Bricks-to-Clicks Success with New Social Media Contractor Edition from GenNext Media

20-Day “Surefire” Guide Virtually Guarantees New Opportunities for Contractors

Reston, Va., Oct. 2, 2009/PRNewswire/ — Contractors typically deal in bricks, not clicks, but now they can jump-start their business by plugging in to the newest Social media online outlets like Facebook, Linked In, blogs, chatrooms and Twitter in part due to a new partnership between GenNext Media LLC., an interactive media and marketing services company, and www.contractor.net. The new venture, Surefire Social Contractor Edition, will debut Oct. 8-10 at the Certified Contractors Network (CCN) Fall Conference in San Jose, CA.

“This new 20-day guide clearly shows independent building contractors daily steps to use social media marketing successfully,” said Chris Marentis, Founder and CEO, GenNext Media LLC and CCN conference speaker. “Surefire Social Contractor Edition provides the ‘insider’ contracting perspective so that powerful internet resources are maximized…it’s quite more than having a webpage or a listing but a way to get noticed, remembered and contacted.”

Surefire Social Contractor Edition guides a “do it yourself” action plan through Web 2.0 technologies to exponentially increase business leads in less than a month’s time. The friendly but persistent program aims to develop and implement a marketing program focused on quick cycles and related business results. Surefire Social Contractor catapults leads for contractors by effectively using massive visibility available through social interaction sites to meet consumers where they are—online searching for qualified contractors for their project needs.

“Two significant results came from implementing this social media marketing strategy,” said Scott Siegal, President, Certified Contractors Network and Roofing Contractor. “First, it exponentially increased our visibility as an expert and leader, and second, it drastically reduced the average $300 per lead marketing costs for contractors. In addition, and hard to put a price on, social networking gave us trusted word-of-mouth referrals from online friends.”
