    That's true. I work with some great lads who have trouble with online banking because of their background and every time their payment is due they will send me a message - money sent for the month Dave, let me know if you got it. No chasing, no following up with them. Then you work with guys...

    Some days he's getting 4 or 5 leads a day. He came to me with a website lingering on page 2 and someone spent €19,000 on his ads with a cost per lead at nearly €500. I got him in the top 3 for most of his main keywords along with getting his cost per lead down to €80. He's doing quite well...

    €100k Stuck In A LTD Company In Ireland. What to do?

    QUESTION 
    Thanks. I'm starting to realise how bad it is here in Ireland. After 44k a year here you enter the higher tax rate which is absolutely ridiculous when it's one of the most expensive places to live in Europe. I may have to think about moving out of here again.

    The more I think about it, I think ongoing monthly payments have been a problem for me all year. I sign tradesmen up, they pay me and then the next months bill comes and it's chasing and following up even with guys who are doing well. I have a roofer who ignored me for a week so I sent him a...

    Who's using Cold Outreach that's working? I've been doing well enough with Facebook ads and posting on social media almost every day this year but I feel I need to go after bigger and better clients. Working with tradesmen is good but I often have to chase payments even when they're signed...

    €100k Stuck In A LTD Company In Ireland. What to do?

    QUESTION 
    Thank you for the advice. By the sounds of it, I need a better accountant because his only answer was a pension and if I didn't want to put it in a pension then that was it, too bad. I definitely can scale the marketing agency further. I have increased ad spend, I hired Andy for Google ads and...

    €100k Stuck In A LTD Company In Ireland. What to do?

    QUESTION 
    Thanks. Maybe I need a better accountant because he told me the only option was my pension which is tax free. I don't know much about investing which is why I didn't want to do it, I must look in to what I can do.

    I have 2 things going at the moment, I have an exterior cleaning business that I take my income from and I have a marketing business where I help local tradesmen with websites, SEO and Google ads. This year I haven't touched any money from the marketing business and it looks by the end of this...

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

    NOTABLE! MINDSET 
    Did anyone ever live in a place with bad weather and find a way to get over it? If you could drop Ireland further down beside Portugal it would be the best country in the world. Part of me feels I just need to get over this bad weather stuff and get on with things.

    Portugal and Spain are nice countries but in a way they can be a bit backward with their bureaucracy and their tax system is awful compared to the rest of Europe. Best of luck with going back to Canada. You guys gave Portugal a good go so you can never think down the line what might have been...

    My ideal life would be 6 months in Ireland for Spring/Summer. Then 6 months away somewhere sunny for winter. I have a young son now so the next move I make will have to be a permanent one.

    I'm getting a feeling to leave Ireland again. We had a very rainy year so far and it's summer and it's still wet. The bad weather affects my mood. I don't know what it is but it's something psychological and I struggle with it at times. We're heading to Spain in December for 3 months to...

    Starting Google Ads at 19 Years Old: Cold Calling my Way to 2000€/month

    HOT! MARKETING EXECUTION 
    Pick a good niche. I learned Google ads from Andy when I had my cleaning business too. I went down the path of trying to help other cleaners with their Google ads and it's a tough niche. Cheap, complainy, never happy, seasonal work. There's some good niches out there that solely rely on...

    For Fastlaners making more than 30k/mo, why do you want to make more money?

    HOT! CHAT 
    I know a lot of people who done that. That's what I don't get about banks. You have a job for 6 months and they give you what you want and then you can become self employed after you get the mortgage and there's no problem. You tell them you're self employed and they want to know what colour...
