Frequently Asked Questions
A great place to start with generating leads for your plumbing business is email marketing. Email marketing is a worthwhile marketing strategy for all types of business, including plumbing.

Here are some tips for writing a great email campaign for your business:
- Find the customer base – In plumbing, just like with most businesses, email marketing campaigns begin with segmenting and targeting the right clients for your business. Determine the demographics and customer base most likely to appreciate your services and will get the most out of a partnership with you.
- Streamline your pitch – From there, streamline and make your messaging concise so that the important points about your plumbing business shine through to your clients and emphasise what separates you from your competitors.
Warm up your email – Don’t send your emails all at once to your customer base. This will likely lead to significant email providers marking your emails as spam. Instead, send out your emails a little at a time, increasing the load daily until you send no more than 200 emails daily.
