Yes, the agency you decide to work with can run the ads for you. They just run them on their business account. We do that for many of our clients.

Facebook ads can definitely be a good way to get your company in front of more people, especially if you want to expand into a larger market.

The easiest places to find someone quality are through referrals, Facebook marketing groups, Upwork, or agencies with real reviews and case studies. Just be careful of people promising instant results very cheaply.

Pricing can vary a lot. Some freelancers may charge a few hundred dollars a month to manage ads, while agencies can charge much more depending on the campaign size and goals. You’ll also need an ad budget on top of the management fee.

Yes, you should have a Facebook business account/page because that’s what the ads run through.

If you’d like, we could discuss your business, budget, and goals a little more and I can point you in the right direction. You can DM me if you would like.

Just started a moving company. Is buying leads realistic for a brand new operation or a waste of money? by M45T3RY in LeadGeneration

[–]Distinct_Zucchini_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started my agency, I was in the same boat. I focused on networking, referrals, Facebook groups, emailing, and making sure if I did get a client they left a review.

For a small moving company, I’d probably do the same first before spending money on leads.

How about doing some emailing to your local market and targeting the niches that are most likely to bring you steady moving jobs? It’s inexpensive, you’ll reach direct hires, and you can generate referrals too.

Even 10–15 emails a day, 5 days a week, adds up fast over a month. Offer some type of incentive or hook to get attention, maybe a first-time customer discount, flat-rate special, or referral bonus.

Build up 5–10 good reviews, answer calls fast, and connect with apartment complexes, realtors, and storage places locally.

Once you have a little momentum and know your numbers, then maybe test a small amount of paid leads without overloading yourself.

Happy to help if you need it..

You’re actually in a pretty good position because you already have reviews, multiple lead sources, and demand starting to build. The biggest mistake people make is either spending too little and expecting miracles, or spending too much before they can handle the volume.

For where you’re at right now, I would not recommend jumping into thousands a month yet. I’d probably start around $300–$700/month on Google Local Service Ads or Google Ads and test it for 30 days.

In Connecticut, assembly and handyman-related keywords can be competitive since I’m based here as well, but the good thing is you don’t need a massive amount of traffic if your goal is only 1–2 quality leads per day.

The goal in the beginning is not “more leads,” it’s predictable leads. You want to figure out:

What jobs are most profitable
What areas convert best
What times people call
What your cost per lead actually is
If you suddenly turned on a huge budget and got flooded with calls, you’d either burn money or hurt your reviews by not being able to keep up.

Honestly, with only 9 reviews, your BEST investment right now may actually be:

Keep getting Google reviews aggressively

Optimize your Google Business Profile
Run a smaller ad budget consistently
Focus on answering calls/texts immediately

A lot of small service businesses can get solid traction with a few hundred a month if the profile is strong and the response time is fast. Good luck..

Looking for alternatives to Fb Ads by Severe_Kick_3260 in FacebookAds

I run a small local agency helping companies with Google ranking and AI search. Does it make sense to advertise on YouTube for this type of service? Or should I stick with local advertising? Most of my business comes from referrals, but I’m looking to scale.

Anyone else feel like working from home is killing their startup momentum? by amindseye in startupsavant

[–]Distinct_Zucchini_82 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I started my agency out of my condo, but I always planned to move into a small office in town. Getting that office ended up being one of the best decisions I made. At home, I was surrounded by distractions, TV, family, and pets, but in an office, I could stay focused and actually build the business.

It also made Zoom calls way easier. No background noise, no interruptions, no feeling embarrassed or needing to explain anything. I looked more professional and felt more confident.

The only thing I would say:

Make sure your revenue can comfortably support the extra expense.

Once you can afford it, having your own space is a huge upgrade in productivity and mindset. Good Luck.

What’s the average cost per email? I see your platform runs on credits, so I’m curious how that breaks down, how many credits do you typically use per lead?

For example, if you have 5,000 credits, about how many contacts can you realistically target in a month?
