Marketing Resellers: Win More Home Services Clients with Platform-Specific Ad Strategies
Homeowners aren’t passively scrolling. They’re actively planning by researching repairs, comparing services, and checking reviews. And they’re doing it across the same platforms where they watch videos, read recipes, and keep up with their neighborhood.
That’s why channel strategy matters.
Your SMB clients are competing for attention, and they’re competing to be the clear choice the moment a decision is made. With the right platform mix and prebuilt creative aligned to each channel’s role, marketing resellers equip their clients to stay visible from early research through final booking. This approach ensures SMBs show up where decisions are made – on the platforms homeowners already trust.
Facebook: Build Trust and Stay Top of Mind
For homeowners, Facebook is the modern-day recommendation engine. It’s where people ask for advice, read reviews, and compare providers. With its precision targeting and broad demographic reach, it remains the backbone of local advertising.
For SMBs, Facebook works best when it highlights reputation and readiness. Help your clients run campaigns that showcase limited-time offers, seasonal reminders, and rave reviews. Facebook’s cost efficiency and geo-targeting make it a powerful everyday presence.
Best use cases:
- Promoting time-sensitive services.
- Sharing customer testimonials.
- Maintaining low-cost visibility across all age groups.
Instagram & TikTok: Engage with Motion, Win with Personality
Younger homeowners live on video. They don’t just want to read about a service, they want to see it. Reels and TikToks that show how a service works, highlight before-and-after results, or lean into community quirks get attention fast.
Instagram offers tight targeting and easier production. TikTok trades polish for storytelling, and rewards consistency. Together, they let your clients showcase what makes them different, useful, and trustworthy.
Resellers who automate short-form video campaigns remove a major creative hurdle for SMBs and help them show up with confidence.
Best use cases:
- Service walkthroughs and transformations.
- Relatable, low-budget content with strong hooks.
- Reaching digital-first, mobile-driven audiences.
Amazon Sponsored Display: Tap Into High-Intent Moments
Amazon isn’t just a store. It’s a signal. When someone’s shopping for pest traps, AC filters, or water damage kits, they’re already thinking about the job.
That’s where Amazon Sponsored Display comes in. Even if your client doesn’t sell products on Amazon, their service ad can appear right where homeowners are signaling intent.
There’s just a one dollar daily spend, and targeting is built around actual shopping behavior. For SMBs, it’s a quiet but powerful way to catch attention early in the decision cycle.
Best use cases:
- Targeting buyers during product consideration.
- Supporting seasonal spikes in demand.
- Creating low-cost awareness aligned with real-time needs.
Strategy Wins When It’s Platform-Specific
Each channel serves a purpose. Facebook drives trust. Instagram and TikTok deliver an emotional connection. Amazon captures intent. When your platform automates campaigns tailored to each channel’s strength, SMBs gain the tools to turn visibility into a real connection.
That’s how resellers deliver value beyond fulfillment. You make it easy for clients to show up in the right place, with the right message, at the right time.
And in home services, timing changes everything.
