Good for you :thumbsup:

Trying to sift through the tire kickers already, I couldn't imagine having to do it on facebook too where everyone is someone they're not. I'm always weary when someone "wants" something and didn't come by reference, 9 times out of 10 they want to impress the people around and don't give a damn about my time. Hope it works out, but I'm keeping my face off the book.

I have a FB page but as of now I have kept my business off there. I have mixed feelings about trying FB for my business.

The main reason is that as far as posting pictures of my work I think that my customers would not like to know that their homes would be shown on FB.
The other reason is that I also think there would be too many tire kickers. That is why I don't do Yellow Pages etc.

Having said that, talking with a friend who is also a local small business owner, he said 20% of his business comes from FB. Wow!

Very interesting.
