Guest guest Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I haven't any experience of this, but I did try google adwords in the past after a pushy sales person contacted me, and got absolutely no clients as a result of it. It's similar in that if someone googles a related topic, your add comes up at the side of the page. As a Google and facebook user I have to say that I never click on these ads. Don't waste your money! You're better off to just start your own fb page (if you haven't already) and keep it really interesting for your followers with lots of updates. Hi Su, I had similar pushy phone call from them last week - although I think they were suggesting £200 to me. Having succumbed to some pushy sales from Yell last year and got precisely zero clients from them (I always ask and note down how people found out about me), I am personally steering well clear of all these pushy sales types from now on. I think the only people who make money out of this are Netsearch and, presumably, facebook. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 This bears out my feeling. I eventually got him to say he'd ring back in an hour so I could do some research, but he didn't. I think that speaks for itself. But if anyone has actually had positive results from this type of advertising, it would be interesting to know! Thanks for all responses, Su > > > I haven't any experience of this, but I did try google adwords in the past after a pushy sales person contacted me, and got absolutely no clients as a result of it.

Its very expensive and you would have to gain enough business to cover the costs. £100 for 1 month? - I was quoted £99 for a year and it still didn't make economic sense for me in my location.

Guest guest Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I'd add that pop-up ads bother me so much that I would be more likely NOT to ever use the services/product of the company behind the ad. As opposed to helping your business, it could make potential patients run in the opposite direction. Kind regards, Kerry This bears out my feeling.
