I would not recommend this platform at all. If I had to rate it, it would be a 0 out of 10. I invested over $1,000 and did not see any real return. On top of that, I lost a significant amount of time following up on leads that did not convert into actual jobs. In my experience, many leads are not aligned with the pricing and service details already listed in my profile. Even when my prices are clearly stated, I still receive basic inquiries like pricing for a one-bedroom, and I am charged just for responding. This makes the system feel unfair, as you end up paying for leads that are not qualified or have not reviewed your profile. Additionally, many clients say they are looking for recurring services, but in reality are only interested in a one-time deep cleaning at a very low price. This leads to wasted time and money with little to no return. The cost per lead adds up quickly, especially when expectations and budgets do not match. For small businesses, I strongly recommend focusing on referrals, repeat clients, and direct marketing instead of relying on platforms like this.
