Watson Hire
With one of the largest ranges of tools, hardware and hire equipment available in Donegal, Watson Hire is the go-to place for DIY enthusiasts and professionals.
In the past year the business has greatly increased online sales through social media campaigns and Google Ad words. However, Watson Hire really stands out for its quirky live videos with John himself highlighting products and services in store.
With average viewing figures of 30,000, the increase of in-store footfall has resulted in a 200% sales growth year on year. He’s not quite a movie star yet but this new marketing strategy is certainly paying off.
