Florida Hurricane & Storm Marketing
In Florida, storms aren’t a rare event to react to. Hurricane season comes round every year, and each storm changes what homeowners search for, how many of them need help at once, and who they’re willing to trust. Advertising has to change with it: before a storm, while it passes, and in the weeks of recovery after. At Riley Summers, we adjust Florida campaigns through each of those stages, so the business is found for the work it can take on and stands apart from the out-of-state crews that follow a storm in.

Storms can potentially bring the biggest swings in demand a Florida home services business will see. A campaign built to change with them spends where the business can deliver, and keeps homeowners’ trust at the moment they’re most wary of who they let in.
