Content Creation & Blogging: For the audience we are trying to reach, we try to stay away from instructional “how-tos” or “do-it-yourself” articles and focus more on general, educational tips for both blogs and offers. For example: “4 Tips for Planning Your Dream Kitchen,” “When is it the right time to remodel?,” and “3 Reasons Not to Skimp on Your Commercial Remodeling.”
The goal of the content was to educate prospects about construction and remodeling best practices so that they will be better equipped to make informed decisions during their project and simultaneously showcase the team’s expertise. Topics that accomplish this include: “Basement Finishing Ideas: Read this Before Your Basement Remodel,” “How to Effectively Budget for Your Commercial Remodel,” and “Preparing for Life Transitions: Everything You Need to Know About In-Law Apartments.”
SEO: The new website and blogs were optimized for keywords that focused on
“remodeling,” “new construction,” “kitchen remodeling,”, and “bathroom remodeling,” as well as the more location specific keywords “CT remodeling,” “Connecticut remodeling,” “CT commercial construction,” and “CT residential construction.”
Location specific landing pages were also created and optimized for the counties and towns within their service area.
Social Media: We use social media not only as another outlet to share our blog articles and offers, but to drive traffic back to the Litchfield website, engage our prospects and existing clients in conversation, and encourage “recommendations” and “reviews.”
Email Marketing was also an area of focus. Creating effective lead nurturing campaigns helped move top of the funnel leads down the funnel into sales opportunities.
