Founded in 1959, Generac manufacturers a wide range of power products, including portable, RV, residential, commercial and industrial generators. Generac provides power solution for both home and business owners.
The Challenge
The wide use of online marketing strategies by local dealers had allowed Generac to experience a fierce competition with other power products manufacturers. As a result, Generac was faced with a decrease in direct leads, loss of control over brand representation and an increase in advertising costs due to dealer bidding wars.
The Solution
Top Floor Technologies established a central marketing program that allowed Generac to regain control of their brand and online marketing expenses through:
- Controlling geographic area a dealer was marketing in using local paid search and business listings
- Maximizing Generac’s brand exposure while providing greater coverage through social media, Internet Yellow Pages, and directories
- Maintaining national online presence without direct competition to the local dealer
- Controlling bid costs, to eliminate bidding wars that artificially drive up expenses
