TikTok is a scam for cleaning biz marketing, just spent $200 on Canva ads and got zilch

I dumped $200 into Canva templates for TikTok videos showing my deep cleaning tricks with O-Cedar mops, thinking it'd blow up like those influencers claim. Total BS, zero leads after a week of posting. Save your cash, stick to door-knocking or something real.

god damn it, same here with my insta reels, wasted a whole afternoon filming baseboards and nothing.

all these social media gurus are full of shit, pushing their courses while we chase likes.

i feel ya, been there with fb ads too.

NGL, tried the same and ended up deleting the app.

skip tiktok, get a google business profile instead, costs less and actually works for local house cleans.

haha, i posted a vid of scrubbing grout and my cat photobombed, got one like from my mom.

lmao, at least your cat's a star, mine just knocks over the vac.

yeah, i get the pain, social media burnout is real in this biz.

lost a ton on similar crap last year.

those ads promise the world but deliver squat.

totally, it's exhausting chasing viral fame.

man, i feel for you, been grinding this for years.

hit 50k last year without posting a single reel, just word of mouth and flyers.

everyone's pissed at how these apps monetize our content for free.

yep, stole my best oven cleaning tip vid.

i know the struggle, keep pushing through.

damn right, we're all in this together.

social media overlords can shove it.

i feel that, same boat with my detailing side hustle.

ugh, yeah, it's depressing how little it pays off.

big corps are eating us alive with their algorithms.

totally get it, solidarity brother.

lost weeks to this nonsense.

how do you even track roi on tiktok anyway?

platforms are designed to keep us hooked and broke.

try nextdoor instead, got three window cleaning jobs from it last month.

tried fb marketplace ads, same garbage results.

go old school, business cards at laundromats work wonders.

park your van with signs in busy lots, beats social bs.

network at chamber meetings, that's where real commercial cleans come from.

the whole influencer economy is a pyramid scheme for cleaners.
