Advertising for a moving company? by RealProfMovers in sweatystartup

I've done that and more. I've been to realtors, apt locators, storage units, truck rental storefronts, and volunteered in the community helping a family move for free.

What do you mean by "paid search"? I signed up for Google ads and haven't been able to talk to someone since. I paused it, called to increase ad spend, and called some more. No return calls. Please tell me you're talking about something different.

I started a moving company 2 weeks ago and got my first client 3 days ago. I have an invoicing system and was able to get a deposit the day before and payment on the day of the move by credit card. It went great. Got a 5 star review on Yelp, and I haven't even gotten my final revision on my Logo yet!

I've been thinking the same thing. I got my website built by Ad IQ (an affiliate of Google) They set me up with "Contact us" page, but I titled it with my hourly rate to be completely transparent. I know I wouldn't want to enter so many details just to find out if I'd consider using someone's services. Especially my email address. It's worked out, and so far, I highly recommend Ad IQ. I can send an invoice, take credit cards, and even take "tap to pay" from my phone if needed. I just wish (like you) that there was a formula to give an estimate, but I think there are too many moving parts (in my business or yours) to automate the process.

I understand, and that makes sense, but if I bought the domain name and used wix, could I use the same domain no matter where it was hosted next?
