background
The challenge
When account manager James Smith first met Matthew Currie, owner of Rox Electrical, the business was small – just three people – and Matthew had never invested in digital marketing before. Like many electricians, he was cautious about the spend, relying on word of mouth to bring in jobs.
But Matthew had bigger ambitions: to dominate Edinburgh and East Lothian, win more profitable electrical work, strengthen his brand, and generate a steady flow of local leads.
“Yell has been massive for my business. I was recommended by a friend and I’ve never regretted it. In just 12 months my business has grown astronomically. I’ve expanded my workforce, strengthened my brand, and become well known across East Lothian. Onwards and upwards – BOOM! – all thanks to Jay and Yell.”
