The Four Pillars of Marketing – Tony Mercury [RR 703]

Key Talking Points

  • “Top Internet Marketing Trends for your Repair Shop”
  • OMNI channel marketing- be everywhere at all times
  • Producing video content- It’s easier than you think, everyone has a cell phone to use, you don’t need a high budget. 
  • Contact hack for blogs- start typing in google and google will show what people are searching for. The goal is to get someone in the local market to find the blog.
  • Grassroots marketing- birthdays, customers, 
  • Four pillars of marketing: website (70% of searches are mobile), SEO, paid search, social media 
  • Call to action on a website- click to call, click to schedule, click to ready google reviews, live chat
  • How are people interacting? How do your customers want to interact? Are you future thinking?
  • Update your website every 18-24 months to keep it fresh- research other websites in and outside of the industry. Ask others for their opinion
