Industrial Website Mistakes That Kill Conversion and How to Fix Them

Most industrial sites fail for simple reasons. Fix these first to increase booked calls without a full redesign.

Mistake 1 weak proof

Thin galleries, no case pages, and generic stock photos. Add real photos with surface prep notes and outcomes.

Mistake 2 friction in forms

Too many fields or unclear next steps. Ask only what you need to qualify and show a scheduling option after submit.

Mistake 3 no tracking

Missing GA4 events for submit, booking, file upload, and calls. Add a single dashboard so sales and marketing see the same numbers.

Mistake 4 buried CTAs

Phone and booking options hidden or only on the contact page. Add CTAs to every service and industry page.

Mistake 5 slow follow up

No reminders, no call script, and no ownership. Use your CRM to route by service and region with alerts.
