What Do Telecommunications And SEO Have In Common?
Author : Jim C Green
Telarus Networks, Inc. was founded in May 2002 in Huntington Beach, California based on SEO core skills. Its founders, Adam Edwards and Patrick Oborn started as a home-based business, focused on internet T1 service. Leveraging Patrick’s SEO expertise, Telarus, has developed to become the Top Master Agency in the trade; selected by the Telecommunications Association in 2008 and 2009. We highlight in this article, Telarus Inc. as a case study to make evident the effectiveness of core SEO skills in business success.
I have worked first-hand with Telarus, which powers my own online telecommunications services brokerage, since 2003 and had previously known Patrick since 1999 through the Cognigen Networks Agency. Patrick, as Cognigen webmaster, had learned skills in developing replicated agent websites and mastered search engine optimization as a student of Cognigen’s top agent, Joe Kennedy.
Cognigen Networks was well known as a long-distance carrier shopping system and Patrick developed many websites able to attract customers through his internet marketing expertise. Patrick’s SEO skills were obvious from his earlier Cognigen days. He shared much of his knowledge with Cognigen agents in training seminars. Those that listened and followed his instruction literally began to dominate the search engines for mostly residential telecommunications-related services such as calling cards, long distance, cellular plans, etc.
As the demand for Cognigen’s core long distance products diminished, Patrick made a decision to change his focus to business telecommunications services, initially focusing on T1 and DS3. This is where the Telarus story begins.
By using his existing skills and his residual earnings streams from Cognigen, Patrick and Adam have expanded their business model to expand well beyond using just internet marketing as a basis for their internet T1 service business. How has this been accomplished?
By envisioning a sales process divided into 1) Marketing and 2) Follow-up/Consulting, Telarus created, now patented, “Geoquote” software that allowed this process to become reality. Telarus created a system which began to produce hundred of new T1 service internet prospects online each day through a association of agent-replicated and hand-crafted web properties. Lead Generators, by using as bait, the world’s first and only real-time T1 quote tool, appeal to Internet "searchers" using Google, Yahoo and Bing. Once the bait is taken, e.g., a real time estimate is delivered to an online “shopper,” highly-trained telecommunications sales agents receive the lead and engage in follow-up to consult with decision maker to close the deal. Having seen the pricing, under-qualified prospects will remove themselves from the system after learning that a T1 line is $350 – $1000/month, a service price many businesses and individuals can’t afford to pay. This saves innumerable hours to boost productivity and allows T1 service sales agents to focus their time on customers who are actually ready to purchase service.
After three years of operations in California, Telarus moved to Draper, Utah in 2004. Once here, many new employees were hired to help take care of the intricate technology that powers GeoQuote and the agent back offices, as well as agent sales support personnel that assist sales agents/brokers in their day to day sales activities. With these new employees, Telarus has been able to recruit many top Master Agents, individual consultants, network integrators, and value-added resellers (VARs) into the “family”. In 2006 Telarus agents produced over $1,600,000 in new carrier business. Internet marketing and core SEO skills remain central to this highly successful telecommunications venture.
