Anyone using it?

Any issues with “Pressure Washing” or “Power Washing” being returned in the gls results?

I signed up and am waiting for a background check to pass. Doesn’t seem like a horrible deal. They charge $8 per phone call and no contract for it. Will only turn on when I need it

Nope window cleaning, then sub cat of power washing. Should only get calls for the latter

So it’s odd, I can’t find one city where “Pressure Washing” or “Power Washing” display a result in the gls pack!?

Just confirmed with Google, there’s a bug for the job type “Power/pressure washing”

**Will not** return your company in the gls pack ☹

Weird. I got on the phone with a rep to try and figure it out, said to select window cleaning and then only select power washing under services offered

Yup, that’s correct.

The issue is that job type is presently not included in the gls 3 pack even though you’ve selected it.

If you enable the gutter cleaning or any other job types you will be found for those job types but presently not for Power/pressure washing.

Huge issue for us 😕

Yikes. Better not signup then. I don’t see why they don’t have their own category for it in the first place

They’ll fix it, to much potential revenue not to. Plus you’ll be ready for when it is fixed.

No, that’s ad words. The local services ads display above those.

It’s pay per lead as opposed to pay per click.

It depends on a lot of factors. The quality of the leads is what is the most important to us.
