Social media
Facebook for a tradesperson
Often deemed outdated, Facebook is nonetheless still widely used by a local, loyal clientele, ideal for a tradesperson working in their region.
A page designed for trust
Create a professional page separate from your personal profile. Fill in your trade, your service area, your phone number and your hours. For a tradesperson, trust is decisive: show who you are and what you can do.
Before/after job photos are especially telling. They prove your know-how better than any pitch and reassure hesitant customers.
Facebook's specific strengths
Facebook offers levers well suited to a local business:
- The local groups of your town, where residents ask for tradesperson recommendations.
- Digital word of mouth, when a satisfied customer recommends you in a comment.
- Messaging, which lets you receive quote requests directly.
- Reviews, which build your reputation over time.
Posting usefully without spending your evenings on it
No need to post every day. Regularly show your work, share a maintenance tip, announce your availability. A tradesperson who shares their work inspires trust.
Reply quickly to messages: a request left unanswered often goes to a competitor. Facebook then becomes a simple channel for receiving qualified contacts. To go further, Skywebis can connect your page to a showcase website that presents your work.
