YOUR MARKETING PARTNER

A MARKETING PLAN DESIGNED FOR YOUR COMPANY AND YOUR INDUSTRY

Cookie-cutter approaches don’t work in marketing. That’s why we offer flexible options, depending on your company’s growth stage.
The Unilock Authorized Dealers that experience the best return on their investment combine multiple services into a comprehensive system that fuels their business growth. Our systems are designed to scale over time, allowing you to know exactly where the best place to start is, and how you’ll grow your marketing plans, over the next several years.

While each of these services is offered as a standalone product, a successful marketing plan always involves consistency across channels.

Predictability

You’ll get a timeline and budget expectations up-front. HALSTEAD has a set process that’s easy to follow and understand. Our efficient, remote process is specifically designed for busy dealers.

Modern and Personalized

We will build off one of our templates to create a cutting-edge, mobile-optimized and fully responsive website that includes information about your products and your company. We write all of the text/copy on the website, choose the best of your images/videos, and the website is yours to own once it’s live.

SEO PLAN

Outrank Your Competitors

With SEO from HALSTEAD, you know exactly where you stand with every keyword. We present an open-book approach to reaching more of the right kind of customers when they are searching.

Keywords & Locations That Matter

To dominate your local market, we’ll identify the ideal cities and towns to focus on, mash them up with the most searched and relevant keywords, and launch ongoing SEO that drives your site to the top of searches.

A Proven Strategy

Effective SEO involves many moving parts working together. That’s why we’ve designed an SEO plan around delivering blog articles, Facebook posts and boosts, along with link building and website updates. This plan works.

Call and Form Tracking

Finally realize the entire picture of your marketing ROI by connecting sales and marketing like never before. No more guessing, no more wondering. For every lead that calls your business or fills out a website form, you’ll know exactly how they found you and from what marketing spend you can attribute the future closed sales to. View these leads, any time, in your reporting dashboard, updated in real time.

Reputation Management

Getting reviews consistently is hard. HALSTEAD streamlines the process, working with you to make it as easy and seamless as possible with a dedicated account portal and login. Provide the customer email, we take care of everything else. Worried about what they’ll say?

Our review system sends out branded emails to your customers as you complete projects. When the customer clicks “a good experience,” they are directed to the platform of choice. If they click “not good,” they are directed to email you directly. Less bad reviews, more positive ones.

Pricing

$1,500/month. Keyword/location research, monthly blog articles (we even post them on your Facebook page, and boost them), SEO pages, backlinks, Google My Business updates, citations, call and form tracking, reputation management. And most importantly, you will track the results via reporting that is accessible 24/7, and updated in real time. To see the most return on your investment, it’s a 12 month commitment. No one time or upfront fees!
