This can diversify the revenue streams by targeting large entities, service businesses, and public organizations. 2) Enhanced Digital Marketing: Corporate has recently initiated online advertising and SEO, which is driving traffic that the sales team closes. However, there’s a substantial opportunity to extend these efforts into more channels. This business is primed for targeted social media & video campaigns that can significantly broaden the customer base. 3) Strengthen Community Engagement: The franchise has a strong foundation of existing relationships with approximately 20 dealerships and a variety of local businesses. By enhancing community engagement through targeted marketing initiatives and partnerships with local organizations, the franchise can improve brand visibility and foster deeper customer loyalty.
