Most visitors come to the website through your homepage. Some of the most important information you want to showcase is on your opportunities or
investment pages. This requires the visitor to take an additional step. When they take that next step, they
register at least two pages viewed during that session.
Someone spending more than two minutes on your site is engaged and has found the site's content to be relevant to their search. The longer a visitor spends in a session, the more engaged they are as a potential
lead.
Bounce rate is closely related to both pages/session and average session duration. It is a clear indicator of how qualified the traffic to your site is. A general rule is to try to keep bounce rates lower than 60%. A high bounce rate is a sign that visitors to your site are not finding what they were looking for. A low bounce rate
indicates visitors are finding your site for the right reasons.

franchising funnel.
Streamline Lead Management Process
We recommend building out a process for managing franchise leads. 54 could create an automated
system that aligns with the Go Mini’s franchise sales process. When should a prospect submit their
financial information? What can be done to help qualify candidates before they take up the time of the
Go Mini’s team?
Maximize Lead GenerationMany franchise brands make the mistake of purging leads from their sales process after a short period of time. This is a waste of time, money and resources. Buying a franchise is a big decision and the buying cycle can be lengthy. We recommend developing a
12 month plan to nurture leads. A prospect may be at the early stages of research when they fill out a lead
form. We want to make sure that when they are ready to invest, Go Mini’s is there to reengage them.
