How do MENA clients find contractors?
Have you noticed how the majority of construction directories in the region have information about your potential clients but you have to pay a very high subscription fee to access that information? Maybe you’ve tried to Google your own company name and discovered that you are featured on one of those free online directories that are covered with ads that lowers your brand value?
There is a better way to do business.
Over 90% of companies we interviewed in our 2015 Global Construction Survey wanted to grow their business, especially outside their core market. However, almost 50% said that their number one problem was generating awareness in the market for their products and services, even when using a variety of different tools & techniques to market their services.
If you have a subscription to a premium business directory, you probably aren’t getting maximum value from it. Most likely you have to note down the relevant contact details manually and then try to call or email the listed contact person.
Have you wondered why conversion rates are so low using this method? It’s because your future clients aren’t able to find you and learn more about your company.
Today, more than ever, people are using the web to find partners to do business with and learn about their company and products.
We found that 67% of construction companies websites used Flash, a technology which not only makes it impossible for it to be seen on most mobiles, but also is notoriously infamous for its security flaws. Furthermore, less than 1% of company websites are secure and mobile optimized, two factors which are now a critical part of how Google and other search engines rank websites. Websites that are optimized for search engines and for the mobile device consistently see uplift in traffic and sales.
