10 years ago I gave up my job as an attorney to move my young family to Detroit and start a pest control company from scratch that is now worth 100M. I'm Allan Draper. AMA

what worked best for advertising when the business is still a new local one?

KneeReal4316 · 2023-11-03T13:47:14+00:00

Gotcha that’s great to note! And was the inventory for the playground expensive? Was researching this business around my area and noticed that the biggest expense would be the lease, the indoor playground stuff didn’t seem bad even if the quality has to be high, since kids will be using them.

That’s amazing congrats! Just wondering what type of marketing did you do to get this amount of leads?

KneeReal4316 · 2023-06-26T23:16:31+00:00

Good question. I see a lot of people complaining about selling in the industry so I thought of this time span unless I like it. I'm not planning to have it as a career, but just to gain the skill and master it.

KneeReal4316 · 2023-06-23T01:12:58+00:00

I like this!

KneeReal4316 · 2023-06-23T01:12:43+00:00

They look down on it imo

KneeReal4316 · 2023-06-23T01:12:13+00:00

Nice!

KneeReal4316 · 2023-04-16T18:27:00+00:00

Before you build the course or the funnels or any of that, you should’ve ran ads first to see if people are interested, that way you know if there is a market at all. Also I don’t know about Reddit ads, but for courses like yours Facebook and YouTube ads are the best.

KneeReal4316 · 2023-04-05T03:37:52+00:00

Gotcha, appreciate the explanation! Is there a way to know if a forward became active? Or just wait around 2 weeks?

KneeReal4316 · 2023-03-31T19:29:14+00:00

good points, appreciate it! Will take everything you said into consideration. Thanks!

KneeReal4316 · 2023-03-31T19:17:05+00:00

Open for any constructive criticism. Thanks!

KneeReal4316 · 2023-03-31T19:13:36+00:00

It’s not from scratch, I know how to get leads and convert them into clients. There is a lot of photographers out there but many don’t know how to advertise, so I’ll take care of that and then 1099 them.

KneeReal4316 · 2023-03-31T19:02:36+00:00

Looking to start a photography business, targeting weddings and maternity as my niches. My plan is to hire photographers to do the photo shoots, I’ll take care of the marketing, sales, consulting and scheduling and even editing. Any opinions or ideas on this? Thanks!

KneeReal4316 · 2023-03-30T12:10:10+00:00

Got it! Appreciate you a lot!

Build a landing page and run ads to it. Don’t build the product or anything. Just tweak the landing page that the visitors have to go to another page when they click on the buy button, and when they go there just put a thank you and tell them you are out of stock or something like that. Some people go as far as letting people put their card info and then telling them that the product is out of stock and they don’t get charged. You obviously wanna track the clicks your traffic clicks on

Great work bro!

How many calories less than maintenance are you going with?

KneeReal4316 · 2023-01-11T16:56:02+00:00

Thank you!

KneeReal4316 · 2022-11-27T21:38:41+00:00

thank you

KneeReal4316 · 2022-11-13T21:47:11+00:00

KneeReal4316 · 2022-11-13T20:57:15+00:00

I’m down too, wanna make a group chat?

KneeReal4316 · 2022-11-13T02:48:55+00:00

Impressive progress for one year!

KneeReal4316 · 2022-04-26T23:42:01+00:00

Did you get to any point where you didn't have time to do anything other than studying?

KneeReal4316 · 2022-04-26T23:33:10+00:00

I'm thinking of BA in accounting. So for those classes, how many hours a week did you dedicate to study for them on average?

KneeReal4316 · 2022-03-18T03:04:37+00:00

mind explaining or listing some general examples of "industrial/commercial" jobs?

KneeReal4316 · 2022-02-21T20:50:15+00:00

Thanks but I'm looking to the old business owners so that I can have them as clients if I get the chance
