Social media has great potential for a construction company. Having a great social media marketing strategy will help your construction business achieve its digital goals. Socinova is a specialized social media marketing agency for construction companies and consultants. We offer affordable social media management plans which can help you grow your chances of getting quality leads along with establishing a strong online presence.
Why do you need social media marketing for your construction business?
Social media usage worldwide is rapidly increasing, now with more than 3.5 billion social media users globally. Social media marketing for construction companies can help your brand reach new and existing audiences. Construction companies & consultants can leverage the free brand exposure by publishing quality content and engaging with their followers. In this digital environment, social media has become an integral part of our daily routine. Millennials (born between 1981-1996) at 90.4% are using social media the most, followed by Generation X (born between 1965-1980) at 77.5% and Boomers (born between 1946-1964) at 48.2%. These numbers suggest that social media is now intrinsic in daily life in all age groups.
Construction companies need social media management & marketing as a medium to bring a valuable conversation for their audiences and share important messages about the projects and news. Social media platforms have a huge audience for your construction brand that you might struggle to reach via other means.
Investing in a social strategy
We have also found that the same people using social media at their leisure, looking for memes and cat videos are also the ones working as investors, buyers, financers and professionals that might be interested in a good brand in the construction business. That brand could be you. So, building a positive brand perception is important to catch their attention. Posting quality content will build free exposure to help investors make a better decision. Your social media strategy should include:
- Press releases
- Website content
- Consistent tone of voice
- Building your brand image
- Sharing behind the scene photos
- Job opportunities
Though not exhaustive, this strategy will create an engaging social feed and give a reassurance to your investors that you are moving in the right direction. Social content also has the benefit of attracting new candidates for recruitment purposes, which suggests growth and a bright future of your construction company.

Graphical Content Always Wins
TV channels were one of the most popular media networks for a reason – people love to see how other people behave and live. The times changed and so did the media platforms. Now people love to see other people on social media, and they try to imitate their lives. Your construction company can show off your photos on social media and make people fall in love with your brand. We have a team of creative designers who know how to deliver high-quality content for your brand. For a remodeling business, we take a step further, and we can work together for an extra wow factor. Anyhow, decorating your social media profile is on us, and we share your best image there.

We know you are not like every other contractor. Your construction brand needs to be a game changer. This is why we collect basic information from you and share industry news, trends, and your innovations through reputable sources. Press releases are what we like and your potential customers love. News and insights into your business will keep your image fresh as a thought leader, and they will help you gain more clients who only want to work with the best of the best.
Awards and Accolades
Awards are on your way because you passionately do what you do. It will not hurt your brand if you proudly showcase them on your digital platforms. We ensure people notice to any accolade your business earns by spreading good words about you.
Contests to Improve Engagement
What’s the best way to get new followers? Hosting a social media contest is not what usually a construction business does, but for you, we can create a specialized contest that will help you get more followers, improve engagement with your current followers and so much more. Encouraging your followers to like, comment, and share your content for giveaways and branded merchandise. You will get free PR and your followers will get free stuff. It’s a win-win. To make this more meaningful, we can even connect this contest with a philanthropic cause. Contests will help you establish your construction business as your industry’s go-to contractor while doing good for the community.
Testimonials
Feedback, reviews, and testimonials are growth boosters for your construction business. The power of testimonials is beyond doubt positive for your brand. So, you don’t want to bury them somewhere on your website. We create a special appearance of the testimonials and reviews by your clients on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, LinkedIn, and YouTube.
Blog Posts and Other Self-Produced Content
Again, blogs, articles and case studies are a great way to promote your brand as a thought leader in your industry. Some serious investors and buyers want to read more about what you are offering. Blogs and long articles will serve the right purpose. Moreover, blogs and articles will help you gain more traction in search performance.
