90-day online marketing plan
Bytecore Technologies
Bytecore Technologies will turn searches for IT support, networks, cloud and cyber security into calls by being the easiest firm to ask for help, explaining each service in plain words and becoming the name that accountants and office fit-out firms pass on.
More calls and enquiries · Under 100 US dollars a month
Your three priorities
Build a website with a page for each service and a help request form that asks which business, what is not working and how many people are affected, because people search at the moment something has already gone wrong.
Complete a Google Business Profile with your service area, hours and photos of your team and a finished installation, so a search for IT support near me shows a firm that looks established and close by.
Become the name that accountants, office fit-out firms and insurance brokers pass on when a client asks who looks after their IT, with a clear one-page summary of what you do and for whom.

Your channels, in order
Website and Google search Medium effort · Low cost
People search when something has stopped working, so a page for each service and a request form that is easy to find bring the right calls.
- Write a page each for IT support, managed IT services, office network setup, cloud migration, cyber security and custom software, using the search phrases in this plan.
- Put your phone number and a help request form on every page, and say when someone answers and what happens next.
- Explain each service in plain words, with what is included, what is extra and what the client needs to do.
Google Business Profile Low effort · Free
Searchers for IT support near me are shown a map before anything else, and a complete listing with reviews tells a worried office manager that you are close and real.
- Set IT support and services as the main category, then add each other service you offer and enter your service area and hours.
- Upload photos of your team, your van and a finished installation, with no client names or screens in view.
- Ask clients to review the support they received, and reply to each review in plain words.
Accountants, fit-out firms and insurance brokers Medium effort · Low cost
A small business often asks its accountant or a fit-out firm who looks after IT, so a good relationship with a few of them brings steady introductions.
- Visit local accountants, office fit-out firms and insurance brokers with a one-page summary of what you do, for whom and what you do not do.
- Put together a one-page guide for their clients, and offer to speak at a client evening if they hold them.
- Reply to every introduction within the day, and tell the referrer afterwards how it went, with the client's consent.
LinkedIn Medium effort · Free
Office managers, directors and owners use it for work, and a clear company page makes an introduction easy to check.
- Set up a company page that lists your services and the kinds of business you support, then add the owner and the lead engineer.
- Connect with office managers and directors of local firms, with a short note about what you do.
- Share one plain tip a week on a common risk, without naming any client or system.
Email Low effort · Free
Support clients and past enquirers act when a reminder lands at the right time, such as before the holidays or when a laptop is getting old.
- Collect email addresses, with permission, from every client, enquiry and event.
- Send a short note before the holiday season and at the start of each quarter, with one practical task and the number to ring.
Local business networks and talks Medium effort · Low cost
Owners remember the person who explained something clearly in a room, and they often phone that person first when something goes wrong.
- Offer a short, practical talk to local business networks on who to call and what to write down when something stops working.
- Hand out a one-page summary with your phone number and the first three things to check.
- Follow up anyone who asked a question within a few days.
What your website needs
- A home page that leads with IT support for businesses in your area, a call button and the help request form.
- A business computer support page covering how to ask for help, when someone answers, remote and on-site visits and what happens next.
- A managed IT services page explaining monitoring, updates, backups and a named contact, with what is included and what costs extra.
- An office network setup page for new offices and moves, covering cabling, wireless coverage and a survey before work starts.
- A cloud migration services page explaining how files and email are moved, when staff may notice a change and what they are told beforehand.
- A cyber security services page covering checks, backups and staff habits, with a plain statement that no firm can promise a business will never be attacked.
- A custom software development page for businesses whose processes do not fit ready-made tools, with how a project is scoped and delivered.
