Some of the Benefits of Franchise Development Marketing with IDS:
HOW WE ATTRACT YOUR CLIENTS
Franchise Website Development
Every business needs an effective and attractive website design – getting one shouldn't be a complicated task. At IDS, we provide a complete solution. It starts with a sound strategy, followed by a beautiful design and a talented development team that brings your new website to life.
Content, Branding, and Personas
Quality content on your website – information that prospective and current clients will find useful and engaging – is a game-changer. When visitors navigate your site, it's analogous to them walking into a store. If you have good site content, it’s the same as having shelves stocked full of inventory. Conversely, a website that lacks relevant and engaging information is like a store that has little or nothing to sell.
Search Engine Optimization
Search engines like Google, Yahoo, and Bing all want to deliver the most up-to-date and relevant information to anyone searching the web. Some factors that affect your ranking include website speed, user behavior, URL structure, links, on-site text, social media signals, and an ever-changing list of other factors. Google, for instance, changes its algorithms up to 40 times a month, so it takes a true SEO professional to manage your website.
Paid Digital Advertising
Pay-per-click is a key part of any inbound marketing strategy. When paid advertising is combined with SEO, you get more impressions and a higher click-through rate, which improves conversions. Businesses that advertise their products and services to consumers already know that SEM, paid social graphics, and display ads are a great way to find your ideal client.
Social Media Marketing
A company's online impression is made up of more than its website. Social media and reviews on independent sites can make a huge difference to potential customers, who see these as authentic representations of a brand. At IDS, we help our clients manage their social media and online reputations in order to present their best, most authentic selves to potential customers. Social media and reputation management solutions complete your business's online picture.
Analytics and Strategy
If you come to us with a website already in place, we’ll conduct web data analytics to see which pages people are visiting most frequently and which keywords got them there. If some of the things you’re already doing are working, we’ll want to preserve those elements as we build your new content. Similarly, we’ll know not to replicate the things that aren’t working. We also offer monthly keyword, lead generation, web analytics, and paid advertising reports.
On-Location Video Production
IDS will produce custom videos that best represent your business, product, or service. We will also create a custom YouTube Channel for your company and distribute that video content across social channels like Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Google+. Search engines also love video, and will often present them higher in search rankings than they would your static website pages.
Local Marketing
If your local business isn’t showing up in the local pack of a Google search, you are basically invisible! That’s why your business needs local search engine optimization from an experienced team. At IDS, we have over 30 years of experience helping local businesses across the country. We know what works and what doesn’t. We also keep up with the latest trends and “Google approved” ways of positioning your business on the first page of a Google search!
Retargeting Ads: An Essential Part of Digital Marketing
An essential part of the inbound philosophy is finding your prospects where they spend their time online. Retargeting ads are a way to ensure that your ads are seen by the people who want to see them.
