    Facebook Ads Not Working? THIS Is Why!

    So many businesses lose jobs they should have won, not because of pricing, not because of poor service, but simply because the prospect forgot about them. In this week’s episode of Websites That Convert, Shannon breaks down the real reason your leads don’t convert and the low-cost retargeting strategy that can instantly double your results… without increasing your ad spend. If you’re running Facebook or Instagram ads, this is the missing piece. Most people won’t inquire the first time they see you, studies show they need to see your brand at least 7 times before taking action. This is exactly where retargeting becomes your most powerful tool. Whether you're a service-based business or a trade business, this strategy can make you look like a bigger, more professional brand while capturing the leads you’re currently losing.
