Would you rent a billboard and then leave it blank? Would you spend hours with a prospect and not make plans to follow up or ask for the sale? Of course not!

So why, then, do companies do things like this?

According to Online Marketing Coach:

- 70 percent of small businesses don’t use calls-to-action on their home pages. [(Click to Tweet)](http://ctt.ec/Q7fs4)
- 72 percent of small businesses don’t have CTAs on their interior pages. They are missing out. [(Click to Tweet)](http://ctt.ec/21cLk)

Our advice: Don’t ignore these opportunities to make an offer, generate a lead or even ask for the sale. Nearly every page on your website should have at least one call-to-action. Use our [checklist](https://www.jonespr.net/call-to-action-placement-checklist) to ensure you aren’t missing any prime opportunities.
