Hi guys

Have a Facebook buiseness page with my info on ect.

I decided to pay for a boost on a post and promote buiseness in local area.

The boost post was £10 for 3 days that's now expired as hit the £10. Had 2000 views and 11 clicks.

I had it set on friends of friends and swapped halfway so all my targeted people could view instead. Wasn't sure what to put under intrests? Had it set in both male and female to target too.

My promotion for local business was set in a 3 mile radius in busy london. Had 400 views no actions yet.

Basically had 0 yes 0 enquires what the hell am I doing wrong. I see some here have 8,9 ,10 enquires a week??

Thanks guys

 
Join as many local buy an sell groups etc. then post to them once per day

Post to ur business page once per day to keep interests up etc weather it's something funny or a update of pictures of a job u done

 
I've messaged you @Reach For The Glass

For me it is as simple as searching the name of every area in town and other areas i want work and finding every group that is called :

Buy and sell

Swap and sell

(Area name) community group

Small businesses in....

I need

Etc

Then facebook gives you suggestions of related groups which usually gets you a lot more

It can be slow at first but once you find a group that seems to work for you you will find people ask for a windy and your happy customers from those groups recommend you

It snowballs from there

For example someone asked on one of the community groups for a window cleaner and this is the response recommending me in the space of a few minutes

theres a learning curve to it-like everything . my opinion its essential to have a-good workaday images b- a call to action with prices/special offer that has to be taken straight away

 
I joined over 30 groups the swap bye and sell ect used to post in all of them every day after day and got a few messers few being the operative word diddent work for me at all. Others it works realy well for.

 
It is strange

Some groups you get nothing and others like 2 in particular that i am on are like little goldmines

In a nice area which is like it's own little community on the outskirts of town

They seem happy to recommend me for roofs..gutters..windows etc

1 particular woman has recommended me to her neighbours, her tennants (landlady of 2 houses) and about 10 at least of her friends

That is worth sorting through the odd messer which you can usually spot a mile away
