You Only Get One Chance to Make a Positive First Impression


Charting the initial steps of your customer's bath or kitchen remodel journey can enable you to stand apart from the competition, establish trust with a potential client and identify opportunities to differentiate your showroom at every touch point. Most customer journeys begin with Google and your website.
 
Your website is the window into the soul of your business. If you visited your website and looked at it through the lens of someone considering a kitchen remodel, what information, message, and/or call to action would attract that person to remain on the site, email you, request information, call your showroom or visit it in person? Your landing page needs to deliver the same impact and make the same impression as the $100,000 "front of the store" display that greets visitors to your showroom. Use your landing page to reflect the most current styles and trends in the marketplace, and answer the question, "why you and not a competitor". 
 
Whet your potential customers' appetites and generate enthusiasm by explaining how their new kitchen will improve their life. And demonstrate how you can deliver the kitchen of their dreams. Finally, have a call to action. Provide a buying guide, a renovation step-by-step guide, a budget guide or other information that makes the customer journey easier. 
 
That being said, do not allow prospects to simply download the information that will help them make their renovation easier, or any other material, without providing you with their name, email and phone number. Finally, remember the website needs to be focused on your potential client's needs and not on you. Potential customers want to know how you can help them and why you they should trust you versus someone else.
