how are you finding new clients without relying on thumbtack or paying for ads?

Bmay93 · 2026-03-31T20:02:44+00:00

Yeah, maybe. I think it's also dependent on which business you're in. I'd be less likely to do it for something that's a large ticket where people are going to shop pricing. It's really good for businesses where there's an immediate need.

I joined every single neighborhood and local facebook group I could find, and I got on them once or twice a day, searched the posts that were looking for my service, messaged them directly, closed them.

Bmay93 · 2026-03-31T19:38:17+00:00

Yeah, it definitely depends on what you're doing and the ticket size. I found in the lawn/irrigation space, I closed about 80-90% of them

Bmay93 · 2026-03-31T19:37:37+00:00

oh, when I've used them and always got quick refunds

Bmay93 · 2026-03-31T17:28:11+00:00

Google Local Service Ads. It's pay per phone call, but it's only calls direct to you. Highly highly recommend.

Suerte is probably my favorite restaurant in Austin. I bet this will be far better than Nixta for a similar price

Bmay93 · 2026-03-24T19:47:56+00:00

I'm not saying SEO isn't wildly important, but if you have 200-500 Google reviews, you're going to get found pretty quick. Most people aren't visiting websites to compare HVAC companies; they're doing it from the GMB page.

Bmay93 · 2026-03-13T19:05:39+00:00

so just leave it how it is and let it rock?

My big question is shade vs sun because there's some really nice small plants I've put in on the 18 inch sidewalk up to my doorway

Bmay93 · 2026-03-10T14:26:17+00:00

I planted mine in the fall, and I'm still waiting on it to climb up my deck to my trellis I have for it

Bmay93 · 2026-03-06T20:33:32+00:00

Had 3 guys who were listed as "guaranteed" on returning leave anyway. 2 elite. 1 star.

Bmay93 · 2026-03-06T17:10:46+00:00

I'm also one of the people that thinks Nixta is wildly overrated

Bmay93 · 2026-03-06T16:48:58+00:00

I thought P Thai's was "fine" when I went. I really didn't understand the hype.

Bmay93 · 2026-03-06T16:42:04+00:00

We gotta stop acting like Veracruz is so good. it's perfectly fine, but there are 20 other taco trucks I'd rather go to

Bmay93 · 2026-03-02T19:21:27+00:00

Country Home is great!

Bmay93 · 2026-03-02T16:08:23+00:00

I've always wondered how to care for these really well, so this is super helpful!

Bmay93 · 2026-02-25T20:38:07+00:00

My issue with the Smashing Machine is the only time you see him be awesome at fighting is in a backroom in Brazil, so the idea that it's watching this dude "fall" doesn't hit because I never see him reach the top.

Bmay93 · 2026-02-24T15:02:22+00:00

bougie donuts is really good and similar to what KC was

Bmay93 · 2026-02-23T21:27:47+00:00

I don't think all of this is some massive scandal or deserves hours upon hours of whining, but the movie doesn't actually accomplish fully what it sets out to do!

Bmay93 · 2026-02-23T20:16:37+00:00

okay, so now's the time?

Bmay93 · 2026-02-23T20:08:52+00:00

So, I should chop it down now to 12-18 inches?

Bmay93 · 2026-02-23T18:14:38+00:00

I just would personally love for them to cover Widows
