The reason I ask about the cost per job is you should be able to scale now. buying jobs. thats what good marketing is about right? find a way to market that works then scale. and then test that you cant better the advert with A B testing.

Adwords can work well if you can put up with all the low quality leads as well.

Yes, great results from him, just let him get on with it. He asks that everything is paid by DD for efficiency and that after the first couple of months you need to email him rather than ring (because he's always busy) although he responds pretty quickly. I think he has a lot of cleaning clients so he can make changes quickly to lots of accounts. I certainly don't have any complaints and the account is way better than when I was running it. Hope that helps!
Hi Micheal ,

Can you also forward your Adwords guys details to me jetvaccleaning@hotmail.co.uk

Thanks

So can you scale his success?

if you spend double will he get same cost per customer?

Scaling doesn't work with a something like this for 2 very obvious reasons. Number one: we all tend to be in relatively low internet traffic businesses- so you can't just double your spend to get double the work - if it doesn't exist, you can't get it. Number two: having a very optimised account means spending double doesn't lead to doubling customers - it means lower quality traffic. If you're already getting the best traffic at the best price, why bother chasing the lower end of clicks that are more ambiguous and cost a lot more per job overall.......you need to consider your own circumstances before blindly applying marketing principles to things.

Hi Michael

Many thanks

Oven cleaning - although obviously, I am aware it costs more in places with more competition. My quality scores are all now 9 or 10 (they used to be 6-7) so this helps to keep the cost down. That was one of the things I used to struggle with and why I enlisted help. I don't have the time to learn all the tricks and implement them and I found the more I learn, the more new questions I have - and my account stayed the same regardless. And Google kept changing the bloody format!

Hi Michael.

You mentioned to me that you use this guy for adwords in the hard floor section a few weeks ago. Do you use him for hard floor enquiries too? If so how do find the returns are for hard floors using adwords.

Thanks David.

I do oven cleaning and I'm also involved in a family food business but don't use Adwords for that as it's more appropriate to do direct selling (which I'm rubbish at!). He seems to concentrate on sole traders who provide services as he wasn't interested in my friend's party products business at all.

There's quite a few of us! I also recommend Quickbooks, and there's probably a few staff there called Michael. The point of a forum is to help people out with their problems. I'm happy to recommend people or services that I have found to be effective - is that a problem?

''is that a problem'' .....

.... No it's not and don't be so touchy.  Perhaps I should have put a smiley at the end so you realised it was tongue in cheek!

I'll give you erm I mean him a call  ;D <----- That's a smiley to differentiate from a serious comment.

Thanks for the heads up and hopefully it works for me as I don't have the time to do my own adwords anymore.

Guys

I feel like a junkie hocked on seo and adwords!

For me this year is about selling carpet cleaning.  The market is not exactly on fire,
