The Secret to Winning Customers Wasn't What This LA Company Was Selling

Its close rate went from 12.4% to 23.1% without changing a single ad. The difference was what customers saw before they decided.

A customer checks a USA News feature on her phone beside two neighboring shops, facing the open shop.
Two businesses on the same street. Only one gave the customer a reason to walk in.

Quick question...

When was the last time you lost a client to a competitor you know you're better than?

Not because your offer was worse. Not because your price was wrong.

But because they just looked better.

You're good at what you do. You know it. Your past clients know it.

But the person looking you up?

They don't know you yet.

They Just Looked Better

Before anyone sits down with you, they've already looked you up and decided whether they trust you.

The ones from your ads do it. The ones your best client sent you do it too.

Try it yourself. Google your business name. Then ask ChatGPT about your business.

What does a customer find that wasn't written by you?

What happens between the ad and the call

  1. 1They see your ad
  2. 2They look you up
  3. 3They decide who to call

The difference is what they find before they call.

He Kept the Same Ads. More Customers Said Yes.

Before AnotherZero, Nic Abelian built a local-services company in Los Angeles to $35 million a year.

A real business. With marketing. Appointment setters. A sales team that sat across from strangers and had to close them face to face.

Then he made one change.

Without changing a single ad.

“Those articles are now online, all over my website and socials, and gotten incredible feedback. Before they published, they made sure everything was perfect.”

Herman Chavez · Agency owner

What He Put in Front of Customers

It was getting featured in the media. And putting those "As Seen On" logos on everything.

The website. The ads. The mailers. The billboards. The sales decks.

Even the scripts his team read when the phone rang.

His prospects had something to go on besides his own sales pitch.

Strangers don't believe you. They believe other people talking about you.

The same $1. A bigger return.

It's the same reason reviews and testimonials work.

The biggest personal brands and the biggest companies don't just tell you they're credible. They show you, with logos you already recognize.

Your customer is already there, typing your name into Google or asking ChatGPT about you.

One article gives them something to find.

No Retainer. No Months of Waiting.

But how do you get featured?

Without spending thousands on a PR agency. Without cold pitching journalists who never write back. Without just getting lucky.

You don't need to write the article or sign a monthly retainer.

Here's how it works:

  1. Answer a few questions and pick your outlet. Tell us about your business and what you want to highlight.
  2. Our team writes your article. You review it and request any revisions you want.
  3. You approve it, and it runs in the outlet you picked within 7 days.

Here's What $97 Covers

You may be wondering, how can it be only $97? The reason is simple.

We publish over 1,000 articles a month, which means direct relationships with editorial teams and rates individual businesses could never access.

  • A custom, SEO-optimized article about your business, 800 to 1,000 words, so you can show up when customers search your name.
  • Unlimited revisions, and nothing runs until you approve it, so you can be proud of every word.
  • Your pick of 60+ outlets, including USA News, Women's Insider, CEO Times, NY Weekly, Biz Weekly, Men's Insider and New York Review, so you can choose the one that fits your business.
  • Published within 7 days, so you can show it to the next customer who looks you up.
  • A custom website banner and a social media kit, so you can announce it the day it runs.
  • "As Seen On" logos to use forever, so you can put them on your website, your email signature and your profiles.
