What they did

Blog and YouTube channel for maid service owners built around three umbrella topics: hiring great cleaners, marketing/sales (getting more clients), and management/automation/systems. Content aims to be valuable to the whole industry so it's worth doing regardless of measurable results. Mostly top-of-funnel (traffic, brand equity until owners are ready to switch software), plus a few bottom-of-funnel pages that reliably lead to trial signups. Currently investing in SEO.

What happened

Lots of traffic, few direct conversions; builds brand for when owners switch; inbound took over from ~100 customers

Amar Ghoseso essentially like,

Amar Ghose… cleaning services, right? So like the actual product, which is mainly hiring, right? It's hiring great great cleaners. The marketing, or the sales, getting like more cleaners. And then like the management, and like the automation, and like and and the systems. And so what we've, um, done there is we've essentially just tried to create as much content around helping them to be successful with marketing, and with hiring, and then we've had some other topics that have kind of come up like organically like over, um, over time. But, um, that that's like top-of-funnel content. So people oftentimes find our blog when they have no interest in changing like their current scheduling solution, right? So it gets us a lot of traffic, but it doesn't get us like a huge amount of conversions, but it builds up our brand equity over time. And so the idea is that like when they're ready to switch, they like they they will, right? Or they'll they'll at least take a look and evaluate our software, and then from there, our software has to do the work of like of converting them. But that's essentially like the strategy in a nutshell, and then like from there, you know, what I just said, that's all of like the top-of-funnel content. And then from there, we have a couple of pieces that are more bottom-of-funnel content where we know that if somebody hits this page, then like they're likely going to go to our website and sign up for a trial, right? Or considerably more more likely, at least.

NazUh, so just to, um, to get a better understanding. So you have some pieces of content that you charge for those, right? On your website. So what's the thinking behind that?
