Why Local Businesses Shouldn't Care About Going Viral
If you run a local service business, like a plumbing company in Houston, your marketing goals should look completely different from an online coach. I spoke with a franchise owner recently who understood this perfectly. He realized that getting a million views from people in New York does absolutely nothing for his bottom line.
For a local business, the goal is not virality. The goal is local brand recognition. If a homeowner in your specific zip code sees your video, recognizes your logo, and keeps scrolling without hitting unfollow, that is a massive win. You are planting a seed in their brain.
When their pipes eventually burst six months later, they are not going to Google "plumbers near me" and call a random number. They are going to call the company they have been seeing on their feed every single week. Stop chasing viral metrics and start dominating your local market.
