Will’s Notes
Where do your best customers live? I bet you can name the top 3-5 neighborhoods in your market right now. Here’s how to dominate those specific areas instead of just marketing to your whole city.
Nextdoor is the new welcome wagon. People ask for home service recommendations there every single day. “Does anyone know a good window treatment company?” If you don’t have a presence there, your competitor does.
Run “Local Deals” on Nextdoor — offer a small discount to a specific neighborhood. It’s a great way to get your foot in the door and build a cluster of customers in one area. When three houses on the same street have your shutters, the neighbors notice.
But don’t just sell. Be a helpful neighbor. Answer questions about window treatments, share tips about energy efficiency, engage with community conversations. Build a reputation as the local expert, not just another advertiser.
Our Growth Program includes Nextdoor ad management. We can help you target specific zip codes and even individual neighborhoods. Combined with our hyper-local Google Ads strategy, it creates a powerful “surround sound” effect in your best markets.
