ABOUT GAUGE
Founded in 2013, Gauge Digital Media has established itself as a partner for digital marketing for home services. Initially serving a broad range of industries, we discovered two key things: that we loved working with our home service clients and that the combination of their industry expertise and our marketing know-how made for a winning combination. Since then, we’ve honed our skills and expanded our toolkit to focus on proven strategies and resources that help our clients turn clicks into booked jobs across the United States.
WHY HOME SERVICES?
There are a few reasons we decided to work with home service providers. On the practical side, it’s hard to be everything to everyone, so early on we knew we had to find our niche. Working with high-quality home service providers (who were also just great people in general) made the decision easy to focus on those industries. From a marketing standpoint, it also made a lot of sense; by focusing on a set of industries, we created processes, plans, and strategies specific to those providers.
Z PLUMBERZ franchise owners open up about what they love about their businesses
Z PLUMBERZ has a great support staff. They offer a lot of training on multiple aspects of plumbing, residential and commercial.
We’ve grown 25% every year, and that’s mainly due to the support staff and call center, allowing me to concentrate on my clients and my team member, and not so much on the accounting or answering the phones or the advertising and marketing side of the business. That is all highly trained and very efficient.
