Part 1: The Challenge
Small businesses have never had more opportunities to market themselves. Social channels like Facebook, Instagram and Snapchat have levelled the playing field for creating visibility. Facebook Ads, Google Adwords and other advertising platforms have made it easy to advertise directly to interested clients. Simple business management, email marketing and other tools have also allowed small businesses to create efficient and close relationships with their customers, enhancing both the experience they provide and the reputation they develop.
Within this broad ecosystem of digital marketing opportunities, many small businesses have found success, but many more have also found themselves lost, unsure of the necessary steps to take in marketing themselves effectively.

Marketing agencies answer the call: they provide expertise, guidance and the marketing management necessary to help small businesses succeed.
There is a massive, untapped demand for marketing solutions that provide clear results while saving small businesses the time, energy and distractions imposed by managing their own marketing efforts.
New revenue streams with small businesses clients are clearly open to you, but they will always require that you diligently tie the value of your work to clear outcomes for your client’s business. You can offer a variety of tools to show your customers of their improved search rankings, better visibility on social channels, increased awareness and even purchase intent, but none of these address the fundamental interactions business owners understand and appreciate most, namely: appointments, calls, chats and other forms of direct interaction and communication with consumers.
As an agency, this is a massive opportunity:

46%of local businesses state
that they’d prefer to centralize their tasks and award all their marketing requirements to only one
provider2.

Interestingly, these are the same interactions that consumers clearly prefer.
Why would you not take the opportunity to turn these preferences into both a new revenue stream and a means to retain and nurture your existing business? Why would your client want a click when they can get a call or a chat? Why would they want a form-fill when they can get a confirmed appointment, a demo or some other scheduled interaction that meets their customer’s preferences?
At their core, these interactions require a durable, fully mobile CRM to manage every interaction that your clients have with their customers. Recalling that 46% of local businesses stated they’d prefer to centralize their tasks and award all their marketing requirements to one provider, a bundled CRM serves as the perfect anchor for any agency to become the provider of choice to its small business clients.

HOW DO YOU ADDRESSTHE REAL CHALLENGES FACING YOUR PRO-SMB CLIENTS?In providing solutions to your clients, web presence management and the interactions consumers prefer would likely be top-of-mind in ensuring the highest conversion and lead quality possible for your clients. A simple, fully mobile CRM software, capable of managing numerous staff members and locations, with further added features like email marketing, would seem like an afterthought, particularly in light of a recent study4 that stated:
21% of small business owners don’t store their customer contact information anywhere
24% use CRM software
20% use an email marketing service provider, while 45% don’t maintain an email list that prospective customers can opt into
While this would seem to show that a mobile CRM is not priority for your small business clients, it is actually a crucial challenge they face in empowering themselves to be more productive, particularly in their marketing efforts.
Integrated solutions are critical because they provide a system of record for the outcomes and performance of your agency’s marketing services. According to a 2016 study by Dun & Bradstreet, 41% of marketers cite inconsistent data across technologies as their biggest challenge for maximizing the return on investment in marketing technology5. This challenge is even more significant to external marketers - without being on the same premises, with the same team, and the same daily objectives, you can never be sure that your clients fully understand the outcomes of your work.

This lack of clarity can lead to uncertainty, impatience, and constant risk to the continuity of your services. Often, your customers may want to “go big or go home”, but you know achieving real results takes time and long-term commitment. This speaks to the challenges your agencies have always faced:
To a customer, this predictable growth means something altogether different from what you may see as outcomes in terms of page views, visitors, clickthroughs, conversions, impressions, costs-per-click or any other generally accepted digital marketing KPIs. Your clients want new customers delivered directly to them through an application that they can use every day. They want appointments booked, calls made or planned, detailed questionnaires completed and more - all of the interactions that clearly show you are generating and capturing customer interest for your clients.
While providing all this may seem daunting, it’s actually easy, doable under your own brand, and leaves only a small step between you and the steady, consistent growth you’ve always wanted for your agency.
Agency life has fundamentally been stuck in an uncertain, project-based model for too long, while introducing a first rung of software tools can transition you to a model that emphasizes
retention, stability and predictable growth. While also generating predictable revenues for
your agency.

It’s a fact - your clients want to be empowered in their everyday activities and get closer to their customers. What’s more, their customers also want their local businesses to offer meaningful interactions like appointments, calls, chats and more. For your agency, the real challenge is that you need to create a system that allows you to prove the value of all your other work, whether that work be PPC and SEM campaigns, SEO, Conversion Optimization, Content Marketing, Web Development or more.
With your clients’ needs foremost in your mind, you can begin to piece together the idea of what you need to offer them: a complete presence online while closing the loop on the value of your other services. This is particularly challenging in the face of strong competition for local businesses from major media providers6.
Larger media companies and yellow-page providers are starting to step into the digital marketing territory that was once all yours for the taking. You know you can compete with them on quality, but in order to make that clear to your clients, before they get tempted to make a switch, you need ways to make them stick with you through thick and thin. Instead of jumping project to project with daily updates punctuated with uncertainty and doubt, you can give them all the interactions they and their customers want.

This solution can also be offered in white or private label, ensuring that nothing but your own brand comes through to your customer. The only element left to understand is how you can effectively incorporate such a powerful offering into the services you already deliver to your clients, and how it will impact your bottom line.
