Lack of response
I've gotten 27 leads over the last 2 weeks and I am seeing an unnerving trend: People who don't answer the phone or call/message me back even when I respond to their leads questions within 15 seconds. Why would someone go to the trouble of answering the questions if they won't answer the phone or respond to a message? Beyond frustrating. Is anyone else dealing with this? Thanks

Just as a user of FB, it is quick to show ads. You click on them not realizing its a paid ad and it automatically sends a message to start the process. As a user of fb, I have had to be careful of what to click. I would attribute some of the false leads to people clicking on the ad by mistake or just wanting to see more, but not interested in actually using the service.

@Ron Mattson Ahh gotcha. Yeah, thats a bit weird they take time to fill out, ghost you on the end.
Small win (still a win)
Just completed my FIRST job today! Not a huge one but the first one is the hardest. Got leads coming in and things are moving. Just gotta keep up!

Kudos. The first is the hardest.
Facebook ad comments
Question, what are you guys doing about Facebook ad comments? I’ve had two comments left. One was telling me to stop mulching I’m ruining the land. The other one was a competitor that absolutely cussed me up and down for forestry mulching. Have you guys ran into this before and can you turn comments off on your Facebook ads? It’s not a boosted post. It’s an actual ad we run through ad manager.

Thank them for the comment and concern. Leave it as that. No need to get into a pissing contest with a bunch of tree hugging idiots. Be nice and pleasant. No snarky comments. Otherwise just ignore.

@Carl Ballman Good deal. Keep it going. I am soon to kick off. Still getting all the logistics worked out. I have a few family friends that want me to do some work. Those more then likely be discounted due to friends/family and since I'm just starting off this adventures.
