Besides word of mouth, which of these marketing models has brought you the most success?
I guess I can't vote then.Besides word of mouth,........
I'm pretty sure you just made the naughty list.Hand out business cards in anger management class
Post up your website link... I'm interested to see that.SEO does not work anymore for smaller contractors. Why? Because EVERYONE is doing it. I have not gotten 1 call from my SEO in recent months and I'm on the bottom of the first page of Google. It does work, though, in general. Who shows up on the top page of Google? Home Advisor. I know of many contractors that are successful because of Home Advisor, yet 5 years ago, most of the contractors that I knew had no idea what Home Advisor was.
If you show up anywhere from 2 - 9 times in one search, people become interested...:thumbsup:
I've done that in quite a few search terms.
That's great Todd! :thumbup:Far from it at this point. Closed another one this afternoon from a google search/web inquiry.
In the initial contact the homeowner said she was dealing with Lowes for her first quote but they couldnt perform all the services she wanted. After speaking with her, she claimed that she didn't want to waste my time... I went on a limb and tried something new so I had her send me pictures and I gave her a general price of starting at $6,500.
Went today and wrote a contract for $8,700... (thanks Google search...) :clap:
SEO may be a waste of time if you're investing low, but if you can get your company on the top five first page of google you'll be getting calls. It's hard to compete with big lead companies such as homeadvisor, networkx, towncontractors, etc... it's why buying good leads may be the best option. I have been successful with www.towncontractors.com buying exclusive painting leads in my area.Yes seo is a waste of time.
