THE STRATEGY

Our omnichannel approach to marketing for landscape design.

We started by designing and developing a brand-new website built to showcase Brightwater’s outdoor lighting and irrigation work, meticulously optimized for search to improve visibility and attract relevant organic traffic. From there, we layered on the channels that put Brightwater in front of customers across the Orlando metro at every stage of their search.

Local Search Visibility & SERP Coverage

As a local landscape design company, it is crucial for Brightwater to be visible to potential customers in their area, so our primary focus is maximizing visibility in the search results. We combine organic content marketing, GPS SEO, and Google Business Profile optimization, then layer on Local Service Ads and PPC to saturate the results with the Brightwater brand.

Pay-per-Click (PPC) Advertising

In addition to organic optimization, we run strategic paid search campaigns on platforms like Google Ads. Through targeted keyword research and ad creation, we make sure Brightwater’s ads reach customers actively searching for landscape lighting services in their area. By monitoring performance, optimizing copy, and refining targeting, we maximize ad spend and generate quality leads.
