McHenry County
Lake in the Hills Marketing
Fast growing McHenry County suburb built around several small lakes with a general aviation airport and Randall Road retail corridor nearby. Local demand tends to cycle through search before it reaches a call or a form, so the businesses that show up early see the market before it reaches everyone else. The service area for most Lake in the Hills businesses reaches into Algonquin and Crystal Lake, so the marketing plan has to think about the whole footprint.
