The Holiday Blues for the home reno market.

This is a tough time of year - no doubt about it for the home renovation contractor.  Do I keep the pressure on and keep advertising or do I pull out and go again in january? Many schools of thought here. If you stay on you will reap the benefits of the consistent exposure and your january should be more fruitful. Cherish the contact that you make during this time as they may not be ready to pull the trigger now but they will come back around to you. Hold off on the price slashing but add ons tend to increase the over all value and can put some contracts in your pocket. People typically do not want to renovate in the midst of the holiday season but this can be the time to make the right impression with you marketing as they may be having more idol time and spending more time in that inadequate kitchen. Its your call on what to do but our recommendation is to stay the course and reap the rewards come the new year. FireUps® is the granite and natural stone installers sourc

Handling the bad review...

How you can handle the bad review: “They didn’t!!!,” you whimper! (Oh yeah, they did. And, sorry, putting your hand over your screen trying to hide the negative comment won’t help the situation. Nice try though.) Yep, it’s the black mark on the soul of your brand!!! A mad hindrance on the successes you have worked so hard to achieve!!!! A fly in the ointment of your social media efforts!!! “NOOOOOOOOO!!!” Okay, you get the point. So, yeah, you’ve received a negative comment. And, right now, it might seem like the end of the world, but, don’t panic, it’s not. It’s actually an opportunity for you to show off your customer servicing capabilities. (No, seriously, hear me out.) Even with the best of products, services and customer service, this was bound to happen sooner or later, because, as hard as you try, you can’t please all of the people all of the time. It’s the nature of doing business. The important thing is turning that negative feedback you received into a posi

Spark Lead Management CRM and Workflow Management

I provide a tracking application with our advertising program that enables me to track a customers ROI in real-time. We start with online typically because that is the most effective form of advertising for the customer that is looking to compete in todays market. We implement call tracking as well as track every contact method and provide a CRM where the user is able to track closing ratio for the channel as a whole as well as by individual sales rep. The next phase is to implement tracking phone number and tracking URLS in traditional advertising to monitor true ROI from traditional media. We have coined the term Cost Per Install as the true measure of success for the fabricator as we use this to track performance. CPI = is what it costs in advertising dollars to generate a sale. Once we have 1-2 months of data and this number the fabricator can typically increase or decrease the ad budget to reach the desired sales goal. My best clients are between $100 and $150
