Case Study: Plumber Wins With Social Media Management
December 23, 2021
Most small business owners know the importance of building a presence on social media. After all, social platforms, like Facebook and Instagram, are where most people are spending their time online these days, and smart marketing is about being where your prospective customers are.
However, not every industry feels tailor-made for social media management. No one wants to see a plumber unclogging a toilet or a drain, for example, and it can be difficult to figure out what to post.
But, even plumbing contractors can benefit from building an active social media presence.
