Advertising for electricians in New Zealand

The best place for an electrician to advertise is wherever the customer is at the moment they decide they need one: standing in a lighting store or an appliance store, holding the thing they now need somebody to wire in. In practice that means a lighting store, an appliance store and a kitchen showroom. A counter card, a window poster or a screen in one of those, in your own district, is seen by exactly the people who are about to look for an electrician, and usually costs less than advertising to a whole suburb.

Questions people ask

Where is the best place for an electrician to advertise?

Inside the local businesses your customers visit at the moment they need you. For an electrician that is usually a lighting store, an appliance store and a kitchen showroom. A counter display or a window poster there costs less than most other advertising and reaches the right person at the right moment.

How much does it cost an electrician to advertise locally?

Advertising space in local New Zealand businesses is listed on Pritty Ghood from about $55 a week, with the price on the listing being the price you pay. Google Ads and radio usually cost a few hundred dollars a month or more, and a community newspaper advertisement is priced per insertion.

How long should an electrician run an advertisement?

Run it for eight weeks at least. Tradie work is decided over weeks, not days: the person sees you on the first trip to the merchant and rings on the third. A season-long placement in one busy merchant usually beats a month each in four.

What should an electrician put on an advertisement?

Name the one job you want more of, not the whole list. "Heat pump installs, quoted in 24 hours" brings in heat pump installs. "All electrical work" brings in nothing in particular. Put the phone number large, the suburbs you cover, and a QR code that goes to a page with your prices or a booking form.
