Our passion is marketing the underdogs—the “challenger brands” in advertising speak.
- Data Driven Decisions
- Virtual Sales Rep
- Online Portfolio
- Conversion Rate Optimization
- Competitive Advantage
Everything on the Web can—and should—be tracked. You can’t win the game if you don’t know the score. Capturing more accurate and granular information about the performance of each of your marketing strategies (traditional and online advertising) allows you to see opportunities and problem areas your competitors cannot. Your new marketing mantra should be: TRACK > TEST > TWEAK > REPEAT.
Too many business owners and companies (continue to) treat their website as if it were a digital brochure. Your website is NOT a brochure; it’s a virtual sales rep—an economic engine capable of catapulting your business to new levels of growth. Unlike a sales rep, your website will never ask you for a vacation or leave you for a higher-paying job. But like a sales rep, your website performs best when it is accurately measured and tracked; when it has clear goals, and when it is properly managed. Your website is your single most valuable marketing asset. Make sure you’re investing in it appropriately and that you have the right team in charge of overseeing and managing it.
The web is a real estate game. If you want to successfully market your business online, you need to cost-effectively maximize your Web “footprint.” You should start by maximizing your real estate in the search engine results because search engines are one of the few advertising channels where you can cost-effectively put your business directly in front of people with interest and intent. Every page of your website, social media site, niche blog, industry directory, etc. is another piece of real estate capable of converting visitors into leads.
To get more Web traffic and leads, you need to continually optimize your visit-to-sale conversion rate. The more effective your company’s sales process is, the more marketing options you have. If all other things are equal (average revenue per sale, gross margin, etc.), a company that converts twice as many Web visits into leads can afford to pay twice as much per click or visit. Being able to pay more per click or visit allows you to bid higher in the PPC listings and spend more on SEO—both of which ultimately result in more traffic and leads.
The most successful companies online are those that establish themselves as THE authority for what they do in their respective markets. Over an extended period of time, there is no marketing substitute capable of trumping genuine authority. With “traditional media,” big brands have a huge advantage because they can afford to “rent” access to a target audience from the few companies that control it. In the new media world of the web, this is no longer the case.
Businesses of all sizes have the opportunity to build their own audience (something you can own as opposed to renting). To build an audience, you need to create great content—content that delivers genuine value to your target market. To become an authority, you have to focus on your customers—not your competitors.
Determine Your True Marketing ROI with Advanced Analytics & Tracking
If you’re like most electricians, you don’t have the time or resources to waste on ineffective advertising strategies.
That’s why at Electric Marketing Group, we accurately measure and track each and every advertising campaign (from pay-per-click to SEO to email newsletters and more) to find out which advertising and marketing strategies work and which should be changed or eliminated.
But don’t worry!
You won’t receive loads of reports or spreadsheets to analyze!
We understand that you’re busy running your electrical company and you simply don’t have time for that.
That’s why we’ll also analyze your data and give you actionable recommendations to measurably improve your performance.
At Electric Marketing Group, our marketing analytics services include:
- Ad tracking and measurement
- Custom research and analysis
- Phone call tracking and recording
- Conversion rate optimization
- Google Analytics consulting
- Website analytics and tracking
- And more!
Accurate measuring and tracking is truly the first step in marketing your electrician business online so you can truly quantify your marketing investments.
Maximize Your Online Real Estate
Don’t think of your website as a brochure; think of it as a virtual sales rep capable of generating massive amounts of leads and sales for your electrical company, often at a fraction of the cost of traditional marketing and advertising.
With that being said, how easy is it for potential customers who aren’t familiar with your brand to find your electrician website?
Think of where your customers spend their time on the Internet.
Sure, many of them are using search engines to find your electrical services when they need them, but there’s definitely more to the story.
At the highest level, Internet marketing success is a real estate game.
Your goal should be to cost-effectively build, develop, and maintain as much real estate as you need to establish yourself as the authority in your industry.
Get Your Electrical Company on the First Page of Google
To rank well organically, you must establish and promote your local electrical company as THE authority for what you do, in the markets you do it.
Ranking well on Google, Bing, and Yahoo! requires three things:
- First, your website must be coded in a way that makes it easy for the search engines’ software to find, crawl, and categorize your website.
At Electric Marketing Group, our Web team specializes in designing websites and landing pages that are not only visually appealing, but also highly optimized for search engines—allowing your electrical company to get more traffic, leads, and sales from the Web.
2. Second, you must create Web page after Web page of unique, relevant, and remarkable content.
Our content marketing team has extensive experience writing online content (including blogs, landing pages, press releases, e-mail newsletters, e-books, and more!) for electricians—so you won’t have to write a thing (unless you want to!).
3. Third, you must promote your site to other relevant and authoritative websites and get them to link to, reference, and cite you as an authority.
Unlike other SEO companies, you’ll never have to worry about us building shady links that will get you penalized by Google!
When you hire Electric Marketing Group as your electrical contractor’s SEO company and content marketing partner, you’ll receive a dedicated account manager as well as a support team that includes an analyst, web designer/developer, and a dedicated, professional copywriter.
You’ll also receive detailed monthly reports that connect your website’s SEO performance to your electrical company’s bottom line.
Maximize Your Search Engine Real Estate With Local Search Optimization
Did you know that nearly half of total Google search queries have local intent?
In addition to improving your organic search engine listings with SEO services, if you own a local electrical company, it’s also vital that you optimize for Google’s local listings.
These seven local listings often appear before the organic listings, leading to better click-through rates for your company from potential customers.
As an award-winning SEO company, we understand that the more listings you have on the first page of search results—including local listings, organic listings, and paid listings—the better.
Our local SEO services will increase your electrical company’s visibility for geographically related searches.
Google AdWords for Electricians
When a prospective customer needs to request service from a local electrician, where do they turn?
The vast majority of Internet traffic is through search engines—like Google, Bing, and Yahoo.
Potential leads for your electric company are on Google right now searching for “outdoor lighting installation,” and “basement lighting,”
—will they find your site?
Pay-per-click (PPC) is a great way to drive more (local) visitors to your website and get more leads and sales.
In addition to local SEO and content marketing, PPC is a great way to make your company visible on the first page of search engine results.
Once you set up your ads on Google AdWords, you’ll see your advertisement within a couple of hours and have complete control over budget, copy, and placement.
When Electric Marketing Group manages your PPC account, we’ll handle everything
—from keyword discovery and ad copy creation to bidding and ad split testing.
That way, our PPC managers can continue their data-driven approach to success and you can continue expertly running your electric company.
Electrician Email Marketing
Email marketing is a perfect way to complement and enhance other types of marketing strategies such as pay-per-click, SEO, print, and TV. That’s where we can help.
Electric Marketing Group provides turnkey, “do it for me” email marketing solutions for electricians.
We handle it all—from creating a customized email template that matches your overall company brand to creating action-oriented copy and promoting your campaigns.
Our email marketing campaigns for electricians utilize custom, professionally designed email templates, remarkable conversion-oriented content, social media sharing features (Facebook, Twitter, etc.), advanced tracking and analytics tools, and website archiving features.
From formatting your email newsletter template and building an opt-in email list to crafting compelling copy and tracking your campaign results, our team of electrician email marketing specialists can help take your online marketing to the next level.
If you are an electrician with an existing customer base, opt-in email marketing campaigns are guaranteed to increase referrals, leads, and sales.
