5 quick tricks to get discovered by more new customers 

It’s easier than you may think to grow your business with ServiceChannel. More than 600 top-tier customers with 500,000 locations rely on Provider Search to expand their networks with businesses like yours. The information in your business profile is a big factor in showing up for the right new customers.  

Here are 5 simple things to double-check in your profile now to help them find you and click the “Invite” button:  

1. Is your service coverage accurately defined? The most common reasons great providers like you miss out on invitations — or get invitations they have to decline — can be traced to how their service coverage is defined. Brush up on how to accurately define your geographic areas of service by trade. If you can support an expanded area, update it now!  
2. Have you specified all the trades you can support?  
3. Are your certificates of insurance up to date? This is important to customers and lets them know you’re ready to get on board. 
4. Do you specify after hours? Emergencies happen, and customers need to know they can reach you at any time. If you can support it, select the 24-hour service option and provide a 24-hour contact phone number. 
5. Did you include your logo? It may not seem like a big deal, but customers are influenced by a logo as a symbol of professionalism. 

Of course, good scores are also key to getting found and invited. Keep up the good work, keep your profile current, and get more work from top-tier customers.
