Home service marketing experts outline the importance of a good business reputation at AHR Expo

Levergy and Ripley PR CEOs will discuss how home service companies can become the go-to experts in their local markets

KNOXVILLE, Tenn., Jan. 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Leading home service marketing experts Ryan Redding, CEO of Levergy, and Heather Ripley, CEO of Ripley PR, will join forces at AHR Expo in Orlando on Tuesday, Feb. 11, to discuss how targeted public relations and marketing can turn home service companies into the most trusted names in their local markets.

The industry-leading convention for HVACR professionals will be held Feb. 10-12 at the Orange County Convention Center. Redding and Ripley's seminar, "Beyond Google: Becoming the Go-To Name in Home Services," will be held at 8:30 a.m. in room W312C in the convention center's west building.

"One of the ways that home service companies can elevate their brand is to become their community's local experts," Redding said. "Homeowners want to know the people they entrust with their home comfort systems are knowledgeable and are respected in their communities. Home service companies need to learn how to integrate their online presence with offline credibility. This seminar will help them learn how to achieve that goal."

Redding is the founder and CEO of Levergy, a leading digital marketing agency serving the plumbing and HVAC industry since 2016. He is also the host of the Blue Collar CEO podcast and author of "The Book on Digital Marketing for Plumbing and HVAC Contractors."

"Most home service company owners understand the importance of SEO, but there is more to standing out from your competition than simply being first in an online search," Ripley said. "You also need to be the first company people think of when they need HVAC service. This requires a public relations and marketing plan that helps you build a stellar reputation and fosters top-of-mind awareness in your community."

Ripley is the founder and CEO of Ripley PR, an award-winning public relations agency specializing in the home service, franchising, manufacturing and B2B industries. She is also the author of "Next Level Now: PR Secrets to Drive Explosive Growth for Your Home Service Business."
