Turn Your Website Into A Lead Machine

Earlier this year, I had the opportunity to speak at the ISA Ontario Conference in Windsor, where I shared a short but powerful presentation titled “Turn Your Website Into a Lead Machine.”

Originally, I planned to host a live webinar, but life got in the way—I had just moved into a new apartment. So instead, I recorded it straight from my walk-in closet (yes, really). That’s the video you’ll find below.

In the presentation, I walk through eight quick wins that any tree service company can apply to start generating more leads from their website. These are practical, no-fluff tips that come from years of experience helping arborists grow their businesses online.

Here are a few key takeaways:

  • Make it easy to contact you. Add clear, persistent call-to-action buttons and ensure your phone number and contact form are front and center.
  • Build trust with visitors. Show off your ISA or TCIA credentials, display real Google reviews, and highlight your qualifications.
  • Use simple, effective lead forms. Don’t scare visitors away with overly complex forms—make it quick and easy for them to reach out.
  • Optimize for local search. Google rewards businesses that clearly state where they work. Focus on your local area first, then expand with location-specific service pages.
  • Create helpful, local content. A steady flow of blog posts tied to your services and local area will help you get discovered and stay top-of-mind.

I also cover how to track your website’s performance, speed it up, and make sure it works great on mobile—because most of your customers are probably searching from their phones.
