Price Engines

You’d be surprised just how often we supply a lead to a company only to find that they’d very recently completed a job on exactly the same street – sometimes just a few doors down.

One recent example was a Garage Conversion supplier, who had been displaying signs in the driveway on a recent job and had their van parked in front of the property with their company logo on it. A week later they received a lead from Price Engines – for the house next door!

The reason this happens is simple: more than ever, customers are looking towards the internet to find home improvements suppliers, and Price Engines are right there making sure they’re finding you.

It just goes to show, you might think you’re doing everything right and you’ve got everything covered, but there’s no more cost effective way of finding customers in your area than Price Engines.

We love creating websites. Nothing makes us happier. That’s why, if you rent a Price Engine from us, we’ll register, design and host a website for you.

For Free.

No, really. We mean it.

Other companies will charge you upwards of £500-1000 just for a website, we’re giving them away! For the cost of just a couple of leads a week, you can have your own Price Engine, a .co.uk domain, unlimited server space and bandwidth, and best of all a bespoke professionally-designed website based around your company’s branding. Oh, and the ability to give your site’s visitors instant quotes on your products while you log their enquiries and can follow them up later.

Why do we do all this for free? Because we believe in building strong relationships with our long-term customers. Whilst businesses that already have websites can integrate Price Engines straight into them, many customers come to us who don’t have websites of their own and want our help getting their businesses online. Because we offer an end-to-end service – domain registration, site hosting, web design and lead generation – we take all the hassle out of harnessing the power of the internet to get you customers.

Who’s afraid of the credit crunch?

‘Blogging’ might seem like just another fad, but blogs are changing the way that customers think about products and services – and the companies that supply them. With your own blog, you can communicate directly with your customers and give your company a ‘human face’.

Writing a blog doesn’t have to be complicated either. You aren’t writing a brochure that needs to be approved by the marketing department, this is a conversation about your company and why it is great. To help get you started, we’ve put together this list of top tips to get your new business blog off the ground:

• Blog about your products: Where was your last installation? Do you have some photographs or a quote from the customer? Get them up, so that potential customers can see what it’s like to buy your products from you.
• Blog about your industry: You’re the experts, show people that on your blog! New government legislation, advice on modern materials and standards, anything that helps show how well you know your industry.
• Blog about your company: If you’re headed for a trade show or event, blog about it before you go so that people who see you there can read about it (and even write back) when they get home. Blog about it when you get back, so you can share your pictures with the world. Blog about staff promotions, new hires, TV appearances, industry accreditations and anything else relevant to your company. Give your company a human face, and customers will feel more confident about buying your services.
• Blog about anything! A member of staff has had their baby. The receptionist’s cat had kittens. The coffee machine broke and you had a team-building trip to Starbucks – these can all make great blog topics, and can inject humour and reality into your company’s image, helping you stand out from the competition.

At Price Engines we offer a range of blogging and social media services. We’ll help you set up a blog, and we’ll handle the technical side of it, so you can get on with striking up a conversation with your customers.
