The 10-Minute Marketing Edge for Home Services Businesses

We know how busy you are running your home services business. With every job, client request, and unexpected call, there’s barely time to think about growth strategies. But here’s the good news: just 10 minutes a week could make a difference in attracting more clients and keeping the competition at bay. This week’s newsletter gives you quick, effective actions that fit into your schedule and provide real results.

Tip #1: Supercharge Your Google Business Profile

Did you know that 84% of consumers trust online reviews as much as personal recommendations? For home services businesses, having an updated Google Business Profile builds credibility and keeps you top-of-mind for local clients. Spend just a few minutes this week to:

  • Upload recent photos of your work to showcase your skills

  • Double-check your contact info and business hours

  • Respond to recent reviews with a personal touch (even a quick “Thank you!” works wonders)

Small updates can have a big impact on your local visibility and help new clients feel confident in choosing you.

Tip #2: Send a Simple “Check-In” to Recent Clients

A quick follow-up can lead to more referrals and repeat clients. Studies show that customers who receive a check-in email are 42% more likely to return. Whether it’s thanking them for their business, asking for feedback, or offering a small incentive on their next service, a simple email can make a lasting impression.

Tip #3: Track What Your Competitors Are Doing

The home services industry is competitive—yet many companies miss opportunities to improve their online presence. Research shows that demand for home services has surged by 19% in the last three years. To stay ahead, take a few minutes to:

  • Search your local competitors online to see what they’re posting

  • Take note of any popular promotions or services that might work for your business

  • Brainstorm a few unique ways to set yourself apart (think seasonal offers or loyalty discounts)
