Price
Our reputation and successful marketing generates more demand than we can handle, so it allows us to
charge premium for our services. We train our service technicians to upsell our other services. We also
have a customer loyalty program in place to reward our long-term clients with better rates and provide
coupons to first time clients. We also seek partnerships with organizations such as: homeowner
associations, insurance companies, builders and general contractors, and offer exclusive pricing options
based on quantity.
Place
The company has offices in downtown Chicago, but walk-in customers are unusual. We are physically
represented by our company vans, uniforms and warranty stickers. We consistently attend industry
trade shows, and belong to the Chicago Chamber of Commerce.
We nurture partnerships with our equipment vendors, participate in their trainings, and have
certifications, which allow us to be listed “licensed technicians” on their websites. We serve the
Chicagoland Area, which is about a 30 mile radius from our warehouse, but we do make travel
exceptions for long-term clients and bigger projects.
Our company website is the most important communication tool, and is a place where our clients learn
about our services and make initial contact. We invest a great deal of money and time to keep it
updated and useful to our audience. We plan to expand our website to include ecommerce and make
some of the package services, equipment and accessories available for purchase online. None of our
competitors are doing this at the moment, so we’ll take advantage of being pioneers in this regard.
Promotion
Most new business comes through our website and we focus all of our promotion efforts to drive more
traffic to it. Our promotional mix is as follows:
• Search engine optimization
• Paid traffic
• Social media marketing
• Content marketing
• Email marketing
Launch Success
