How We Successfully Re-Positioned Wilson Blacktop's Brand via Digital Marketing
From "I had no idea you sold landscaping materials..." to "My wife wants this - she saw it on Facebook."
When Wilson Blacktop came to us in 2017, they suffered from branding and marketing issues that plague many small-town businesses.
They had no website, an outdated logo, no online presence on social media, no digital directory listings, no online reviews, and a massive issue with brand confusion.

The Problem
The first few issues are easy to solve. Any one can build a website, design a modern logo, and list your business online. The real pain point was with the brand confusion. Wilson Blacktop was known for one thing and one thing only - asphalt. It was in the name, so understandably, customers and the community just assumed all they did was blacktop driveways, roads, and parking lots.
However, Wilson Blacktop also sold landscaping materials. They had a large materials yard with over 25 different styles of mulch, gravel, and decorative stone. They were missing a huge potential audience - residents and homeowners in the community. We knew exactly what needed to be done.
Step 1: The Fundamentals
The first thing we needed to do was build an online presence for Wilson Blacktop
-
- Next, we set up a Facebook business page and optimized it for lead generation and customer engagement.
- Then, we designed and developed a beautiful and functional Wordpress website with an online catalog of their landscaping materials.
