Driving leads for NARI members and raising awareness of NARI members to consumers. This campaign was designed to reinforce the benefits of choosing a NARI member, showcasing the importance of honesty, trust and dependability, which is even more important than ever in these distressful economic times.
There are print and web ads that will drive readers to NARI branded web pages for in-depth information, web based videos (to be posted on YouTube and other video sites) about the importance of using a NARI member, and to search for NARI members by location and specialty. Search engine optimization (SEO) tactics have also been built in to the campaign.
The web pages are optimized so that, for instance, a homeowner searching for “Remodeler Philadelphia area” will be brought to a web page where they will find NARI members in the Philadelphia area by specialty and zip code.The page is designed to come up toward the top of an online search so the user can find NARI members first for their remodeling needs.
On the national level, these ads will appear both in print and online utilizing special interest shelter magazines.Locally, chapters should use the ads in publications and web properties where they advertise.
We are utilizing both online ads and search engine optimization tactics to drive the remodel ready homeowner to pages where they will find NARI members.
Yes, and are encouraged to use them. All the ads are designed to be customized for local use. Chapter use will help strengthen the impact of the NARI message, and ultimately, our collective results.

These entertaining yet educational videos showcase NARI’s high Standards of Practice, Code of Ethics, ongoing education and customer testimonials.We will encourage all chapters and members to use the NARI “Living” logo on their own websites, which includes an embedded link to these videos.
