A Special WordPress Popup Plugin That Increase My Subscribers By 10 Times!

KC — Mon, 22 Apr 2013 00:37:26 +0000

I like to ask people how much a potential customer would worth to them. If I can teach you a method how to get people (especially your potential customer) subscribe and follow you without you actively looking, wouldn’t it be great? If this is what interests you, read this entire post as I am going to share with you how I manage to increase my leads by 10 times!

Smart use of Popup!

I used to hate popups especially when I visit other people’s websites and it is very disturbing to have to close windows after they popup so many times! But in reality, popup does work, especially with the right techniques!

In the past, I only have about 4 to 6 signups for my online course every month. But after I implemented this smart popup plugin, I managed to get 30 to 60 people sign up for my online course every month! This also increase the number of people signing up for my offline classes!

The following is the popup I show visitors in my website.

Advanced Techniques For Effective Popups!

The following are some advanced techniques you can implement with this plugin to increase your conversion rate immediately!

Configure the popup to show after 7 seconds when a visitor land on your site! - Very Effective!
Only show two fields maximum (First name and email) for people to fill up! – If you can, it is even better to just need their email.
Display in selected page (Highly targeted!).

The plugin that I recommend is able to do all the above and more. This plugin is not free and I am glad that now it gets me new Subscribers everyday! Click here to see and read more about this amazing popup plugin!

Productivity and Innovation Credit 2013 (PIC Grant) Singapore

KC — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 07:17:02 +0000

I am excited to share that IRAS (Inland Revenue Authority of Singapore) has announced recently that they are now giving PIC (Productivity and Innovation Credit) Bonus on top of the PIC Grant last year. This means that businesses can now claim back more than what they will invest for productivity!

WebSprout Academy courses are 100% eligible for companies to claim back their course fee via PIC Grant now. You can get in touch with us for customized trainings in the area of WordPress, Search Engine Optimization, Google Analytics or computer productivity programs using this contact form.

An Example

The following example shows how much you can get back via the PIC Grant.

Assuming Company A pay WebSprout $6,000 for SEO Training.
IRAS will pay Company A $6,000 (as PIC Bonus, $1 to $1 matching) AND IRAS will pay Company A 60% of $6,000 which is $3,600.

So in total, Company A will get back $9,600 but the only investment Comapny A made is only $6,000!

Other Things You Can Claim

The productivity improvement activities covered under PIC are:

Acquisition or leasing of PIC Information Technology (IT) and Automation Equipment;
Training of employees;
Acquisition and In-licensing of Intellectual Property Rights;
Registration of patents, trademarks, designs and plant varieties;
Research and development activities; and
Design projects approved by DesignSingapore Council.
More details are available here.

Need a PIC Grant Consultant?

I happened to know of a PIC Grant Consultant and if you need assistance in claiming, do contact me and I can refer the Consultant to assist you.

Have a productivity year ahead!
