Run Your Business, Don’t Let It Run You
In order to get new pest control customers, pest control marketing is essential. However, it is easier said than done. After all, you want to focus on the daily operations of your business . You do not want to spend your day marketing and advertising. Fortunately, there are plenty of marketing agencies that can help you realize your potential. However, not all are equal and most market to all types of businesses who will pay. You should ask your marketing company what experience they have in pest control? But what are some of the most used tactics to give you new pest control leads and new business?
Digital Marketing Strategies
When you want to get new pest control customers, you absolutely need an online presence. As a consequence, there is a lot that is involved with that online presence. From creating your own website to managing your social media posts and your extended media. As a business owner, you have little time for those things. It can be tempting to go it alone with your marketing. Then you recognize there is a lot of hidden aspects you clearly did not think about. Then it gets out of hand and what you had in mind - did not come to fruition. Furthermore, proper pest control marketing is a marathon, not a sprint. It is about long term growth and not short term leads. The seeds you sow now can reap you benefits consistently in the long term and if you have no real media presence now, you cannot expect immediate success unless you have a massive ads budget.
Pest Control Website
A pest website does not necessarily need all the bells and whistles though. The most important thing is that it contains your contact information, enquiry form, and the rates you charge. However, one most important aspect of your pest company website is to build upon emotion. Your website needs to offer your potential customer a solution to their pest problems. They need to see your content when they are searching for a solution to their pest control problems such as the need for termite control, moisture control with crawl space encapsulation or bed bugs and so much more.
Local Marketing
Local search marketing is also an essential aspect of your pest control marketing. To get found locally means you need to get your company listed locally too. This means that you will be picked up on the search results and show up in local map listings.
Take into account that getting onto the first page in the search results takes quite a bit of knowledge, skill and knowing how to develop the right content. Getting on that first page is often a combination of the appropriate content creation, social media presence, visible testimonials and reviews. Therefore, your content needs to be found in places that your customers are searching for solutions. As a caveat, it does not always mean that you have to be on page 1 of google. Whilst it is nice to get there, you will see that most of the search results are taken up by advertising, after all, that’s how google makes its money.
Video Marketing
There is a whole market for video marketing at the moment. After all, video captures the attention of potential customers more than large blocks of text. Video can be used on multiple platforms, going from your website to social media and be used time and time again.
People often look for a trustworthy and recognised service when it comes to Pest Control. Using a more personal approach for your customers is not a bad idea. Video marketing can certainly help you achieve that often far cheaper than seo marketing from larger agencies. Video is remembered more easily and is far more effective.
Obviously, video marketing is not always easy, especially when you need to take video during times such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Content Amplified can deliver a solution for this as well, as we deliver personalised video for your business, even in the current pandemic climate.
