Hello All,
Hope you are well.
So basically as the thread title stated i am trying to get myself started with Google Ads ( got my Google Certification and also ran my own ecom ads a few years ago) and Web Design. Focusing on lead generation. I have spent time learning Google Ads and web design (wordpress) so i have good theory and now i am looking to get more practical experience.
I prefer Google Ads because i believe it's more performance based and revenue driven marketing. No offence to other platforms but personally i find it easier to target customers.
This is what i have done so far;
Picked a niche - I decided that i would help paving contractors in the UK
Setup a website
Setup domain for outreach.
As of now i have sent around 200 emails to potential clients. This is what i have tried;
Sending out SEO audits - no response
Sending out Reputation Management audits - no response
Sending out Google Business Profile audits - no response
Sending out hand raisers - asking if they can take on more homeowners - here i have had responses but then ghosted once i explained what i did. To be honest here i was too comfortable sending these.
Sending out free work in exchange for testimonial - up until now also no response
So, either my niche is wrong, my targeting is wrong, my approach is wrong or something else that i am not aware of is wrong! or is it simply a case of not contacting enough people?
I was wondering if anyone could shed some light here for me?
Thank you
