42 Best Clients for Digital Marketing Services – Local Niches to Target

Best clients to sell digital marketing services to

Nearly every business that exists in today’s world can benefit from digital marketing.

Essentially, any business in which the majority of their customers use the internet is a prime target for your services.

However, there are certain industries that lend themselves to the online world.

Digital marketing is a broad term that includes many different services. For this article, we’ll assume you’re only offering marketing services around the big 2 platforms: Facebook or Google. With this in mind, let’s waste no further time and cover the 44 best clients for digital marketing services.

 

Characteristics to Look for

The best digital marketing clients generally have some characteristics in common with one another.

Below, you’ll find a list of qualities to be on the lookout for when choosing your niche.

The service/product has a high price point and or lifetime customer value

The more a business makes from a single sale and customer the easier it is for you to justify high retainers for your services.

Secondly, you won’t have to be as concerned about the total volume of traffic you drive to the business since a single customer can make them $10/20/30k dollars.

Therefore, it’s ideal to aim to get high-end digital marketing clients as opposed to business with low price-points.

Quick sales turnaround & simple sales process

There are some industries where customer’s do deep research before making a purchase. Additionally, there are other niches where the sales process can last months at a time.

In general, you’ll want to try and avoid these spaces since your conversion rates will suffer.

Look for industries where there is low brand loyalty, the sale process is simple, and people just need a solution as soon as possible.

Specifically, emergency home services perform exceptionally well with digital marketing strategies because the customers are looking for quick solutions, the sales process is simple (an estimate), and the prices are significantly higher for real estate repairs.

Competitors are already investing in online marketing

It’s counter-intuitive but you’ll want to look for niches that already have competition spending money on online marketing. Further, it helps to find markets where there are other agencies providing the service you intend to offer.

Competition points to healthy markets and verifies that a) businesses are benefiting from marketing online and b) they’re hiring agencies to do the work for them.

Lastly, the best clients for digital marketing are going to be the companies already investing money in it. It’s much harder to convince a company with no online presence to invest in ad management than a company spending $5,000 a month in ad spend.

 

How People Use the Internet

As mentioned earlier, this list of businesses to target lumps digital marketing as a whole.

You may find that some industries on this list perform better with Facebook and others will perform better with Google.

Most of this information will come from market research into the buying behavior of the specific industry’s customers.

You should try and determine, upfront, which platform to leverage at the start but ultimately, testing and data will tell you which marketing strategy is most effective for an industry.
