Questions for the sales call

- Confirm the named strategist, technical, content, link and analytics staff, monthly hours, current client load and any subcontracted work.
- Obtain a line-item proposal separating SEO, content, links, web or CRO work, paid-media management, media spend, software, term and asset ownership.
