I know you get this all the time - small business owner calls you, only for you to realize that no matter what kind of rankings or traffic you can bring - his/her site will convert less than 1% of visitors. On a good day.

But these are the same folks who expect a $20,000 website for $5,000.

Do you just turn them down or are there best practices you use?

It seems a quandery for both SEO and small business client.

IF you want to take the job, show them what's wrong and how they can fix it. If you can't afford to take it to the mechanic buy the manual.
