Facebook vs Google Ads

May 10, 20242 min read

If you own a tree service business, you might be used to relying on Google, Angi's, Thumbtack, etc to bring in customers who are actively searching for services like yours. However, there's a more visual and engaging way to reach potential clients—through platforms like Facebook and Instagram. Here’s why this strategy might just be the game changer your business needs:

1. Stand Out with Stunning Visuals

Tree services are visual by nature. Showing before and after photos or videos of your work can have a huge impact. Unlike Google, where ads are mostly text, Facebook lets you use these eye-catching visuals to grab attention. This means you can show off your best work and instantly capture interest, which sets you apart from competitors who only use text.

2. Save Money on Ads

Using images and videos not only looks good but can also save you money. People love to like, comment, and share engaging content on Facebook. The more they interact with your posts, the less you pay to reach more people. This means you can reduce your advertising costs while still reaching a wide audience.

3. Keep Customers Coming Back

Facebook is great for building relationships. You can keep in touch with your customers through regular updates, tips on tree care, and special offers. This ongoing interaction helps keep your business top of mind, so when someone needs tree services again, they’re more likely to call you.

Additional Points:

4. Reach More People

Even if someone isn’t searching for tree services right now, your Facebook ad might just catch their eye and get them thinking about that old tree they’ve been meaning to get trimmed. It's about reaching them before they even start searching.

5. Learn From Your Audience

Facebook offers tools to see what kinds of people are interacting with your ads. This info can help you tailor your services and ads even better, making sure you're hitting the mark with your local community.

6. Jump on Trends

Whether it’s a local storm that’s left a lot of fallen branches or a new trend in landscaping, Facebook allows you to quickly jump in with relevant offers or content that matches what’s current and topical.

Conclusion

Switching some of your advertising dollars from Google to Facebook can make a big difference for your tree service business. With its visual appeal, lower costs, and deeper customer engagement, Facebook gives you the tools to not just attract customers, but to keep them interested and connected to your business.
