My website, AgServiceFinder.com, is a business directory and advertising agency that helps farmers connect with agricultural service providers, such as livestock transporters, custom harvesters, etc.
Ag service providers can list their business on my site for people to find through our search tool on the website homepage. They can choose between 3 "plans" (Prices: FREE, $9, and $14) when listing their business. The free plan allows you to add just basic information, such as your business description and contact information. Paid plans allow you to add more, such as images, video, business hours, etc. I also offer the option to run a Google Search ad campaign for their listing (managed by me).
I made one sale from a business who found me through social media. They purchased the $14 plan (costed $30 at the time). They didn't sign up for a subscription unfortunately, just a one-time 30 day listing. I've had one other business sign up for a free listing, but that's it.
Since then, I've been unable to make a sale or even get another business to list themselves for free.
I ran Facebooks Ads for roughly a month, but can't afford to run any more at this time. I've started sending cold emails to businesses. I've sent out roughly 100 over the past 2 weeks and also submitted 50+ entries in online contact forms. I haven't received any responses. I've also spent a lot of time engaging with people on social media. Not trying to directly sell to them, but engaging and discussing topics to put my name out there.
At this point, I'm not sure what to do. I'm not making sales; Even if I do tomorrow, the amount of work I've been putting in to get customers isn't worth it.
