Challenges

Collect and analyse data across locations
In order to enhance the local marketing strategy, the head office needed to understand the areas that required improvement. This involved the collection and analysis of data across search, social media, and reviews.
Keep listings accurate and optimized across all locations
City Wide wanted to ensure that whenever customers search for maintenance services, they can easily find the nearest City Wide location listed, along with accurate business information.
Respond to maximum number of reviews in less time
City Wide prioritizes the maintenance of its online reputation by promptly responding to the majority of reviews. This proactive approach plays a crucial role in fostering trust with customers
Give franchisees a revamped social media marketing tool
In the past, franchisees who did not utilize in-house marketing services were introduced to SOCi, but unfortunately, it did not resonate well with them. So new tool should be both easy and cost-effective.

Solution

City Wide needed a versatile tool to implement the brand’s online presence growth strategy while catering to the needs of both the head office and individual franchisees.

PromoRepublic became the local marketing intelligence platform that provided a centralized place to manage the company’s social media marketing, review management, and directory management, as well as giving a 360° real-time oversight of their locations’ visibility performance.

Analytics

Before establishing specific marketing goals for City Wide, PromoRepublic conducted an audit of brand’s local marketing performance across search, social media, listings, and reviews. We identified the areas that required improvement.

Additionally, City Wide assessed its performance across different locations and provided franchisees with valuable insights and actionable suggestions to enhance their visibility and growth.

Franchisees can easily access information relevant to their specific location and, if desired, compare it to peers with similar tenure, size, or revenue.
