Do You Own Or Manage An Hydroponics Or Aquaponics Business?

If the answer is yes, than I have an offer that will probably interest you!

Who I Am

My name is Roger Pilon. I am French Canadian and have been living in Costa Rica for nearly 20 years now. I am also the editor of the Hydroponics Aquaponics Monster Directory.  One of my goal in  2010 is simple: no more commuting. I want to work from home!

How Can I Make Your Life Easier

As a manager or owner:

1. did you ever thought offering chat services on your web site but had a second thought because of your budget?
2. dreamed to have somebody answering your phone, better with an 800 numbers?

I can help you fill your needs in 2010 at a price that will surprise you!

Here are the details!

Emails

Too many emails not enough time! And as always, the 80 /20 rules applies: 20 % of your emails received are important and need your attention, 80% can be “nearly” discarded.

What could I do to release the pain to be bombarded by emails? Filtering!

How could it be done safely for you?

• you create a new email address
• all emails you received are forwarded to this new email filtered in 3 categories: red – yellow – green
• you reply as per priorities

This is just a way to structure this email service. There is a toll free number at the end of this article where you can reach me. I would love to share with you a few ideas of mine on that matter.

Online Support

Offering chatting on your site will increase the ” perceived value “. It is also an outstanding tool to build

relationships with customers and eventually (ultimate goal) make additional sales that otherwise would have been lost forever.

Installing a chat script is not complicated. Many are available for free.

Why Not A Toll Free Number In 2010?

I am not in the 800 numbers business but nevertheless here is what I can do for you:

1. set up an 800 number (yours to keep – some cost involved)
2. gives customer support
3. make sales from that 800 number
4. costs only a few cents per minute
5. the phone will ring here in Costa Rica
6. tracking of all inbound and outbound calls your own account
7. complete separate accounting

On Duty When You Are Not!

Do you know that I could help you to add an additional local phone numbers within your area code ( USA or Canada) and this for peanuts per month? And what could you do with that additional local phone number? Forward your calls to me!

Example: you have an hydroponics store and you close at 5 PM. You forward all the calls to your virtual phone number in Costa Rica …let’s say from 5 PM to 9 PM. What happens next? A real person will not only answer the phone but will also provides these services:

Again, I am not here to promote any VOIP business. The goal is just to show you that adding VOIP with a virtual assistant could greatly improve your hydroponics or aquaponics business in 2010.

How Much To Hire You?

I did not set any specific amount. I prefer to leave the doors open to discussion!

What Time Is It In Costa Rica?

In order to help you finding the best time frame for you enterprise, here are the time zones equivalent for Costa Rica:

Be Straight In Your Hiring

On one hand I know that nothing is forever, on the other hand I would really like to avoid a situation like this one: ” Let’s try the concept for a couple of months! If it not useful as expected, than we can just dump it later on! ”

Emails, chatting or VOIP numbers should be part of a rational decision to improve your business. In others words any of these services should be budgeted as your new marketing strategies in 2010.

Interview Me!

I set up an 800 number exclusively for interviews! Don’t be shy and do not hesitate to call me! It will be my pleasure to answer any questions you have in mind. Here is your toll free number for Canada and the USA:

1-877-462-3175

The best time to “catch” me is from Monday to Friday after 5 PM. On week-ends, the odds are much higher!

• you will be invited to leave a message after the fifth rings
• you can leave me your:
  • home phone number
  • work phone number
  • mobile phone number
  • all of them
• the best time frame to call you back
• your time zone
• all messages are forwarded instantly to my email account as a voval message

You can also email me at visa.mundo (at) gmail.com

Hope to hear from you soon!
