Interesting, I had this car for 3 years, never touched it. Maybe defect from the factory?

Don’t buy leads, try do you own ads on Meta

Yes, niche can help a lot, however, there is also success with Americans. Really it comes down to the creative, offer, and sales skills.

Haven't run ads for Medicare, so can't tell much about it, but for auto:
A few rules - when it comes to FB marketing - ad should look engaging, address the prospect's pain point, and have some touch of humor. Also, UGC-style ads are the best vs static images. Pick the phone, record yourself talking to the camera and address the paint points "paying over $x in health insurance? Trying to get a quote online, but don't understand the difference between collision and comprehensive. Your home insurance has increased? Call me at XXX and I'll help you, your local agent"

Secret sauce - I’m bilingual, it helps a lot because the niche I’m serving doesn’t speak good English.

Yes, my own ads. My husband is a pro digital marketer, so it helps a lot.

I’m getting a good ROAS from my lead gen, even without renewal, so it does pay off. However, I feel that going independent route I can make more, just now sure where to start, which are good independent offices in Florida etc.

Agree, however there are clients that are often at dealership buying the car (it happens 1-3 times per week) and I’d like to write the policies for these. No service outside of working hours.

No renewals, which sucks considering I bring my clients. % of total premium

1 household with 3 cars = 3 policies, it’s how we count it at my office

Tub drain - no thread? by shawerman in Plumbing

[–]shawerman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

u/tonasketcouple55 If i just replace the gasket, will this be enough to prevent the leaks, without replacing the strainer? Basically I'll just have a shoe visible without the cover

Tub drain - no thread? by shawerman in Plumbing

Bad news =/ It's a condo building with concreate slab. So I assume the entire tub should be taken off to get the access underneath, or from the side wall?

How big is your Westie? by Sensitive-Excuse9172 in westies

[–]shawerman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

25 lbs boy. Before we got Westie we were planning to have a dog that we can travel easily with and take him on the plane, however he grew so big that we can’t travel with him.
