Case study

The Repair Hub Kent: Case Study

The Repair Hub opened in January 2024 with zero marketing and a brand-new website: no backlinks and no SEO budget.

This was a pure test of how quickly a completely new business could grow using reviews as its only marketing.

The strategy

The Repair Hub Kent Strategy

Focus on Google Reviews

We focused on Google reviews, with Facebook as a secondary platform, and aimed to get as many reviews as possible mentioning the service the customer used, for example “PS5 Repair”, “PS5 HDMI Repair” and “Xbox Repair”.

Tap to Review Points

We made it as simple as possible for customers to leave a review, and made sure the service was one people were happy with! With Tap to Review stands and cards at the point of purchase, and links sent by WhatsApp, it’s easy for clients to leave feedback.

Ask for Reviews

Many businesses don’t like asking for reviews, or feel it isn’t good business. But if you give great service, people are happy to leave a review when asked naturally, especially to support a local business. Our strategy works, and this is the proof.

Top keywords

“PS5 Repair”

The main keyword for this business was PS5 HDMI repairs, a high-revenue, high-profit keyword for the Repair Hub. Within 3 months it was ranking number 1 in the local map pack for this keyword, and after 12 months it was generating thousands of pounds of revenue every month fixing PS5s.

At the time of writing it has 30 five-star reviews. Most importantly, the team are consistent about asking, and most of the reviews mention “PS5” in some form.

This is super powerful and can lift you above your competitors. We have all the tools to help your business in the same way.
