WHAT IS TRADEBOX?
TradeBox is a platform designed to completely remove the stress and headache that comes with juggling a million and one different online services just to keep your business moving.
We simplify this but combining every online service you need to run (and grow) your business into a single, easy to use platform.
So let's breakdown what you can do with TradeBox:
COMMUNICATION
We know how messy communication gets in construction. You call, they email back, you reply with a text or WhatsApp. Stuff gets lost very easily.
TradeBox allows you to keep all of your communication channels in one place. That's including phone, email, WhatsApp and SMS.
Every contact has its own log of ALL communication, so you'll never lose anything again (or give clients the same excuse).
WEBSITE
Having a website is essential if you want your business to stay relevant.
We can host and build your website through the TradeBox platform, allowing quick and easy access to make changes and updates as you need.
We can also get you a domain and professional business email address if you don't have these already.
First impressions matter, and we can make yours memorable.
P.S: This page is built in TradeBox 😉
SALES AND LEADS
How many times have you missed a call because you're busy on site, only to call the customer back that evening and they've gone with someone else?
We can help you automate and systemise your sales process so that all those leads stop falling through the net.
In addition, our full sales tracker and dashboard will automatically update and let you know just how much money you've got sat in the pipeline, your conversion rates, profitability and more.
SOCIAL MEDIA
I can hear the groans already 🤣
As much as we all hate it, social media is essential if you want your business to have an online presence.
It's the modern day window shopping and when a customer wants to check out who you are and what your work looks like, they WILL go on social media to do it.
But we know that posting on every platform is a ball ache, so TradeBox allows you to post to multiple platforms at once and schedule as many posts as you like in one hit.
AUTOMATION
It's so easy to forget the little stuff when you're busy on the tools or managing the guys on site.
So, we take that stress away completely and can automate the daily chores.
For example, we can automate appointment reminders, invoice chasing, enquiry replies and pretty much anything else you can think of.
REVIEWS
Everyone looks at reviews. You do it, so why do you think your customers don't?
Regular review collection can make your business beyond anything else.
We take care of this for you with an entire section of TradeBox dedicated to reputation managent.
Oh, and we can automate review collection and replies too (so that's another thing you can forget about).
PAID ADS
It doesn't matter what your SEO guy has been telling you - you cannot beat paid ads if you want regular new customers.
We can run your paid ads on both social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram as well as Google Ads.
We'll come clean - we can't run the actual ads from inside TradeBox - but we can make sure you're set up right so that you don't miss any leads and handle them in a way that wins you their business like clockwork.
MARKETING
Marketing goes beyond just paid advertising.
TradeBox offers you a platform to run full marketing campaigns across Google, social media, email, SMS and more.
For example, if you're a gardener and you know that your customers need a lawn mow every 4 weeks - we can help you advertise and win the business, remind customers to re-book and win back business on repeat.
Clever eh.

WHY TRADEBOX?
Yo - I'm Marcus, founder of TradeBox.
I thought Id' give you a little bit of my background and how that helps you and your business.
If it wasn't obvious enough from the picture, I have a long history working in the construction industry. I worked with my family's steel erecting business on and off since I was 16. To start with, through school, collage and uni holidays, but then full time for 8 years. During my time as a steel erector I also operated as an Appointed Person and Lift Supervisor as well as completing a Masters Degree in Building Surveying (having previously studied Law and Criminology).
It's safe to say I was maybe a bit over-qualified, but I f*cking loved the job.
At the same time, I was running handling all of the digital marketing, website and advertising for the business. We went from being essentially a large team of subcontractors to actually supplying 3 of the South East's main steel fabricators with the majority of their work.
Ultimately though, my love for marketing took over and I ended up going solo and setting up my agency.
Construction has and always will be the industry I love working in the most and so now, TradeBox is the platform I provide to help other small and medium sized construction businesses establish an online presence and start to really scale.
I'll be shameless and say I am probably one of the only marketing agency owners in the UK that has had an established career in construction. And, youd do well to find anyone else who understands and loves the industry like I do.
So, if you're looking for someone to help you take your business online and give you the systems to scale - you're in the right place.
