Been running YouTube ads targeting folks searching for Tesla home chargers, and damn if it ain't pulling in $8k jobs like clockwork. Watched a Dustin Stelzer video on Electrician U that got me thinking about video content for sparks work, so I scripted quick clips demoing the JuiceBox setup process. Cost me about $200 a day but the leads convert at 40% - worth every penny for commercial gigs too. Anyone else seeing traction with this?

watch out for those YouTube ad costs spiking after the first month, had a buddy blow $5k on leads that went cold fast. stick to google ads if you wanna keep the ROI steady.

dude, same shit here with roofing leads... i run a few facebook ads and half the calls are just nosy neighbors askin if i can patch a shingle for free. been chasin that video ad dream too, spent a couple hundred on youtube once and got zip, mostly tire kickers who think a new roof is under 5k. feels like were all just feedin the algorithm while the real jobs go to word of mouth. pests or roofs, doesnt matter, folks love the free consult. wish there was a hack to filter out the cheapskates before they waste your time.

youtube ads sound slick but they're oversaturated BS now, i switched to nextdoor flyers and pull $6k jobs without burning $200 a day on clickbait.

Man, same boat here - spent a ton on ads last quarter and barely broke even on the first few installs.

Screw that, YouTube's oversaturated now with every hack electrician posting clickbait. Stick to local SEO on Google, it's cheaper and targets real homeowners in your zip.

Big corps are buying up all the ad space anyway, leaving us small guys fighting for scraps while they undercut on price.

This lead gen crap is rigged against independents - PE firms hoover up the good jobs before we even get a call.
