Winning the Race When Home Disasters Strike
Emergency home service calls—like flooded basements, frozen pipes, electrical outages, or storm-damaged roofs—are among the highest-margin jobs for local contractors. However, when panic strikes, homeowners reach for the phone number closest at hand.
Creating a Countertop Keeper Mailer
To ensure your postcard stays on the refrigerator or magnetic bulletin board until an emergency happens:
- Include an Emergency Service Hotline: Display a bold, oversized 24/7 emergency dispatch phone number.
- Offer a Same-Day Response Guarantee: "At Your Door Within 60 Minutes or $50 Off Your Invoice!"
- Add Useful Utility/Local Safety Numbers: Feature local emergency numbers alongside your branding to increase card retention.
