Most contractors aren’t losing at marketing because Facebook changed an algorithm.
They’re losing because they keep handing money to people who don’t know a damn thing about the trades.
In this episode, Tom Reber sits down with Josh Osborne of No Excuses Media for a blunt conversation about why contractors keep getting screwed by marketing companies, how to stop outsourcing your brain, and what actually matters if you want your marketing to produce leads and sales.
They get into the real stuff:
bad agencies,
lazy contractor thinking,
victim mentality,
weak messaging,
and why owning your numbers and leading from the front still beats chasing shiny marketing tactics.
Josh also shares parts of his story...getting knocked down hard in life and business, losing everything, and rebuilding from the ground up.
If you’re tired of getting bled dry by “marketing experts” who have never run a trades business, this episode is for you.
In this episode:
* Why contractors keep getting screwed by marketing agencies
* The red flags to watch for before hiring a marketing company
* Why your marketing won’t work if your message sucks
* How victim thinking keeps contractors broke
* What it really takes to rebuild after getting punched in the mouth
* Why owning your numbers matters more than any lead source
* How to market smarter without getting bent over by bad vendors
