As a pest control company owner, manager, or marketing director, you know that maintaining a competitive edge means constantly coming up with new and creative ways to find and keep new customers. You need to get your company's name in front of the people and businesses that need your pest control services, then find a way to convert them into recurring customers.
Let's think about a real-world situation. Say you own Bug Off Pest Control, a small but mighty residential and commercial pest control provider in Charlotte. You may have the best treatments and most knowledgeable techs in the county, but how will homeowners and business owners find you when creepy crawlies start invading their properties? How will you stand out from competitors like your smaller competition or national chains like Terminix and Orkin? This is where strategic digital marketing comes in.
It's well established that when used strategically, the internet can rapidly grow a pest control company's customer base. While printed flyers, door hangers, and traditional advertising have their place for branding purposes, nothing compares with showing up high in the search engine results when a prospect asks, "How do I get rid of spiders?" or "What's the best roach control near me?"
You want your pest control company to dominate the first page of Google when potential customers in your service area start hunting for pest solutions online. The best approach to search engine domination is through search engine optimization (SEO), pay-per-click (PPC) advertising, local service ads (LSAs), or a combination of all three.
This post offers an in-depth analysis of SEO versus PPC to help growing pest control businesses in North Carolina and beyond improve lead generation and boost growth.
