I took a screen shot of one of my most active FB campaigns. As you see I received over 12,000 clicks, shelling out over $3K for the year. I think I got maybe 1 or 2 jobs from it, that I know of. I am here to say, for me, it wasn't worth it.
It's hard to tell, but there's an image in my post. Click the "view image" for the FB campaign stats.

I tried it earlier in the year. Got two jobs from it. Not worth it.

It's been interesting I must say. A lot of people would tag other people in my posts. There was also a lot of douche bags who thought they could post trash. I never let em get away with it unscathed. I think FB works, just not very well for our industry. It definitely gets your name out. I would do it again if, let's say, I was rebranding.

Almost pulled the trigger back in april. Glad I Didn't. I hate Facebook and all that social media crap.

honestly I knew it wasn't producing much ROI. You create 5 or 6 ads just like Google Adwords. It takes a while to weed out weak performers. The one you see was the best performer. Can you believe over 12K clicks? Talk about less than 1% of 1%.
I did have one long extensive thread. Some old customers chiming in with good reviews. Debating some people who haven't a clue.

Early in the days of Spray Wash I ran some FB ads. I had decent response and booked a couple job directly from FB, but spent more like $100-150 bucks. Did not go high dollar at all.
