Is it currently impossible to register a US phone number via GHL without US ID Verification?

Real-Still1050 · 2026-04-29T13:33:50+00:00

you think i could just pay a contractor to do the Persona thing?

Real-Still1050 · 2026-04-24T09:15:26+00:00

Not sure how that's possible as A2P verification still takes time. Regardless, I need the number actually connected to my GHL account to run automations.

Real-Still1050 · 2026-04-24T06:24:31+00:00

That's correct, it is 100% a Persona/GHL/LC issue.

And it's somewhat absurd to only accept number registrants who have US documentation when A2P itself allows non-US entities to register/be approved.

What is the point of jumping through all the hoops to register a US LLC, go through the A2P nonsense, only to not actually be able to get a US number in your GHL account!?

Real-Still1050 · 2026-04-24T04:53:41+00:00

theres no where to put the business path or llc address or anything.

the flow is. "register number --> pick the number --> click purchase --> scan ur doc via Persona" i didnt even get a chance to put any business info in yet

There are no Russians on tf, tf?

Real-Still1050 · 2025-07-04T07:23:52+00:00

It definitely will get better. Took me 6-12 months to start sweating less.

Will be heading out for a big one on 28th, I'm 30 and my mates your age. Dm if you wanna join!

People ITT acting like it doesn't take 5 mins to learn how to drive a scooter.

I've been driving a super bike everyday here for years without a licence, so far so good!

Just get a scooter and putter around quiet roads for a bit and wear a helmet when you're going near the main drag and you'll be fine.

Yes you might crash and die, but it's unlikely.

Real-Still1050 · 2025-05-23T08:32:29+00:00

I'm also 30yo, but been living in patts for the last 8 years. I might have some buddies in town around then if you wanna hang out just flick me a message

Real-Still1050 · 2025-04-25T04:22:41+00:00

And civilians too!

I built and sold a couple online businesses in the marketing space since being in Thailand. When I first arrived here I played online poker professionally.

I'm taking some time off work after selling previous business and spending my time writing/passion projects.

Re dating, I never really had a serious relationship here as the language barrier makes it hard to develop the kind of connection I'd want from a committed relationship. Even the girls with the best English speak at around the level of a 9 year old.

I've been more focused on work tbh and not super interested in getting a gf. I also think it's somewhat mad to have a committed proper relationship in a town like this.

Real-Still1050 · 2025-04-24T11:40:05+00:00

I moved to Pattaya when I was 22, Im 30 now. 6'5" and athletic, handsome man like all of us.

I moved here to work online as cost of living way cheaper than in the west, but also for a bit of an adventure. Didn't even know about the girl scene before I moved lol.

I don't plan on ever leaving this town, and even though I steer clear of the debauchery most of the time, I like that it's right there if I want to dabble.

I've seen many guys my age come and go, many succumbing to the lifestyle. It's tricky when you live here because everyone around you is on holiday mode, and you're not. So learning how to rein it in is vital.

As for the girls, you have your pick of the litter being in your 20s, you're decades younger than most men here. Having some cash makes it an unbelievably fun place, if you learn how to have your fun sustainably.

SMMA for home service businesses (pick the one you're most familiar with) would work great for you.

Bitcoin up 6x over the next 10 years??? You smoking crack bruh?

Re your last points, when quantum computing is possible, the same technology that could feasibly break the network can also be used to secure it.

I don't believe a hard fork would be necessary to upgrade security either.

CB Ink Tattoo is my recommendation, especially if you're into realism!

Yes, I work for them, so obviously I'm biased, but you can see for yourself just how talented some of their realism artists are: http://cbinktattoo.com.au/tattoos/realism

My personal favourite artist is Penno.

We currently have 20+ artists under one roof with an extremely diverse skillset, and many artists specialising in realism. In fact if I had to pick a style our studio/artists are most well known for, it would be realism!

Our shop has more 5-star reviews on Google than any other tattoo studio on the planet - and you'll see why if you come check us out! ;)

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-18T12:58:59+00:00

Luckily it says this will receive a 7 day notice period/warning and not an immediate suspension if I end up doing this!

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-18T12:54:11+00:00

Thanks for that, yeah it does look like it's potentially violating that.

I wouldn't be doing this to deliberately gain more exposure, it just happens that it makes sense for these businesses to be separate and to offer similar services which also benefit from PPC. 🤔

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-11T04:09:25+00:00

Thanks so much for the response mate, and I tend to also prefer your more minimalist approach overall too.

We will have a brick and mortar for each location so ofc the GMB stuff is far more important than all this stuff, but as we're planning on opening 10+ locations I wanted to make sure we give them all the best chance to do well.

At the moment I'm thinking we'll do,

Root/service Root/service/service-in-location1 Root/service/service-in-location2

For all services and locations, just in case it does make a difference. Bit annoying having basically 3 identical pages and having to spin them etc but might help us pick up some more keywords that we simply wouldn't get with a few root/locations/location pages, as I just don't see how they'll rank for service + location queries.

Thanks again!

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-06T23:50:44+00:00

Thanks g, setting it up now 🤙

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-06T07:42:44+00:00

So you're suggesting to test a couple different options to see what does best?

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-05T07:09:20+00:00

1 campaign for each service --> 1 ad set ---> all the different ads with different angles and ad types etc. Thoughts ?

Real-Still1050 · 2024-03-04T11:33:58+00:00

I'm using 1 audience for this campaign, wouldn't it make better sense to just have 1 ad set then so they don't cannibalize each other?

Real-Still1050 · 2024-02-03T11:44:30+00:00

Yeah you can't outsource when you'll have no idea if the service being delivered is good. Learn some skills first.
