On Nextdoor, the most common question in many neighborhoods is some version of "who do you use for this?" Nextdoor offers a free Business Page and free Business Posts in the neighborhood feed, with paid ads on top. For a local trade that works the same streets every week, that is worth setting up.
- The business page and business posts are free.
- Recommendations from neighbors are the point. Ask happy customers to recommend you there.
- Post finished jobs on streets near the people who will see them.
- Paid ads are optional; Nextdoor does not list a fixed price on its small business page.
- Treat it as one more owned channel, not a replacement for Google.
Set up the free page
Claim or create your business page with your real business name, the services you offer, the areas you serve and a few photos of your own work. Keep the name and phone number the same as on Google, so neighbors who look you up find the same business.
What to post
Finished jobs on nearby streets, with permission and nothing personal in the photo. A seasonal reminder before your busy stretch. An answer to a neighbor's question, without a hard sell. Nextdoor rewards being a neighbor first.
Paid ads
Nextdoor sells ads aimed at neighborhoods, with targeting by things like homeownership and interests. Its small business page does not list a fixed price, so set a small test budget, run it for a month and count booked jobs, not views.
Same streets, more reach
Nextdoor rewards being known on the street. So does mail. Koira's neighbor postcards go to the homes around each job you finish, which is the same neighborhood your Nextdoor page is trying to reach, and a referral link lets a happy customer pass you along.
