Challenge
Mike, the owner of Arizona-based Scottsdale Air Heating & Cooling, approached us because he was frustrated by the results of his current lead generation efforts.
He had been investing for several years into SEO and Google Adwords lead generation campaigns that were built and run by big box agencies.
Mike had expected much better results based on the amount of money he had invested in these campaigns.
The company’s promises of high-quality traffic and leads never came to fruition and felt that his questions and needs weren’t addressed in a timely manner.
So, Mike reached out to our team for a more effective lead generation campaign from a company who would tailor their efforts to his industry and work with him every step of the way.
Our strategy call with Mike allowed us to:
- Learn more about his online marketing experience
- Conduct a thorough investigation into Scottsdale Air’s online presence
- Work with Mike to create a long-term plan to build an Unstoppable Lead Generation Machine
Our overarching goal was to consistently attract targeted, profitable leads from the Internet.
In order to make this goal a reality for Scottsdale Air, our online marketing services company established the following sub-goals and objectives:
- Increase targeted traffic from the major search engines like Google, Bing, and Yahoo
- Increase website conversion rates for more phone leads and contact requests
- Establish email marketing strategy to help build stronger relationships with customers, prospects, and referral partners
- Establish social media marketing campaigns
- Enhance overall user experience for website visitors on any device with a responsive website
- Establish a rock-solid digital footprint
- Increase the number of customers leaving positive online reviews
- Turn Scottsdale Air into the trusted, go-to HVAC company in their local market
Solution
Before executing and planning our strategy, we performed a full site audit to help improve our clients website and here’s what we’ve come up with…
Website Development
First, we addressed the website layout and design. Our web design team focused on creating a website that would make it easy for site visitors to convert into actual leads.
We based our updates on proven optimization methods and SEO best practices.
The result was a more user-friendly, responsive design and layout specifically formulated to enhance site engagement and attract more qualified business leads.
Email Marketing
Secondly, we wanted website visitors to sign up for the company’s exclusive monthly eNewsletter.
Those sign-ups would convert into customers more often because they’d be nurtured with award-winning, custom-tailored eNewsletters.
Social Media
Next, we got to work optimizing Scottsdale Air’s social media pages.
By establishing a consistent brand and strong message on popular social media websites like Facebook, LinkedIn, and YouTube, Scottsdale Air gained immediate credibility and positioned themselves as a serious player in the Arizona HVAC market.
Results
Updating the company’s website, optimizing their social media pages, and launching a new SEO campaign produced incredible results:
- Their website conversion rate increased by an incredible 430%
- Scottsdale Air went from 25 leads in the first month of our campaign to 145 high-quality leads by January
Impressively, these results came during the “off season” for HVAC contractors in Arizona – the fall and winter time.
Our marketing team continued to focus on helping Scottsdale Air:
- Fill their sales pipeline by enhancing overall lead generation efforts
- Effectively stay top-of-mind with customers and prospects in order to increase average customer value
- Dominate their local market online
The Internet marketing campaigns have turned into a very reliable lead generation tool for Scottsdale Air.
They consistently attract 3 to 4 new customers per day from the Internet.
These are brand-new customers likely to become long-term customers because of the incredible service provided by Scottsdale Air.

It is critically important that your marketing team understand the ever-changing algorithms used by search engines and that they regularly update your website to maintain a high ranking.

This increase in targeted traffic has played a key role in helping Scottsdale Air become an undeniable authority in their local niche market online and, more importantly, attract 3 to 4 new high-quality customers a day from the Internet.
Integrating a Predictable Online Customer Review System
Online reviews are becoming ever more important to a business’s overall reputation.
That’s why we implemented a turn-key online review system that made requesting reviews simple for the techs and submitting reviews simple for the customers.
Our online review system consistently converted 30 percent of happy customers to glowing online reviews; this boost to Scottsdale Air’s reputation was priceless and has directly impacted the company’s prospect-to-customer conversion rate.
Leveraging Social Media
Staying active on social media has helped Scottsdale Air build a fence around their customers and prospects.
By sharing interesting information and helpful resources targeted to their audience, Scottsdale Air continues to provide value to customers and prospects alike.
In addition, when interested prospects are looking for a trustworthy HVAC company on social media, Scottsdale Air makes a strong impression by remaining available to answer questions online.
Increasing Email Open Rate To 39% Permanently
Their eNewsletter continues to generate impressive results while providing a constant means of communicating with customers and more chances of turning them into lifetime buyers.
The campaign has a lifetime open rate of 39.2%, which means that over the course of Scottsdale Air’s 2+ year-old eNewsletter campaign, just under 40% of all recipients opened their e-mails.
Almost 10% clicked on a link inside the email—that means their email list is active and likes what we’re sending them.
These results are rare to see and almost unheard of in the HVAC industry:
Let Us Take The Hard Work Out Of Digital Marketing
When Scottsdale Air partnered up with us, they needed to build an Unstoppable Online Lead Generation Machine, capable of consistently attracting targeted, profitable leads from the Internet.
Fast-forward a few years and our lead generation team has help Scottsdale Air generate a consistent flow of new, profitable customers from the Internet every single day.
Here are the main highlights of the Scottsdale Air Campaign:
- Produced over 430% increase in online lead generation efforts in first 5 months of the campaign.
- Integrated a turn-key online review system into the Scottsdale Air business that helped produce consistent, high-quality online reviews at a predictable 30% customer review rate.
- Daily social media posts that engaged followers through education, humor, and timely promotions that engaged audiences.
- Leveraged an award-winning monthly eNewsletter service (the Email Profit System) that generated a 39.2% open rate over a 2-year period. According to Constant Contact, the average open rate in the construction industry is 22%.
- Attracted on average 3 to 4 new customers every day from the Internet, far exceeding Mike’s original goals.
Just as importantly, the our team helped Mike do two very important things:
Save Time
Mike gave us the grunt work and led us into his vision that ultimately saved him effort and time that he would have invested in learning and implementing techniques that may not even work.
He saved time from:
- Researching marketing techniques
- Labor over communication with his marketing company
- Conduct time-consuming experiments to find the best marketing strategies.
Instead, Mike and his team were free to focus on the most important part of their business—serving their customers—while our team improved their digital footprint and kept them updated with comprehensive marketing reports.
Save Money
Mike received a tremendous ROI from his investment in our services.
He saved money by:
- Outsourcing his marketing needs. In-house marketing experts could cost anywhere from $50-100,000 per year to achieve what we achieved at a fraction of the cost.
- Hiring and training employees, paying taxes on them, paying their benefits, and providing both office space and equipment is enormously expensive.
Mike made the smart investment by avoiding all of those extraneous costs and choosing a partnership with us that would take his online presence to the next level and allow his business to grow for years to come.
