Getting Customers (The Simple, Non-Pushy Way)
One question, one link, and a simple voucher system. Add it to your normal repair workflow and earn repeat commissions when customers renew.
The one question that starts everything
When you’ve finished a repair and the customer is happy, ask:
If they say “I don’t” — perfect. If they say “external drive” — remind them drives get dropped, lost, stolen, or fail. Cloud backup is automatic whenever the device is on.
The goal: help the customer protect their data — and get paid again when they renew.
- Ask the question.
- Hand them a voucher (or text them your link).
- They sign up — you get credited. Renewals track to you too.
Quick wins that increase conversions
These are practical “add-ons” that make customers far more likely to take action — without sounding salesy.
🔗 1) Give them your personal link
After the question, give them your link (or hand them a voucher). Your username shows here: adnet.
Right after you’ve fixed their device — when trust is highest.
Tip: replace adnet with your own GotBackUp USERNAME.
💬 2) Use a simple follow-up message
Most people don’t act instantly. A quick follow-up boosts sign-ups.
“Hi! Here’s that backup link I mentioned — it’s an easy way to protect your photos and files.
GBDrive.com/adnet
If you want to try it first:
TakeAFreeTrial.com/adnet”
Send this the same day while the repair is fresh in their mind.
🎟️ 3) Give them something physical (higher conversion) ▾
A simple “thank you for using us” note or voucher in the bag increases take-up massively.
- Thank you card (best choice)
- Invoice footer (“Backup your data: GBDrive.com/yourname”)
- Packing note / “collection slip”
- Business card (with a short URL)
- QR code for walk-in customers
If you do one thing: use vouchers. It feels normal (like other big voucher offers in the UK).
📱 Bonus: Get them set up before they leave (QR voucher) ▾
If they already have their phone out, let them scan the QR code on your voucher and register there and then. Once home, they can log in and set up all devices.
- Print a QR code that links to GBDrive.com/adnet
- Ask them to scan it on their phone
- They register in under a minute
Some shops add a small “thank you” for doing it on the spot:
- £10 off today’s repair
- A low-value freebie (USB stick, screen wipe, charging cable)
This isn’t a “sales discount” — it’s a thank-you for protecting their data properly. Small incentives often pay for themselves many times over through repeat commissions.
Use: Print Vouchers to generate QR vouchers quickly.
⭐ 4) Get more “free” leads from your Google listing ▾
You don’t need ads to start — most repair work comes from local Google searches.
- Add a line to your Google Business Profile: “Ask about backup & data protection”.
- Add one photo of a repaired device + a short caption mentioning backup.
📸 5) Post your repairs on social media ▾
Each happy customer is a marketing opportunity. Post a photo of your latest repair and add:
🤝 6) Referrals & local partnerships ▾
Good local partners:
- Accountants / bookkeepers (client data)
- Photographers (photo backups)
- Estate agents (docs + phones)
- Local business groups / Facebook groups
Quick note: this works best when you’re using the backup yourself — customers trust “I use it too.”
