Start with one number

How a Medford marketing plan fits together

One report for the website, search pages, Google Ads and phone answering is the idea behind a Medford marketing plan, and Lithium Marketing builds it so calls, leads and cost per lead sit in one place. Jackson County has 190 new home builders, 94 plumbing, heating and air-conditioning contractors and 62 electrical contractors, and those trades do not find customers the same way.

Jackson County’s 221,795 people are the market they serve. A builder sells a project that starts with photos and a form; a repair trade sells an answered phone. The plan begins with whichever describes your work, then adds the rest as the calls justify them.

The Medford market

Owners, renters and two kinds of housing work

In Medford, 56.3% of occupied homes are owner-occupied, so a share of the calls you get can come from tenants or the property managers who hire for them. The site and the intake script should ask who pays for the work and route the answer to the right person.

Housing age splits the page set. 46.1% of Medford’s housing was built before 1980, and 12.3% dates from 2010 or later, so the page list should carry repair work for the older homes and remodel work for the newer ones.

Trades in Jackson County

Where the county’s trade counts are heavy, and thin

New home builders are the county’s largest trade group, with landscapers and remodelers behind them. A project sale gives a customer more to compare than a repair does, so the finished work and the reviews carry more weight than the service list.

Repair trades sit lower in the count, and that changes the plan. A plumber or an electrician wins on an answered phone and a profile that matches the service, while a builder wins on project pages and photos. One services page for all of it serves neither.

The order of work

The order we do the work in

The first job is a count, not a campaign: which calls arrive now, and where they come from.

1

Count what arrives today

We tag the website, the Google profile and any ads already running, so the first report shows the calls and leads you get now, before anything changes.

2

Fix the handoff first

If calls ring out or the site loses people on a phone, that gets fixed before more traffic is bought.

3

Build the pages your trades need

Each service you sell gets a page and a matching profile category; SEO and Google Ads then point at the ones you want more of.

4

Add the next service on results

A service joins once the report shows the calls it would bring, and one account manager keeps the work moving together.

Proof from a client

A Portland glass company’s numbers, and the work behind them

The card’s numbers belong to Town & Country Glass, a commercial glass company in Portland, and they come from three kinds of work: the website, the SEO and the Google Ads, all run by Lithium. Read together, those numbers show what one plan produces when the site, the search pages and the paid clicks are measured in the same place. The quote below is Matt Johnson’s, from his time running On-Target Landscape.

FAQ

Medford questions before you pick a channel

DJ Van Zanten

Still curious?

Call (503) 766-5964 or email [email protected].

Where should a Medford owner start: site, SEO, ads or phones?

Start with the part that is costing you calls today. A phone that rings out is a call already lost, and a site that fails on a phone loses the visits the other channels pay for. Search and ads come after those, because both send people to the site and the phone. On the first call, a co-founder looks through the tracking, the site and the listings and names the first job.

Can I hire one service without the other three?

Hire one service and it gets its own report in calls and leads. When you add a second, it joins the same tracking, so both are measured in one place.

What does working with Lithium look like from Medford?

By video call and email. Lithium is headquartered in Portland, Oregon, with a team in Portland, Bend and Seattle, working with every client by video. Your first call and your strategy calls are with a co-founder, and Allison McKenney handles the day to day as your account manager.

Who ends the agreement, and what happens at renewal?

After the first six months, either side can end it on 30 days’ notice, and renewal adds no new fixed term, so nothing locks you in for another year.

Can you work with the web person or ad manager I already have?

Often, yes, and the first call sorts out what is worth keeping. A co-founder looks at what the current site and ad account can support before anything is replaced.
