Marketing Should Begin with Demand.

SurfLocal starts by asking where customers are already demonstrating commercial intent, then builds relevant paths that can move the response into real business workflows.

Opportunity Finder philosophy

People search for needs before they search for company names.

A customer commonly searches for the problem, service, product or location they need. Marketing becomes more useful when it follows that buying intent instead of relying only on broad brand promotion.

Demand

Find where intent already exists

Concentrate on service categories, customer problems, locations and purchase-intent pages where real demand is appearing.

Problem-based searchService-based intentLocation-based opportunity
Follow demand instead of assumptions.
Relevance

Publish a path that matches the need

A page should reflect what the customer is trying to buy and give the person a clear reason and path to respond.

The page earns the response.
Ownership

Route the response into work

Web Programs can use client-specific publishing and private routing identities so the resulting lead reaches the correct team member and Lead Manager.

A lead should not disappear into an inbox.
The acquisition continuum

A complete marketing system should not stop when the customer clicks.

The stronger question is whether attention progressed into an owned lead, appointment, estimate and completed customer.

Traffic versus business outcomes

Clicks are useful. Customers are more useful.

Marketing activity and business activity answer different questions. SurfLocal's direction is to connect them more closely over time.
