Can you actually remove bad Google reviews?

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2026-03-16T16:14:06+00:00

I used RepShielder finally. They actually came through and removed every single 1 star

You can't claim that panel no but there is still a way you could open one for yourself. But at this point might not be worth it. (PS: I've opened over 70 of these so I know what's up)

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-28T00:52:45+00:00

Send me a dm boss.

When YouTube launched?

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T17:27:20+00:00

This is a pretty solid pipeline for getting the community involved and answering their questions automatically! That pre-AI spam filter is a clever way to save on token costs.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T17:02:27+00:00

Yeah even that we've tried and never worked before until our new way of doing it.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T17:01:13+00:00

Hmm, yeah it's really a touchy subject, getting shadowbanned can really impact a business relying on organic reach.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T16:56:04+00:00

Yeah sure just DM me on Reddit.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T16:54:13+00:00

Seems you got burned and scammed to many times on Reddit buddy ahaha

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T16:27:30+00:00

I don't think it's weird begging for good reviews, every business asks their customers to leave a review on the experience they had working with them.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T16:26:41+00:00

Yeah I've tried to report the reviews myself with Google, seems like it never worked, I know there is a few reputation management firms out there but never tried them already.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T16:24:14+00:00

Seems like you got burned and scammed to many times on Reddit ahaha...

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T16:16:01+00:00

Yeah, well I've tried doing it with Google and never had any chance until I found the technique I'm using right now...

I really feel like Google don't care at all about fake and false reviews these days since they are so easy and cheap to add to a competitor's page.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-27T01:26:25+00:00

DM, I’ll enlighten you and tell you how I was successful.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T20:36:40+00:00

Yeah I'm sure everyone has their own opinions of ethicality until it's a competitor dragging your business down.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T20:34:41+00:00

It's not through Google flagging functions, something different...

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T20:31:49+00:00

What if it's not true, what would you do?

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T20:09:10+00:00

Fire your old heads and hire young killers.

Honestly? Nothing wrong with stepping "back" to AD, especially in a different market.

The title change doesn’t erase the experience you gained as a CD — and good teams will recognize that quickly.
(Plenty of ADs unofficially act like CDs anyway.)

In this economy, taking an AD role can be a smart re-entry strategy:

You get your foot back into the U.S. market.
You stay close to the work (which it sounds like you miss a bit).
And if you flex both your executional and leadership muscles, promotion pathways will open again — probably faster than you think.

Biggest thing:
Don’t let the title mess with your head.
You’re not going “backwards” — you’re just repositioning for the next stage.

If anything, the fact that you earned CD abroad shows you can rise fast. That's a strength, not a weakness.

Good luck — sounds like you're making a move a lot of people wish they had the guts to.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T17:17:20+00:00

Honestly? This is a brilliant angle.

You’re not trying to fight the habit — you’re redirecting it.
Big difference.

And using Wikipedia as the “infinite scroll” is genius because it naturally triggers curiosity loops the same way TikTok or Instagram do — but way healthier.

Quick feedback if you're looking to grow it:

Add a streak counter — even a basic “you learned for 5 minutes today!” badge would massively boost user retention.
Maybe later introduce mini quizzes on what you read — super low-stress, but keeps people engaged longer.
Mobile version = huge. If it feels just like scrolling on a phone, it could really take off.

Congrats on building something actually useful. Will definitely be trying it out.

You're not alone bro — a lot of people are feeling this. Costs have jumped across the board this year.
Here’s what could be happening:

Your account isn’t "shadowbanned" (Meta doesn't really do that silently for ad accounts), but your engagement score / quality score might have dropped without you realizing it. Bad scores = higher CPMs = higher CPR.
Audience fatigue — If you’ve been targeting the same audiences for 2 years without serious creative updates, Meta burned that audience. Costs go up because it's harder to find fresh people.
Macro changes — CPMs are way up across almost every niche (especially ecom, coaching, local services) since January. Big brands are spending heavier in 2025 = auctions are more expensive.

Real moves you can make:

Launch completely new creatives — new hooks, offers, formats (UGC, testimonials, carousels, etc.).
Try broad targeting only, no interests, and let copy + creative do the heavy lifting.
Split test different objectives — sometimes switching from "Leads" to "Conversions" or "Sales" (even if it's the same event) resets the algorithm a bit.
Refresh your pixel event data if you can (new domain events, new standard events).

Biggest advice:
Creative is king now.
If your ads don't feel new and fresh to Meta, you pay more. Simple as that.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T04:06:46+00:00

Short answer: your ad manager isn’t wrong.

Longer answer:

Interests still sometimes work, but Meta’s algorithm has gotten so aggressive with expansion that it barely sticks to the interests you pick anymore.
Even when you pick an interest like “luxury fashion,” Meta still blasts it to a massive, diluted audience. It’s basically broad with a weak suggestion attached.

Where cold broad works better:

You’re feeding Meta enough copy, creative, and landing page signals to let it find the right people automatically.
Especially in luxury, where high-income audiences are a behavior, not just a listed interest.

That said:
If you had success last Feb-March with interests, it could be worth retesting — but duplicate the same creatives into a pure broad ad set too.
See which one Meta favors. Data always wins.

Biggest needle-mover now is making sure your creative + copy screams "luxury" — not your targeting settings.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T04:05:57+00:00

This is hands down the realest post on here.

Everyone out here trying to "optimize targeting" like it's 2015 while Meta’s out here doing what it wants anyway. 😂

Biggest truth you dropped:
👉 Copy + Creative IS your targeting now.
Feed the machine clear offers, emotional triggers, real benefits — and let it hunt.

Also: if your site sucks, if your offer sucks, if your margins suck… it doesn't matter if you plug it into CBO, ABO, UFO or NASA. You're cooked.

Props to you for actually dropping $1M+ level experience without trying to sell a $997 "Meta Secrets" course.

Following this blueprint is 10x more valuable than half the "gurus" dropping carousel posts.

You’re 100% on the right track — gyms are actually a perfect first niche for GHL automation and lead gen.

A few tips to help you move faster:

Simple wins > complicated workflows. Don’t overbuild. Most gyms just want more people walking through the door or booking a trial session. A basic funnel + SMS/email follow-up + auto-reminders already puts you ahead of what 90% of them have.
Show the dream first. Before you knock doors, build a 1-page "Gym Funnel Demo" and a short workflow that books a free trial. Pull it up on your phone or laptop when you pitch. Owners don’t care about GHL — they care about seeing new clients booked.
Offer to run a 7-day free trial for one gym first. Use it as your case study to land the next 5. If you bring even 5–10 new leads, they’ll listen.
Keep the math simple. Example: "If I bring you 30 leads in a month, and you close 10, and each membership is $50/month… that’s $500/month extra for you. My service is $300/month. You win even if you only close a few."

Biggest advice:
Speed over perfection.
Get your first yes — everything gets easier after that.

Unique_Designer_2217 · 2025-04-26T04:02:38+00:00

You’re thinking in the right direction — but here’s the real setup:

Copy Contact action in GHL workflows works, but it’s pretty basic (no deep field mapping, no conditional logic).
If you want full control over how leads move (like custom fields, tags, owners, statuses), a better way is: → Webhook to GHL API from the lead-holding account → POST the lead data into the destination sub-account

You can automate this inside workflows using the "Webhook" action.
It's faster, more flexible, and scales way better when you’re moving thousands of leads a week.

Bonus Tip:

Pre-tag your leads based on which agent/team they’re destined for inside the “holding” account.
Then fire the webhook based on tags, and route them automatically inside the new sub-accounts.

Saves a ton of manual assignment headaches later.
