If we stop feeding these companies, we'll get our own natural enquiries back, the ones that would have found us direct, had a paid for advert promising professionals been at the top to distract them.
For every lead you win, you probably lost two to someone else, when the emails would've been in your mail box had these companies not existed.

Not sure I agree with that. Certainly, a lot of the work I get, I wouldn't have come up in a search " Mobile Disco Cleckhuddersfax ", as I'm East Yorkshire, but probably work more in West Yorks, North Yorks and Lincolnshire.

Time to set about those search terms then innit
Figuring how much bark et al seem to be bidding on Google keywords, how much they take per lead etc I'm not sure they can be making much money so maybe they won't be around forever

Disco Dude!
I've used Bark for the past 8/9 months. Spent about £150 and gained (mainly midweek work) about £1800 in business so well worth the investment.
That said there's a few leads that I'd never pay for (missing details such as date required). It's worth being part of but just turn off the email alerts unless someone wants a quote from you.
My 2p's worth.

I've spent about £100 on leads in the last 12 months and had 5 gigs from bark so not too bad, just be choosey about what you quote for. Not got any credits at the moment as i'm busy for the rest of the year, and most enquiries are last minute!
always remember, you're unique, just like everyone else......
