Make Your Business Grow With The New Google Listings 3-Pack
Why is Google Listings 3-Pack relevant to my Home Inspection business? The Google 3-Pack is a type of search result that appears at the top of certain Google search results under the ads but above the "normal" results. It shows a map with multiple pointers indicating the location of nearby companies who meet the need expressed in the search query. It's called the 3-Pack because Google shows the three most appropriate businesses. With review information and contact details, alongside their web links and directions to their location. Eagle-eyed Googlers may have noticed that there used to be 7 map pack listings. But it's recently been reduced to 3, making placement there a little more competitive. Why Showing up in the Local 3-Pack is an advantage? It gets you in front of tho...Read More

Do You Love Google Or Hate Them?
Google My Business can be very helpful in marketing your home inspection firm. It is a one-stop listing that displays your reviews, website address, photographs, and much more and Google is where the searchers are. Ninety-two percent of mobile searchers and sixty-six percent of desktop search occurs on Google. That's huge! However, at The Savvy Inspector, we have a love-hate relationship with Google in general and Google My Business too. Here's why. GMB is a very powerful tool in local marketing, but there are fewer Google My Business slots available today than ever before. Google My Business offers three slots that show up in search and guess what, the one at the top can/is a paid advertisement. Ouch! Here's another issue. Recent information has surfaced that "proximity" will be the way l...Read More
Three Reasons To Have A Home Inspection Website That Converts
The first reason to have a home inspection website that converts visitors into paying customers is so that you can get home inspections directly from the public. A lot of inspectors are marketing strictly to real estate agents and overlook the opportunities to go to the public. Going to the public is the direction that everybody needs to be heading in because there are fewer and fewer agents in the real estate offices (except Keller Williams Offices). Also, millennials are looking online for everything, including home inspectors and that's going to continue. It's essential that you have an effective online presence. It's shocking, the number of inspectors who don't, or what they do have online is stagnant and not helpful to online shoppers. The second reason you need a website that convert...Read More
Go Direct To The Public To Bulletproof Your HI Business
I think that you would agree with this statement… Even with the inventory shortage and rising mortgage rates there will always be people who are going to buy a home, now the numbers may be less but there will still be buyers. Heck, I bought a home when mortgage interest rates were 17% and so did many others. ;-( But here's the problem. You may be relying heavily on real estate agents for referrals right now and many of those agents are non-top producers. Non-top producers always have fewer sales when the real estate market is somewhat troubled. So in order to Bulletproof Your Business against the inventory shortage and increasing mortgage interest rates you need to spend more of your marketing efforts going direct to the public for business. In the next few posts, I'm going to share ...Read More
