expiry date are just a couple of advantages”. “The earlier a business gets in and registers the better for them, because the buyers are starting to grab the opportunity with both hands to list their jobs free, saving themselves the hassle of doing their own search, leaving them free to get on with other important things. The list of business services and trades that can benefit from Best Trade Bid is huge.
Interested businesses can register on line for free, listing the products, services and scope of their work and providing a list of the area codes and suburbs they service.
As an added incentive, for the rest of the year, the Best Trade Bid team is donating a minimum of $2 to the Royal Flying Doctors Service every time a business purchases prepaid lead credits.
