Finding the right prospects, not random ones
Old bought-in lists, cold calls without knowing anything about the business. Each prospect needs ten minutes of research on maps, website and social media before they’re worth a call.
You sell websites, e-commerce, SEO, social media and ad campaigns to shops and small businesses. Ugo finds the businesses in the area, shows you how their website looks on a phone, reads what’s on it and drafts the quote from the agency’s template.
A web agency sales rep sells a service the client often doesn’t know they want. The restaurant only has a social media page, the builder has a ten-year-old website that’s unreadable on a phone, the shop would like to sell online but doesn’t know where to start. Your job is to find them, understand what’s missing and explain it simply.
That’s exactly where Ugo helps. With Maps it searches for businesses of a given type in an area, with address, phone, website and ratings. With Website previews it sends you an image of the site as a customer sees it on a phone or a computer. With Company websites it reads the pages and tells you what’s there and what’s missing: opening hours, services, prices, contact details.
Then there’s the less fun part: quotes, follow-ups, appointments, updates to the agency’s CRM. Ugo fills in the quote template with the client’s details, reminds you who hasn’t replied and writes the emails from your inbox. You spend the time you save where it counts: in front of the owner, explaining why a good website brings them customers. Anything that goes out or changes only happens after your “Confirm”.
Selling digital services takes a lot of preparation before the first contact.
Old bought-in lists, cold calls without knowing anything about the business. Each prospect needs ten minutes of research on maps, website and social media before they’re worth a call.
Saying “your website is out of date” convinces nobody. You need to show how it looks on a phone, what’s missing compared with local competitors, where a potential customer gets lost.
Brochure site, e-commerce, social media management, campaigns: every proposal mixes different packages. Copying and pasting from the last quote leads to mistakes in names, prices and services.
The owner needs to “think about it”, talk to their partner or accountant, wait until the busy season is over. Without timely follow-up, the quote sinks to the bottom of the inbox.
From prospect research to the signed quote.
Ask Ugo for businesses of a certain type in a town: it replies with up to ten results per search, with address, phone, website and ratings. You see straight away who has no website or few reviews.

Show me the Dales Dental Centre website on a phone and tell me what’s missing
Here’s an image of the site as it looks on a smartphone. I’ve read the pages: services and address are there, but opening hours, online booking and a team page are missing. The phone number is only in the footer.
The agency has a quote template on Google Drive with {{client}}, {{services}} and {{amount}}. Ugo copies it, fills it in and saves it in the client’s folder, ready to read through and send.

Pick a sector and an area, look for businesses with no website or an outdated one, and turn up with something concrete to show. Low or missing reviews are another good sign. Ugo searches businesses by type and area with website and ratings and shows you their site on a phone, so you go into the first call prepared.
Break it down: design, development, content, e-commerce if needed, hosting and maintenance, recurring services like SEO and social media. State timescales, what’s included and what isn’t. A template with placeholders avoids mistakes. Ugo fills in the agency’s template on Google Drive or Word with the client’s details and saves it in their folder.
No, for technical metrics like speed or rankings you need dedicated SEO tools. Ugo reads the text on the pages and tells you what they contain and what’s missing, such as opening hours, services or contact details, and shows you an image of the site on a phone and a computer. For a first sales visit, that’s often what you need.
Each search returns up to ten businesses, with address, phone, website and ratings. The team has a daily search limit, designed for everyday sales work rather than downloading lists. Ugo doesn’t scrape: it uses map data, one search at a time.
