Digital Marketing for Construction Businesses

We seamlessly integrate web marketing, advertising, content marketing, lead generation systems and follow-up into one strategy. While each of these systems has their own function, they all work together to support your goal of getting your potential customers to take the next step with your business.

You may not need each and every service. We first assess the work your construction business needs to perform at a higher level and then offer solutions for that work.

Marketing Problems Are Often Connected

A contractor may think his or her company wants more web traffic, and yet, the company may need a website that clearly describes the contractor's work. Other companies may generate inquiries, but are slow in responding. A paid advertisement may seem like a poor use of funds if it is sending web traffic to a generic company web page.

Adding marketing channels does not help solve these problems.

When evaluating a service we consider the entire process:

  • How customers first come to know of the company.
  • The services and locations the company wishes to offer.
  • What users see once they get to the website.
  • If the claims are substantiated by the project proof.
  • How easy it is to call or request more information.
  • The response time.
  • If leads can be linked to provided estimates and/or formal project awards.

This helps us target the true limitation, rather than adding needless extra activities.

Construction Marketing Services

01

Construction SEO

Construction SEO helps contractors build visibility for relevant service, project, and location searches in the markets they actually serve.

The work is typically a combination of many of the following activities: technical work, keyword mapping, service/location pages, internal linking, content development, and search performance review.

Best for: Contractors who want to achieve sustainable organic visibility; contractors who do not want to be overly reliant upon paid advertising or shared lead sources.

02

B2B Lead Generation

Our B2B lead generation services help construction companies connect with commercial/business decision-makers like developers, property managers, facility teams, and others.

The strategy can integrate search visibility, paid search, landing pages, lead nurturing, and follow-up with your ideal customer.

Best suited for: Contractors/construction companies targeting commercial relationships, higher-value projects, or longer sales cycles.

03

Construction PPC

Our construction PPC management offers paid search campaign services to contractors for the most relevant and actively-searched projects.

We associate keywords, create ads, set location and audience targeting, utilize landing pages along with conversion and campaign analytics. Lead quality, not just clicks, and form submissions, is important in campaign decisions.

Best for: Companies intending to accelerate market entry, defend market share in competitive markets, or fulfill customer demand while their organic market position stacks up.

04

Web Design for Construction

Our Construction Web Design offers potential clients a user-centric, intelligent web design that assists our clients in establishing their position in the construction market.

Your construction web design needs speed, mobile-responsive design, navigation simplicity, and an abundance of your previous work and project examples along with client reviews with an explanation of your services and coverage.

Best for: Construction businesses who have website traffic, but complaints of poor inquiry forms or web inquiries.

Services may include Google Business Profile optimization, location-based strategy, consistent business information, local business pages, review signals, and a unified website business profile.

06

CRM and Lead Follow-Up

With our CRM and lead follow up systems, more consistent lead responses and routing are possible, along with tracking the status of customer follow-up.

Depending on business specifics, the system may include new contact notifications plus assignment, reminders, call-back follow-up, or contact status alerts.

Best for: Companies cite insufficient follow-up as lost opportunities despite customer web inquiries.

07

Social Media Marketing

Our social media marketing services use project work, customer education and company activity to generate exposure and trust for construction businesses.

Social media can generate exposure, support recruiting, strengthen customer confidence and help service the company's marketing plan. It should be integrated as part of the overall integrated marketing plan as opposed to a stand-alone initiative.

Best suited for: Construction firms that have visible work, regular project activity and/or need to stay front-and-center for a longer sales process.

08

Content Marketing

Our construction content-marketing services use the questions customers ask prior to contacting a contractor.

Best suited for: Construction firms that require better topical authority, clearer customer education or more support for SEO exposure and sales efforts.

09

Frequently Asked Questions

What construction marketing services do you provide?

We provide construction SEO services, B2B lead generation services, pay per click services, web design services, local SEO services, CRM and lead follow-up services, social media marketing services, content marketing services, and construction branding services.

Do I need all of these services?

No. Your company may need one focused service or a connected group of services. The recommendation depends on your current marketing, website, target projects, locations, and lead following services.

How do I know which service to start with?

Start with what is most constraining to your business. If people cannot find the company, we recommend SEO or PPC services. If traffic does not convert, we recommend web services. If inquiries are not handled consistently, lead follow-up is most important.

What is your pricing structure?

Pricing depends on the type of services, website needs, geographic coverage, and level of advertising. You should have all details outlined in the proposal so you know what to expect.

Do ad spending costs get bundled with PPC management?

PPC and the costs associated with the advertising campaign should be broken out separately. Knowing how much goes to the vendor for campaign management and what you spend on ads is important.

How quickly will we see results?

Most paid ads will give you some visibility and results, but how well the results will meet your needs may vary (as can the number of leads). SEO see slower results and can take a few months. Other website improvements or follow up changes can lead to results.

Can you guarantee leads or rankings?

No reputable agency will guarantee results for everything. We will execute everything we have agreed on and create a benchmark and a framework to optimize the strategy, but we can't guarantee specific results.

Do you need a new website?

We will conduct an evaluation of your website before we recommend any changes. We try to wait on a complete rebuild until the website needs focus and improvement.

Can you provide only one aspect of marketing?

Yes, as long as that one element does not rely on other marketing services.

Can you work with our marketing team?

Yes, as long as there is not duplication of efforts or oversights in responsibilities.

Do you work with small construction companies?

Fit depends on capacity, target projects, lead handling and investment readiness. An established company with a focused growth plan may be a good fit even if it doesn't have a large internal marketing team.

Do you work with commercial and residential contractors?

Yes, however marketing approaches differ. Residential campaigns may target homeowners and local service searches. B2B campaigns may target developers, property managers, facilities and business decision makers.

What makes a construction lead qualified?

Qualification varies by company. It may be the requested service, project, location, scope, budget, schedule and decision making authority.

Can you improve lead quality?

Marketing does not have control over all inquiries, but a more targeted approach, along with service pages, qualification questions and setting location, may help lower irrelevant leads and improve project fit.

What happens if we already get leads and do not close them?

We can look at the path from advertising and landing pages to the time of the response and qualification as well as the follow-up. The problem may be with targeting, expectations of the website, sales, or a combination of these.

Who are you assigning the website and marketing assets to?

Ownership and access must be outlined in the agreement. We must know which assets and accounts we are working with prior to commencing work.

What do you expect from our team?

We might need details about your service offerings, preferred jobs, job locations, target customers, your sales process, website, accounts, pictures of job sites, and the results of marketing efforts. The swift and accurate provision of this information enables marketing efforts to reflect the business.

What should we expect during the introductory conversation?

We discuss your business challenges and problems, along with the jobs you are targeting. We discuss the marketing you are currently implementing and the lead flow challenges you are facing. If we think there is a good fit, the next step would be a thorough analysis and the presentation of a formal proposal.

Identifying the Initial Challenge

You do not have to decide on a service before reaching out to us.

You simply need to describe the type of work you expect, where you want your business to grow to, and the challenges you are facing with your current marketing. We help you determine the first challenge you might need to address with your customers.
