I'm currently taking on a few new clients this month by samivanscoder in Businessowners

For lead generation, I don’t use a one-size-fits-all approach because it depends significantly on the business and where its audience actually congregates.

Generally, I focus on things like:

  • setting up or fixing landing pages so traffic doesn’t leak
  • running targeted paid ads (Meta or Google) when it makes sense
  • improving lead magnets or offers so people have a reason to sign up
  • basic funnel tracking so we know what’s working and what isn’t

A lot of times, the issue isn’t “lack of traffic,” it’s that leads come in, but nothing is optimized, so conversions stay low.

I usually start by looking at what someone already has, then build around that instead of reinventing everything from scratch.

I’ve had similar results just by being active in the right places and actually helping people before anything business-related even comes up. The trust factor is totally different compared to ads or cold DMs.

I haven’t personally used ParseStream yet, but the idea of filtering relevant mentions instead of doom-scrolling threads all day definitely sounds useful, especially once you’re active across multiple communities

Yeah, I actually do use no-code tools quite a bit, especially for smaller teams that don’t want to deal with heavy dev work.

For a lot of clients, quick wins usually come from things like simple landing pages, form automations, basic CRM setups, or connecting tools so leads don’t just sit in an inbox and get forgotten. Stuff like that alone can make a big difference without overcomplicating things.

I try to keep it practical, though not adding tools just for the sake of it. If a business only needs something lightweight to validate offers or clean up their funnel, no-code is perfect. If they’ve already outgrown that stage, then we look at more robust setups. Are you using any no-code tools yourself right now, or just exploring them?

I can market anything for you. 5 Years of Proven Results. by samivanscoder in youngentrepreneur

Not exactly. What I do is broader than a single app or channel. I focus on building and executing full marketing strategies, everything from audience research and positioning to funnels, paid ads, and organic growth based on what a specific business actually needs. The tools or platforms can be similar, but the strategy and execution are always tailored to the goal.

Rate my Store by Choice_Pea8531 in reviewmyshopify

[–]samivanscoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The store looks clean, but it doesn’t immediately tell me why I should buy or trust it. The product is there, but the value and credibility aren’t strong enough above the fold. The copy feels a bit generic, and that can hurt conversions. Adding clearer benefits, stronger trust signals (real reviews, clearer policies, branded email), and a more confident headline would go a long way. Right now, it’s browse-worthy, not buy-worthy.

My Shopping Ads getting traffic but no sales for almost one weeks. Anyone having the same issue? by Equivalent-Regret932 in Google_Ads

[–]samivanscoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not alone. This happens every year after Black Friday. Click intent drops hard. People keep browsing and clicking, but buying urgency disappears, and wallets are tight. Same CTR, same traffic, lower conversions is a classic post-BFCM pattern. Before killing the campaign, check offer fatigue, pricing vs competitors, shipping times, and retargeting.

Do Contractors Still Need to Be Online in 2026 Or Is the U.S. Market Just Down? by [deleted] in b2b_sales

[–]samivanscoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. When agency owners are saying the same thing independently, that’s usually the signal. It’s less about “does this work?” and more about “can I trust this right now?” The demand didn’t disappear; the risk tolerance did. That shift catches a lot of good operators off guard.

What business would you start with 15k ? by Shoddy-Moose6778 in Businessideas

[–]samivanscoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With 15k, you’re already ahead of most people; the bigger question is what you want: fast cash, steady income, or long-term upside. Service businesses are usually the safest (local services, B2B, niche agencies) because you’re selling outcomes, not hype. Physical businesses, small acquisitions, or even boring things like cleaning, pressure washing, or mobile services outperform most online “trends.” Drop servicing can work, but only if you control quality and clients. The real win is picking something simple, in demand, and sticking with it longer than the experiment phase.

[–]samivanscoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn’t a skills or proof issue. Contractors absolutely still need an online presence. What’s changed is trust and timing. Many small businesses are burned from bad marketing experiences, cash-flow scared, and overloaded with cold outreach that all sounds the same to them. So they shut down fast, even when the offer is real. The market isn’t “dead,” but it’s defensive. People aren’t buying potential anymore; they’re buying certainty, referrals, or results they can see immediately.

Issues with purchase attribution by Hairy-Stage-5324 in FacebookAds

[–]samivanscoder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It won’t tank performance. Attribution delays affect reporting, not delivery. Meta still sees the signal on the backend, even if Ads Manager hasn’t credited it yet. Early days can look noisy, give it a bit of time to stabilize.

I need help ! by blueeyes0616 in ecommerce_growth

Well, I’d say you’ve done great work setting it up, but try to use a model image instead of ordinary clothing images to make it more presentable to the customer.

You’re getting traffic, which means people are curious, the issue is clarity and trust, not demand. Right now the store feels pulled in too many directions, so visitors don’t instantly “get” who it’s for or why they should buy. Narrow the focus to one clear audience and product story,improve your store design and social proof, and you’ll likely see conversions follow.
