The long weekend is over, but that just means that a short week is ahead. Let’s do this thing, people. 👇
Ever Tried Facebook Ads and Got… Nothing?
You’re not alone. Too many Coulee Region businesses have thrown money at Facebook ads only to see crickets. The problem isn’t your business—it’s the way the ads are set up, targeted, and optimized.
That’s where Solid Lead Co. comes in. We make locally-targeted Facebook ads up to 50% more efficient—and we only charge a 10% management fee. No long contracts. No minimums.
Our approach works best for high-value, occasional-purchase services like:
🪨 Concrete repair & resurfacing
🏠 Roofing, siding & window replacement
🛠 Remodeling & renovations
🌳 Landscaping & outdoor living projects
Here’s how simple it is:
You set your budget (spend what makes sense for you)
We do everything else—from campaign setup to monitoring, optimization, and creative development
You watch your ad dollars go further—often enough to cover our fee entirely.
Stop wondering if Facebook ads work. Start seeing them actually bring in leads.
Here’s what I was listening to when I wrote this email.👇

🐾 Meet Spider Monkey!
This sweet little tabby is full of curiosity and charm. Spider Monkey may start out a bit shy, but every day brings more confidence as they discover the joy of playtime, naps, and exploring with their siblings. Like most kittens, Spider Monkey thrives with a buddy—whether that’s a littermate or another young cat already in your home. Having a friend means more play, more learning, and a happier, healthier kitten life.
If you’re ready to add some playful pounces and soft purrs to your days, Spider Monkey is waiting to meet you! Stop by during open hours Wednesday or Saturday, or reach out to La Crescent Animal Rescue at 507-895-2066 or [email protected].
