Questions You Should Ask Any Agency
- How do you help us rank for high-margin projects like hardscaping versus low-margin mowing? Not all leads are equal. Does the agency segment strategy by service type and profit margin?
- How do you optimize our website gallery for mobile users who want to see 'proof of work' quickly? Your portfolio is your sales pitch. How is it being showcased for mobile conversion?
- How do you manage our local presence during the winter 'off-season' to prepare for the spring rush? Do they have a seasonal strategy to maintain visibility and prepare for peak season?
