Contractor Posting FAQ

What should I post as a contractor?

Simple answers for contractors, trades, and local service businesses that want to post more, stay visible, and get more calls without overthinking what to say.

What should I post as a contractor?

Post real work. Finished jobs, before-and-afters, service reminders, customer updates, seasonal tips, and quick photos from the jobsite all work well.

Do Facebook posts actually help contractors get more calls?

They can. People like seeing proof that you are active, reliable, and doing real work. Recent posts make your business look alive and easier to trust.

How often should a local service business post?

You do not need to post every day. A few useful posts each week is usually better than posting random filler.

What kind of posts work best for local businesses?

Finished job posts, before-and-after posts, service promos, Google Business updates, and short local ads are all strong options.

What do I type into ShowYourWork?
