Situation
Carlyle Investment Group did not have an online presence. Not a website, social media, or listings to be found. The owner, Kyle, said they had been in business 20 years and made it just fine without an online presence (although now he understands the importance and we have been working together over a year).
If they were to grow their business they need an online presence that would help build authority, garner trust, and ultimately get more clients and partners.
Strategy and Tactics
When coming up with a strategy we knew to invest time into social profiles that our potential clients would look for us. We started creating content for Google My Business, Facebook, and Linkedin, while still creating other social profiles for SEO reasons.
We also knew the importance of having a website with all services, certifications, testimonials and contact information. We worked to create a great example of CIG’s message, and ultimately gave a great place for potential clients and partners to come learn more about Carlyle Investment Group. This was important for the whole strategy since we were driving people from social media, emails, and other articles to the website.
