If you’re a contractor or own a contractor business, you need to market yourself to grow clientele and increase profits.  

How else will people know you exist? As a contractor licensing company, our team at Licenses Etc. wanted to share with you a few tips on how you can promote yourself as a contractor, so you can get yourself more business.  

• Word of mouth – Spread the word to family and friends that you are officially licensed customer and looking for work/clients. Let them know what you do for work and your skillset. Give them a business card. 
• Social media – Make yourself a professional social media page on Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram. Take photos of your work and share it. Engage with people. Talk about your services. 

• Website – Build yourself a website or hire a website development company to make one for you. It’s 2021 – If you don’t have a website, you’ll fall behind. People want to go online to look at your credentials, work, testimonials, etc. if you don’t have a website, potential customers may not think you’re professional or credible. Even if you are a one-man operation, a website is still necessary. A website is an online calling card. Your website gives you an online presence. The internet is where people turn to for information on everything. It’s the new yellow pages. By typing into the search engines, they can easily find you based on keywords like “general contractor in Naples, Florida.” You need an online presence as a contractor. If you’re not online, you’ll be missing out on so many potential customers. In today’s world, the internet is where your customers are at!
