These details should guide your marketing and sales strategy. They’ll also help you craft a more personalized message that speaks directly to these individuals’ needs and concerns.

Leveraging compelling calls to action (CTAs) can be a game-changer for driving conversions. Here are five suggestions, each with a different key aim and audience in mind:

  1. Free Roofing Inspection CTA: “Schedule Your Free Roof Inspection Now!” This CTA can be for any property owners, especially Homeowner Howard and Property Manager Peter, who may have concerns about their roof’s current condition. The word ‘free’ often motivates people to take the first step.
  2. Project Gallery CTA: “View Our Project Gallery” It’s not a direct conversion CTA, but it provides social proof and can push potential clients like Real Estate Developer Rachel, and Contractor Charlie, to see the quality of your work.
  3. Request A Quote CTA: “Get a Customized Quote Now!” This CTA can be for anyone ready to start a roofing project, appealing to those who want to understand the cost implications like Business Owner Beatrice.
  4. Contact Us CTA: “Speak to Our Roofing Experts Today!” This can target visitors who have questions or need further information before making a decision. It gives them direct access to your team for any further queries.
  5. Download a Guide CTA: “Download Our Free Guide: ‘Maintaining Your Commercial Roof'” Offering useful, free information can help you gather contact information for potential leads and establish trust. This CTA is particularly beneficial for information-seeking personas like Property Manager Peter.

Remember, it’s crucial to test and measure responses to these CTAs to see what resonates best with your audience. That way, you can tweak and optimize for better results over time.

A well-planned content strategy can significantly improve conversion rates. Here’s a content layout for your homepage, keeping in mind the personas, their goals, motivations, fears, and desires.

1. Headline: At the top of the homepage should be a clear, engaging headline that instantly communicates what ABC Roofing does. Something like, “Providing Quality Residential and Commercial Roofing Solutions Across New York.”

2. Subheadline: A powerful subheadline can drill down a bit further into what services are offered or what makes your company unique. Example: “From emergency repairs to new installations, we’re your trusted roofing partner.”

3. Hero Image: A high-quality image or slider that showcases your team in action, displaying a finished roofing project, or perhaps a before-and-after scenario.

4. Value Propositions: Three to four brief points that highlight the key benefits of choosing ABC Roofing, such as quality guarantee, free estimates, wide range of services, and excellent customer service.

5. Services Overview: A brief introduction to your main services with relevant CTAs. For example, for ’emergency roof repair,’ the CTA could be ‘Get immediate help.’ This section can be expanded on a separate page for each service.

6. Testimonials/Reviews: Displaying testimonials from satisfied clients provides social proof. This is a great way to alleviate fears, as it shows that other customers were satisfied with ABC Roofing’s services.

7. Project Highlights: This could include images from recent jobs, case studies, or project overviews. This can appeal to Real Estate Developer Rachel or Contractor Charlie who are looking for evidence of your capabilities.

8. Blog/News Section: Regularly updated content like blogs or news relevant to your industry can position ABC Roofing as an expert in the field and appeal to information-seeking personas like Property Manager Peter.

9. About Us: Briefly introduce your company, your team, and your mission to establish credibility and trust. This can also provide a human touch to the company.

10. Contact Section: The end of the homepage should include contact information and a form for visitors to request additional information, paired with a compelling CTA like, “Contact our experts for a free consultation!”

Each part of this layout is designed with one or more of our targeted personas in mind and drives towards converting visitors into leads. Remember, it’s essential to try different approaches, measure the results, and adjust the strategy accordingly.

Here are the key benefits that would appeal to the different personas when engaging with an experienced roofing company like ABC Roofing:

  1. Reliability and Trust: Experienced companies have a proven track record of delivering quality service. This assurance can bring peace of mind to all personas, particularly Homeowner Howard and Business Owner Beatrice, who are likely more concerned about safeguarding their investments.
  2. Excellent Customer Service: A reputable company understands the value of excellent customer service in building long-term relationships with clients. From providing clear communication & updates to addressing concerns promptly, high-quality customer service is a huge plus for Property Manager Peter and Contractor Charlie.
  3. Technical Expertise: A seasoned roofing company comes with vast technical expertise in handling different roofing systems, materials, and problems. Real Estate Developer Rachel would find this expertise invaluable for her large-scale projects.
  4. Cost-Effectiveness: Experienced roofing companies can offer cost-effective solutions by correctly diagnosing problems, offering affordable repair options, and providing long-lasting solutions that prevent future damages. Business Owner Beatrice, who is highly cost-conscious, would appreciate this benefit.

  6. Warranty and Maintenance Services: Many experienced roofing companies provide warranties on their work and offer periodic maintenance services to ensure the longevity of the roofs they install or repair. This can be particularly attractive to Property Manager Peter, who is always aiming for efficient and hassle-free property maintenance.

Meta descriptions are important for both SEO and to engage the user from the search results page. Here are 3 suggestions:

  1. “Looking for a reliable roofing company in New York? ABC Roofing offers top-quality residential and commercial services. Reach out today!”
  2. “ABC Roofing, your trusted roofing company in New York, providing exceptional residential and commercial roofing solutions for all needs.”
  3. “Need a top-tier roofing company in New York? Trust ABC Roofing for all your residential and commercial roofing requirements. Contact us now!”

What Else Can You Do With These Prompts?

The reason that these prompts work so well is because of the context that you’re building for the AI. Ask it to suggest a call-to-action, and you’ll likely get a generic suggestion. Get AI to identify major stakeholders, pain points, motivating factors, and THEN ask it for a call-to-action and you’ll get a MUCH more tailored and effective suggestion.

So what else can you do with these prompts?

Try asking Addison to suggest anything else you may need like ad copy, photo selections, promotional offers to consider, design suggestions – pretty much anything you might need. You’ll see that you get significantly better recommendations and ideas after building this type of context for a persona like Addison’s.
