Show Notes

In this week's episode, we'll be talking about content marketing for contractors. Why should you care? Because content marketing is a time investment that will attract qualified leads and build brand trust.

There are more ways to get your content on google than ever before, these specifically apply to contractors: 

  • Local Business Knowledge Panel Card (GBP)
  • Plain text organic
  • PAA (FAQ’s)
  • Video rich results 
  • Featured snippet (google displays a snippet of content from one of the top-ranking organic results in the SERP)
  • Review snippets 
  • Logo in knowledge panel

Content marketing is content that should stimulate interest from buyers and position YOU as an expert in your field. This includes:

  1. Blogs
  2. Email marketing
  3. Downloadables (eBooks, How To’s etc)
  4. Video (long and short)
  5. Website content 
  6. Social media posts
