Bark

Only reason I purchased the minimum 100 credits was to answer just one lead. Turned out the lead was not even a lead, totally unqualified. After 5 months of being on their platform, I got just one unqualified lead. I wanted to get a refund, they said it's not in their policy, despite their guarantee of at least one job from the purchased credits. I got more leads from Google and Alignable.com which both are free services. Stay absolutely away from bark.com! You are better off spending your money elsewhere.

I was hopeful Bark would be a legit way to get leads for my Hypnotherapy services. WRONG! I purchased the promotional credit package of 30 credits fo around $35. I sent approx 10 quotes. I did not have even 1 person respond. A nice "No Thanks" or " Not interested " would be nice. Once you spend credits and send your info to the prospective client, you are supposed to receive all of their contact info. That didn't happen either. I did receive their name and town, which I searched Facebook for. Not one of them had a facebook profile. Go Figure! Needless to say, the contacts are either bogus or other business professionals trolling their competition.
My BEST form of advertiding is still my website SEO and Google. - Nuf said!

Good for customers but not for your business! Sell lead to 5 companies and even if you first to buy you still dont get a response from customer as they usually have three quotes n discard the rest, try mybuilder where you express interest and only pay if you are one of three chosen by customer! Bark is 75% unresponsuve leads and a waste of time and money with wrong so called verified numbers and landline numbers that ring morning afternoon n night with no answer! Joke of a site

Within 12 hours I had many companies contact me. I went with Greenteam. It was a huge job. Very efficient. Great price.
******Have to edit this review, the trees had started to grow back within a couple of weeks. It wasn't long before it was like a forest again. Roots were all left and for someone that is on invalidity and has to save very hard to get work like this done, I am very disappointed. Trees and bushes that were cut down were not taken away in full. In fact there is still a pile behind my wall in a public green area. I haven't been able to access that part of my garden at all.

If you're looking for people who are REALLY interested in what they're asking for regarding services, Bark.com isn't the place to be. They make money off of charging you to access information from people who have slightly expressed interest in a service, but they're not really ready to buy. For marketing, as an example, 90% of the leads are looking for social media services and are 1-man-band-companies looking for someone to just "do the things" at most likely dirt-level prices. Business owners who aren't in consumer services (i.e. HVAC, plumbing, photography, etc...) shouldn't bother with this site.

I found a wonderful, pperson to help me through some rough spots. I am so thankful for that. The telephone contact made it easier for me to relax and be myself and share the things ai need help, with, without worrying about a reaction on a person's face. The price is so affordable and with the pandemic being able to get counseling and help without leaving my house makes it even better. Give it a chance, I think you just might find EXACTLY what you are looking for.

Bark. Com' is a easy to use website.
Their customer service team is reactive.
However, the quality of their service is very poor. Leads are not well qualify before to be send. The customer service advise to contact the prospect as soon as we receive the lead. Unfortunately, one person over 10 will say that they were looking for the service. The 9 others said they were playing on the website, other will say they didn't made an enquiry other just hung up the phone when I said that I received their enquiry through Bark.com.
It is chocking to pay £36 (ex VAT- £43 VAT inc) for 5 leads and have 0 client.
They really need to qualify their leads as the money we invest in doesn't ruin from the sky!

Join bark there good at spamming
Fake numbers from so called potential customers fake leads posted. Scammed my money but luckily I got one lead that followed through to get the money back - waste of time.

Emails that don't exist there constantly banging fake reviews up on trust pilot

Avoid like the plague that they are

They since deleted account as I asked - now there reporting reviews by myself saying they don't know me we'll bark I have a bank statement so the reviews will be bk up

The customer service at Bark.com is absolutely unprofessional, rude and disrespectful. I had issue with two leads i purchase from them. I was asking questions regarding the the leads in case they weren't able to reach the customer and I was cursed out by the employee. If you guys are going to provide service to the public you need to learn proper manners. If someone spends their money with you guys it is only fair for them to ask questions. They are the worst!

As a website designer, I was invited into Bark.com and hope get a job from your website.
But I tried to make some leads, I don't think all customer are real customers from bark.com.
1. If I made a lead, not any response from customers. Even after some days, the response status are still pending. (Customer not any response at all)
2. I ever call some customers, but they don't know bark.com at all. Some customers told me they had hired someone already.

So i think bark.com published some fake leads. Don't waste your time and money on it.

I have been with Bark since January and have purchased the lead pack and got the free one when I didn't get any orders. So far I have purchased around 30 leads and out of that maybe 7 or 8 asked for a quote. Only 2 were serious enough to get payment started, but ended up ghosting me and withdrawing there lead from Bark.

I wouldn't recommend investing very much in the Bark system. Wasted time and money on them.

I work as a photographer, spent a few hundred dollars on their credits. Their leads are never responding, they don't have the necessary categories and when speaking with support they are automatically on the defensive.

Avoid.
