--- title: Home Services Marketing Case Study HVAC Provider description: Content marketing, a focus on local SEO, and building loyalty with an existing customer base was the key to success for this local HVAC provider who saw their organic traffic triple and leads increase significantly. --- [![WebStrategies, Inc.](https://www.geear.io/hs-fs/hubfs/New/2020/logo.png?width=240&height=30&name=logo.png) ](https://www.geear.io/) # Home & Commercial Services Case Study ## HVAC Service Provider With almost 50 years of experience in the heating and air business, this local HVAC leader has remained successful by offering superior service and value over their competitors. Although seasoned and well-established in their market, the HVAC company found their outdated online presence couldn’t keep up with competitors. As a result, they struggled with increasing online leads and maintaining contact with their customer base. ## Approach In January 2016, WebStrategies converted their website to a more modern platform, with emphasis on increasing conversion opportunities. A consistent content marketing strategy was implemented to make up for long-term inactivity. Other specialized campaigns were designed to build loyalty and gain repeat business from existing customers. Targeted email marketing campaigns prompted customers to schedule tune-ups and sign up for annual maintenance plans. This has proven highly effective, generating an average of 35 form submissions a month requesting tune-ups, and 17 phone calls to schedule this service. This campaign has saved significant time for the client as well, since they previously called each customer who was due for plan renewal. Since reviews are an essential component to home services businesses, WebStrategies developed a marketing strategy that encouraged customers to review the business. In six months, the company has received 38 five-star reviews directly from the automated email campaign. ## Results Between content marketing, local search engine optimization, targeted email campaigns and the addition of website product pages, our client has seen **organic website traffic triple in one year**, while successfully building customer loyalty and increasing online leads. In one year, organic website traffic increased 348% thanks to our efforts. Our campaign resulted in 38 new 5-star reviews for our client. ## About WebStrategies WebStrategies exists to improve the personal success of our clients, grow their businesses, and turn them into raving fans.
