The Challenge
What Phone Gear Leigh faced before PowerDevs Digital
No Professional Online Presence
No dedicated website to showcase services, location, or customer testimonials. Potential customers couldn't find key information online, limiting discovery and credibility.
Minimal Social Media Activity
Limited social media presence with no consistent content strategy. Missing opportunities to engage local audiences and build community awareness.
Reliant on Walk-ins & Word-of-Mouth
No structured marketing strategy. Unpredictable customer flow with no way to systematically reach local audiences actively seeking mobile repair services.
Our Transformation Story
What Delivered
A comprehensive digital transformation strategy
Website Development
The Problem
Phone Gear Leigh had no professional website. Potential customers couldn’t find them online, learn about services, view pricing, or book repairs. Missing this online touchpoint meant lost opportunities.
The Solution
We built a modern, mobile-friendly website showcasing repair services, refurbished phones, and accessories. Clear service pages, customer testimonials, and easy contact options transformed it into a 24/7 digital storefront driving online-to-offline conversions.
Content Creation & Social Media
The Problem
Minimal social media presence with no consistent content strategy. The shop wasn’t leveraging platforms where local customers discover businesses, particularly younger audiences seeking phone repairs.
The Solution
We established consistent Facebook and Instagram presence with high-quality content including repair tutorials, before/after transformations, product showcases, and local promotions. Regular posting and community engagement built trust and local visibility.
Paid Advertising Campaigns
The Problem
Reliant entirely on walk-ins and word-of-mouth with no structured advertising strategy. Unpredictable footfall meant difficulty planning inventory and staffing.
The Solution
We launched highly targeted Facebook and Instagram ads focused on Leigh and surrounding areas. Geographic targeting, compelling creative, and local promotion offers successfully drove walk-in customers actively seeking phone repair services.
