Safety in the Workplace: Be Rigorous - Not Ruthless In April of 2005, I conducted a survey of more than 250 real estate marketing websites. These were not corporate websites -- they were the personal marketing websites of individual agents.You may have read the book Good to Great, by Jim Collins. In his book he explains how many companies thought being good is… well, “good enough.” In these times of constant change and global competition, it is important to always look for improvement --especially when it comes to safety.Who wants to settle for “good enough” safety? In most cases, good means the company is willing to settle for an injury. “Good enough” safety means setting safety goals based What shocked me was that the majority of these websites (nearly 65%) had no way to capture the email addresses of visitors.

Likewise, on a real estate marketing website, most visitors will leave without contacting the agent who owns the site. If people leave your website without "dropping off" their contact information, there's a strong chance you'll never hear from them again. That's the nature of the Internet, and it reinforces the importance of having a lead-capturing system on your website. What happens when people visit your site: 1. They will respond immediately (with a phone call or email). 2. They will sign up for something and then leave the site. 3. They will leave the site without doing anything. Obviously, you want visitors to take the first or second action. But we know from statistical surveys that most visitors will take action #2 or #3. That makes action #2 (sign up and leave) the overlap between what you want visitors to do and what they're most likely to do. So make sure you have something for people to sign up for on your website. This is called an "opt in" mechanism -- visitors will opt in (or subscribe) to receive future communications from you.
