During our HarperMees team meeting on Monday, Craig received a call from a woman wanting to rent 4 VIP portable restrooms. He handed the phone to me.

Don’t jump to the conclusion that this team of Danville – San Ramon real estate agents are moonlighting in the portable toilet business. If you recall, Hanson & Fitch Temporary Site Services is one of the Bay Area businesses that I consult with on Internet marketing.

I’ve written a couple of posts on Todd Fitch, the real Bay Area portable toilet guy, here and here. Because of those posts, when you Google portable toilets for many of the communities in the Bay Area, our site comes up #1 on Google.

The woman on the phone found our site and apparently didn’t read the whole article as she was calling us to deliver 4 of Todd’s temporary restrooms!

I gave her the web address for Hanson & Fitch. Todd emailed me within 10 minutes saying they got the job. Last week Todd had his first client book via their iPhone using the Internet. He tells me they are now receiving about 6 calls a day as a result of our Internet marketing consulting. So much business, in fact, that he has had to order another 100 toilets!

If you need portable toilets or temporary fencing, please contact Hanson & Fitch. Leave the real estate transactions to us and the toilets to them!

As I have noted before, I occasionally take on a client or two for Internet Marketing and PR. I was talking to Todd Fitch today, one such client, and he told me his phone is ringing off the hook since we started helping him build his online presence.

Todd is the owner of Hanson & Fitch, Temporary Site Services. We have written about Todd and his temporary fencing and portable toilets before.

Temporary fencing and portable toilets is just one of many businesses that can benefit from proper Internet marketing. I see too many businesses losing business because they feel their Internet presence is something they can get around to later than sooner.

The neat thing about talking to Todd is that the full impact of what we are doing won’t hit for another three months or so. My suggestion, add another phone line or two and at least one more person to answer the calls!
