Marketing for electricians
Electrician marketing that books the high-value work
Electrical contractors who want more panel upgrades, EV charger installs, and rewires, not a schedule full of cheap outlet calls, rely on our SEO, Google Ads, and websites. Run in-house from Kirkland and Eagle, built on eight years of campaign data.
The landscape
The electrician marketing opportunity most companies miss
Electrical work spans the widest service range of any trade: $150 outlet installs, $5,000 panel upgrades, $8,000 EV charger installs, six-figure commercial projects. Market all of them with one campaign and one landing page and your most expensive clicks go to your lowest-value jobs.
The biggest opportunity right now is the EV charger and panel upgrade surge. EV charger installation searches are up 40 to 60% year over year. Panel upgrades are growing alongside them because most homes need more capacity to handle EV charging, heat pumps, and modern appliances. Electricians who build content and campaigns around these services now own the category for years.
We see electricians spending $40 per click on "electrician near me" to attract a $150 light switch job, while "EV charger installation Kirkland" or "200 amp panel upgrade Seattle" is worth $3,000 to $8,000 and faces far less competition. The fix is segment by service tier and steer budget to the high-margin work.
Every account, asset, and line of content belongs to you. Nothing held hostage. If we part ways, you keep it all.

Our approach
How we help electricians grow
Service-tier campaign structure
Separate campaigns for high-value projects, emergency calls, and standard residential work. Each tier gets its own budget, keywords, and landing pages. Your most profitable services get the ad spend they need instead of being starved by high-volume, low-value emergency keywords.
EV charger and panel upgrade category ownership
Dedicated content, landing pages, and Google Ads campaigns for EV charger installs and panel upgrades captures a market growing 40 to 60% year over year. Competition is still low compared to generic electrician keywords. The electricians who establish authority here today own the category for years.
License and certification badges front and center
Electrical work involves safety, permits, and code compliance. Buyers want to see licensing, bonding, insurance, and manufacturer certifications before they call. Display above the fold on every page. They build trust, cut bounce, and lift conversion across paid and organic.
Residential and commercial segmentation
Different buyers, keywords, landing pages, and conversion actions. Residential prospects want project photos and scheduling. Commercial prospects want capacity information, licensing details, and references. Serve both well by treating them as separate channels.
What to expect
Your first 90 days with us
Week 1-2
Find your growth services
We audit current marketing and identify the services with the best margin and growth potential. For most electricians that is EV chargers and panel upgrades. We map your mix against local search demand and find the gaps competitors are missing.
Week 3-4
Launch service-tier campaigns
Separate campaigns for high-value services (EV chargers, panel upgrades, rewiring) and bread-and-butter work (outlets, switches, lighting). Each gets its own landing page with license badges, service detail, and a booking flow that matches the job.
Month 2
EV and panel upgrade content
Service pages targeting "EV charger installation cost [city]" and "200 amp panel upgrade near me." These emerging keywords have low competition and growing volume. Google Business Profile gets completed-project photos and weekly posts.
Month 3
Local rankings and lead flow
Service-area pages live for your top cities. Automated post-job review requests running. By month three, campaigns have clear data on which services and areas pay back best, and organic rankings start to move.
What we see
Marketing mistakes we see from electricians
One campaign covering all electrical services
When a $150 outlet repair and a $5,000 panel upgrade share one campaign, Google sends budget to the high-volume low-value service calls. Your most profitable work (panel upgrades, EV chargers, rewires) gets scraps. You end up booking small jobs when the same truck roll could land $5,000-plus projects.
Separate campaigns by service tier. High-value projects (panel, EV, rewires) get dedicated budget. Emergency calls get a controlled budget. Residential project work runs as a third tier. Allocate spend to your highest-margin services.
No EV charger or panel upgrade content on the website
EV charger and panel upgrade searches are growing 40 to 60% year over year. Electricians with no content for them are invisible for the fastest-growing segment of electrical work. A competitor who builds the page now owns the category in your market within months.
Dedicated landing pages for EV charger installation and panel upgrades. Include cost information, permit requirements, what to expect during install, and rebate details. Ads targeting those keywords in your service area.
Same website section for residential and commercial
A homeowner needing recessed lighting and a property manager needing a tenant improvement have different needs, budgets, and criteria. On one generic "Electrical Services" page, neither sees what they came for. Both bounce.
Separate sections for residential and commercial with different messaging, project images, certifications, and conversion actions. Homeowners see residential galleries. Property managers see commercial scope, licensing, and capacity.
Electricians building EV charger and panel upgrade landing pages right now will own those categories for the next five years. Search volume is growing fast and competition is still low.

Competition is moderate in most markets, which means results come faster than in trades like roofing or HVAC.
