Penguin Air, Plumbing & Electrical

Penguin Air, Plumbing & Electrical
Problem

A prominent Nexstar member servicing the Phoenix Valley, Penguin Air, Plumbing & Electrical first came to Blue Corona in 2019 in search of a new digital marketing partner. A once well-established brand in the Valley community, Penguin was quickly losing rankings, visibility, and customers to competitors that outranked and outperformed them on search engines. Historically, Penguin grew top-line revenue nearly 40% each year until 2019. Owners Wade and Will were ready to make the leap from the “biggest small guy” in the Valley to big-time players.

Solutions

A digital competitive analysis of Penguin’s online presence revealed multiple areas of opportunity across their website, organic search presence (SEO) and paid media (PPC, specifically).

Franchise Email Marketing Is Cost-Effective

Email marketing is a highly cost-effective way to grow your franchise locations—it has an average ROI of 4,400%! At Blue Corona, we craft email marketing campaigns for franchises utilizing opt-in email marketing to drive more revenue and maximize ROI from your campaigns.

What Is Opt-In Email Marketing?

Opt-in email marketing is the process of automating your email campaigns to customers, prospects and leads, referral partners, vendors, etc. who choose to receive them. Why is this important? Users who opt-in voluntarily sign up to receive emails from your franchise and are more likely to open and engage with the email campaign than unsolicited messages. Because of this, opt-in email marketing is far more effective at getting you the leads and sales you’re looking for as a franchise owner or marketing manager for several franchise locations.
