    Helping Car Detailers Make Profit

    GOLD! EXECUTION 
    Some crushing it, others aren't. All depends on the area and their pricing. I'm moving away from running ads for clients (just continuing for current clients). I've built my own AI employee system that I'm selling instead now.

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    When i did a carpet cleaning version of this I spent one weekend contacting cleaning companies and asking them would they be interested in me sending them booked jobs. In your case its leads. Then i went and turned the ads on in their area. I signed up 10-12 carpet cleaners in one day. Might be...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    Same here, i've been doing facebook ads for carpet cleaners since Covid. Lead costs now are a lot higher, clients moaning about competition and it's not a sustainable business model anymore, especially when only working with one cleaning company in each area. I'm all in on my new AI employee...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    To be honest I've always kept my ads prices low. For Facebook ads i've only ever charged £99-£149 a month. But I've had customers since 2020 that I've not even spoke to they just keep paying. Do get some that are moaning if they don't get a lead every day though. I've actually moved the other...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    Knowing what I know, i'd do the exact opposite. But having been in the ads game for 7 years i'm not a fan of it anyway. Soon as the ads quiet people moan. I get you can charge more for google ads than other work but personally i'd rather have 300 customers paying me $99 a month that i very...

    Has Moving to a Warm and Sunny Climate Made You Happier?

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    It's more a case of circumstances. Kids are 16 and 18 later this year. Wife has a highly paid corporate job and has to go into the office 2-3x per week. The aim always has been to earn more money and at some point my wife wouldn't have to work and we could travel as and when we wanted...

    It’s not as easy as that for me. Trying to ignore the mood changes doesn’t fool my brain unfortunately.

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    Another model I had success with until it was abused was this. Not sure if its something you could look into @MTF I basically setup a Facebook brand called Cleaner Carpets HQ, i then contacted carpet cleaners in each area of UK and also can be done in USA. And offered them jobs where they'd...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    Andy, I seen another guy recently that has a business that helps home service companies get leads from facebook groups only. Local ones. Here - Ride the Wave Not sure if this could be a business idea for you also @MTF As not a lot of people do this but there's certainly lots of potential and...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    I'm very similar in that even though I do marketing for carpet cleaners, I hate marketing myself. I know how to get customers I just don't like doing it. I only fell into it because I launched an online microfiber towel business and paid someone to do facebook ads and messed it up so I learned...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    Yes I had that recently, a carpet cleaner not far from me. Didn't take any advice on how I told him the ad should be setup, wanted his own wording and video. After a week he complained none of the leads had converted and ad was doing poorly, I told him lead cost was indeed high because he...

    if it had to go back in time I'd focus on one pain point, one system, one service and double down on it.

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    I have, to a degree, but it can be quite complicated to set up because it’s a white-label CRM rather than something I built myself. Depending on what each client wants to use, there can be a lot of hand-holding, configuration and custom setup. On top of that, quite a few clients started asking...

    MTF's Rebirth: Building a New Fastlane Vehicle

    EXECUTION 
    I help carpet cleaners in the UK with Facebook ads. I've had quite a few who are still with me since COVID or before. Some try for a month then leave. One guy lasted a week. I also have a CRM they use to run their carpet cleaning business that works alongside it. Every area performs different...

    How many customers did you get before moving to the building phase of your SaaS?

    MARKETING SAAS / APPS 
    Made this mistake myself, in fact I've wasted 2-3 years building it and found that its not a bigger pain point as I envisioned. I originally thought every business in this niche would want this. Turns out some value it a lot more than others but actually getting in front of these owners isn't...

    What is a good way to validate a SaaS before building it?

    MARKETING SAAS / APPS 
    I have agency clients who use Highlevel so stuck with it for now but I've also built my own custom solution for another service i offer which works a lot better than it does inside Highlevel.
