Contractor Tip: Busy season means more opportunities to generate customer reviews. Have technicians request reviews from satisfied customers, and send links to review sites in customer follow up emails. If customers take the time to leave a review, take the time to respond!

Tip of the Week: Don't wait until the end of the year to utilize your co-op or accrual funds. Your website, SEO, paid search ads and other digital channels may be eligible for reimbursement. Our team helps with brand usage requirements so you can maximize your marketing efforts.

Tip of the Week: Don't set and forget your marketing strategies. Digital marketing changes constantly. Entrust your marketing to a partner who keeps your strategies on the cutting edge and educates you as to what's changing and how to keep your campaigns optimized for success.

Tip of the Week: Growing your maintenance club program helps with customer retention, and it's one of the best ways to increase your revenue and keep job boards full during shoulder season. Ideally, your business should have 1,000 maintenance agreements per $1,000,000.

Tip of the Week: Train your install crews and service technicians on communication and customer experience. More jobs this summer means more opportunities to generate customer reviews. Train your team to talk to customers about their experience and ask them to leave a review.

Tip of the Week: Be consistent with your branding. Keeping a consistent brand style across your digital platforms (such as your website and social media), as well as on your trucks and uniforms, helps build brand awareness and trust with your company. #contractortips #marketing

Tip of the Week: Define who your ideal customer is (ie- homeowners in specific zip codes) and focus your marketing efforts on reaching the target customers you want. You'll see better conversions and can tailor your messaging and promotions to the needs of that audience.

Tip of the Week: Did you know a good goal is converting 60-65% of your precision tune-up appointments into service agreements? Your price points should be organized in a way that entices residential customers to want to sign up now rather than waiting for the next promotion.

Tip of the Week: Make a habit of reviewing your marketing results. Many contractors get stuck in a trap of “doing” but not actually tracking if what they’re doing is getting results. Check that your strategies are aligned with your goals. #contractormarketing #hvac #plumbing

Tip of the Week: Continue building your brand identity and engage with your customers, even when they don't have an immediate need for your services. Offer promotions, helpful tips or community-centric content to keep your brand top of mind.
