Ensure your business is easily discoverable when potential customers search for the services you offer. Focus on improving your search engine visibility, appearing at the top of search results, and understanding what your target customers search for.
Now that a potential customer has found your business, create a positive and compelling impression. Showcase your expertise, gather and highlight customer reviews, display project profiles, provide detailed information about your business, and use high-quality images to showcase your work.
Make it effortless for potential customers to engage with your business. Offer convenient ways to reach out, such as contact forms, phone calls, and clear calls-to-action. Provide lead magnets or incentives to encourage interaction and capture valuable contact information.Also, be sure to answer the phone or respond promptly your potential customers when they do reach out. If you don’t respond, they have moved onto the next company.
After engaging with potential customers, it’s crucial to remember who they are, what they do, and what they are looking for. Utilize a Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system to log and organize leads, ensuring you have the necessary information for personalized follow-up.
Once a lead is logged and engaged, focus on nurturing them into becoming satisfied customers. Keep them interested and engaged with regular blog updates, stay organized by using pipelines and opportunities to track progress, and employ drip campaigns to stay connected if they’re not ready to purchase immediately.
After successfully serving customers, ask them to leave a review to strengthen your online reputation. Continuously nurture the relationship with satisfied customers to encourage referrals and repeat business, as they can become valuable brand advocates.
To achieve marketing success, it is vital to measure, analyze, improve, and control your strategy. Collecting data and user feedback play a crucial role in this process. By tracking key metrics and gathering insights from customers, you can make informed decisions, optimize your approach, and drive business growth effectively.
I started Marketing4 out of a desire to help other business owners grow. Almost every business now requires a digital element. From marketing to accounting, businesses have gone digital, even for the one-truck solopreneurs. However, where do you start and when do you need what? There are so many platforms and software solutions, each of which claims to be the ‘industry standard.’
I began my career as a structural engineer. However, what they don’t tell you about engineering is that it can actually be quite boring. So, after almost 10 years engineering work, I moved into Business Development within the construction industry. This is where I discovered that I could combine my knowledge of construction with my desire for building relationships. I worked for several years as the Vice President of Business Development for a general contractor. I was responsible for Sales, Marketing, Estimating, and IT. Throughout my conversations, I noticed the gaps in the digital adoption of many contractor businesses.
That’s when I decided to start a company to help business owners do more of what they love. Now owners can leverage a trusted resource for managing the administrative elements of running a business.
Marketing4 is just the start. Infinite Leverage is the vision.
