We have lots of updates for you this month! Read now for our Q2 results, website form updates, our "Mow Pics, Mo' Money" Instagram contest, and more.
2020 Q2 Marketing Report
Website Form Updates to Improve Lead Experience
To improve your customers' experience online, we are transitioning pricing from the lead form experience. Instead, if you are currently featuring pricing on your website, it will now be featured on a local website page under the “About” section titled “Lawn Care Prices.” This update will be made August 31.
We anticipate this optimization and standardization of the existing lead capture form experience should increase the amount of online lead conversions. By creating a seamless experience for online users, it will:
- Reduce the amount of clicks it takes for the user to both find and fill out the form
- Increase the amount of leads you should receive due to a seamless and quick experience
- Consolidate three forms into one, minimizing user confusion and creating consistency

Occasional Neighborly Customer Surveys

The data gathered is utilized to help the Marketing team create effective campaigns and materials based on customer input. In order for these surveys to be effective and credible, they are sent randomly to various markets and customers from all Neighborly brands.
