Promoting an Electrical Business.

Zoomup
Electricians who run a business need to promote the business. To get work the business has to advertise to get customers. So, just what form should the advertising (marketing) take? This is an example of very effective advertising that people will come across whilst surfing the net. It is interesting, thought provoking and informative. Perhaps we can learn from its techniques.

    Whenever I want a good laugh I hang around my local wholesalers and wait for the local Mr Electric van to come in.  Judging by what he tries to order over the counter his electrical knowledge is, to be kind, poor.  I'd be embarrassed to be heard ordering such stuff and asking counter staff for advice.  Wisely they don't offer any.  Such franchises are just a vehicle for someone else in an office to make more money than you ever will as a franchisee and without the hassle. The website is just full of hot air.


    My business is promoted very effectively, and at no cost to me, by my customers recommending me.  I have never advertised - I've never been bad enough to need to.
