Have gained nearly 200 customers since easter weekend from FB.

I think it's great most think it's a load of rubbish.

Get it right and the R.O.I is fantastic imo.

Good luck mick, personally I couldn't think of anything worse than servicing 200 FB customers!!

All are in the same 3 mile radius and also have a canvasser canvassing each road as i clean.
Retention is spot on so far with tbe load i have done all paid and were happy as larry to go on go cardless only having a handful that were just 1 offs.
All £10 fronts or £15 front and back small terrace amd semi's..cant complain at all

How are you doing this mick?

I simply put an add on a group page with 36k members that ill be cleaning in that area next week and if anyone wanted to join the round.
I havnt a fb page or pay to boost whatever that is about?
Just a simple add on a community page.
Luckily my mate is admin so my add doesnt get deleted as advertising.

[Mick Kent]

It would take ages to leaflet or canvass 36k houses.
Took seconds to post on fb.
Time will tell but the last good hit i had on fb last year i had over 60 percent retention so was more than happy with that although much less responce than this time.. im guessing the quiet easter weekend allowed many more to see the advert.

That’s very good we couldn’t cope with an extra 200 jobs are you very short on work or expanding ? I don’t know many people that could cope with that amount of extra work we find it hard enough keeping up with web site enquiries and recommendations I have been thinking about taking the website down as we are that busy but it’s good for the commercial work that I want to expand

No i cant keep up with it all. I was only trying to gain an extra 3/4 jobs on a day where i could do with a few more when boom...this happened. Going to do a few months of 10 hour days with a few Saturdays to confine the work and compact it with canvassing around the jobs gained then either sell or sub the work out to another cleaner. I didnt expect the responce i got at all.

I'm with Adam on this.
Started a page boost last night on a timed showing from 7am to 10pm so last night it ran for 2 hours from starting it.
Got one last night and one so far today both priced up and doing tomorrow.
£50 over 14 days so £3.50 per day with an estimated reach of 230,000 in a 5 mile radius.
Try leafleting that for £50.
I go visit every lead I get off it so can usually filter out the messers.
Also you get the add on jobs this way with Google you just get people wanting window cleaning.

It’s the cost per customer acquired that’s the key measure rather than the theoretical reach. Others results are better than mine but I’ll give it another go taking into account the suggestions.

I picked up two customers today from Facebook..its funny cos i dont have Facebook.

The only reason I have a FB business account is, I saw a post on a local buy and sell group asking about window cleaners. One of my customers had recommended me and linked to a facebook page in my company name. I guess if enough people look for something facebook will open a page anyway.

You couldn’t reach 230,000 other people by leafleting for £50 but if you think one out of 220,000 is a good return crack on. Personally I don’t think it could get any worse. It’s feckin diabolical.


Your last line shows how much you don’t know.

[John Mart]

Well totally copying Adam’s post I’ve picked up three today. Obviously I changed the phone number. Each job was a £20 semi, so £360 a year. Even an old dog who thinks he knows everything can learn something.

Got to say his last line is the total opposite of my experience. Just one offs.

Despite recent headlines, Facebook was voted the go-to website for Britons researching services online. 71 per cent of respondents said that they would check out a company or worker on the site before getting in touch with them.

But hey, you guys know best.

Another £50 spent this week on fb, another 8 first cleans booked in for next week.

Also had 3 gutter jobs and an fsg that I didn't want.
