Scaling Local Visibility & Lead Flow Across Dozens of Franchisees with a National Drywall Repair Franchise

1. The Challenge

A national drywall repair franchise needed to bridge the gap between strong national brand recognition and the varied digital marketing needs of its independently owned territories.

With more than 100 locations across North America, the franchise faced several challenges common to growing home-service brands:

  • Inconsistent or inactive local social media presence
  • Franchisees with limited digital marketing experience
  • No centralized performance tracking or content optimization system
  • A need to efficiently onboard new franchisees and support established ones

The corporate team partnered with MyBFF Social to develop a scalable, repeatable program that could:

  • Drive local brand visibility, engagement, and lead generation
  • Provide coaching and implementation support tailored to franchisees
  • Manage Meta™ and Google™ ad campaigns to ensure return on spend

Centralize reporting across the system to track and optimize performance
