First and foremost, why TRUST MATTERS Marketing?
As a contractor or a home service provider, your marketing is a first impression of your business and your reputation. In an infinite number of ways on a daily basis, it influences whether an unknown number of potential, or even repeat customers will engage with you or never have anything to do with you. A lot rides on the effectiveness of your marketing. A lot!
Applying smart logic to your marketing is similar in many ways to a home's foundation. It provides the groundwork from where you build the rest of your business.
Integrating smart strategies like the three you see above will serve as your support walls. They will keep you strong and upright. Applying them effectively will ensure your business's stability, growth and success. Smart logic will be the reason you will create more meaningful customer relationships faster, more predictably, and many longer lasting!
The logic? Because you work in a perpetual people business, unarguably, your logic needs to start with a deep and clear understanding of CONSUMER TRUST and the proven, larger than life influence it has over your business’s success.
Even Forbes knows a business needs a high level of trust from their customers in order to succeed! According to Forbes, 81% of customers
looking for services like yours, will never hire you unless you earn their trust first! Most smart business owners understand the significance
behind this percentage and take deliberate steps to try and stay ahead of it. Ideally, everyone should be doing that!
We agree with Forbes! Our experience working with customers (ones who look for services like yours!) since 2004 has consistently confirmed
the same thing! That a business's reputation influences their customers more than everything else they have. Also, unarguably, this always
begins with trust!
Which is why the products, services and training The Service Guide provides to our service provider network include a focus on more than just
your team's challenges and goals. They incorporate the concept of TRUST in the strategizing and thought processing... because uncompromisingly, Trust Matters!
Why else should TRUST be a critical focal point in creating your strongest marketing?
As we all have witnessed marketing change over decades, the only thing that has never changed is the need consumers have to trust what they purchase and who they hire.
This need to trust has never wavered and never will. It is innate in all human beings.
So, understanding ways you can earn and nurture trust with customers helps you connect and relate with them. Those connections and relations will be what generates satisfaction, confidence, and loyalty. All that leads to trust.
Earning and nurturing trust also occurs by minimizing uncertainty, vulnerability and
risk-taking for your customers, more ways that reinforce trust.
Your reality? Regardless of everything else your business has going for you, without clear and deliberate strategizing around TRUST, much of the "other stuff" doesn't resonate with customers.
It never has and it's not likely it will somehow magically start to. As a business owner, unless you embrace this truth, you will rarely end up in a better place than where you likely are right now!
So, that is why we choose not to waver from our TRUST MATTERS Marketing approach, and neither should YOU!
Think like your customers!
When you want to get the furthest the fastest, (if you aren't already!) the smartest thing you can do is to start thinking like your customers!
When you adopt the critical mindset that marketing and the psychology of the consumer are practically one in the same, you will be well on your way to creating some of the smartest strategizing that will produce some of your best leads!
To begin with, note Consumer Psychology Fact #1: Customers will start to trust you when they perceive you know what you are talking about.
When you provide proof of your knowledge and expertise to interested or inquiring customers, it becomes one of the strongest motivators to choose YOUR BUSINESS you can give them.
One of the most effective quality lead generating strategies is to EDUCATE first and naturally watch TRUST follow right behind.
Our RESIDENT EXPERT PROGRAM gives you a perfect platform to provide your expertise and knowledge to local people who need answers and solutions YOU
can give them!
Businesses that adopt this strategy routinely experience the epitome of what it means to CONNECT AND CONVERT!
