Has anyone ever advertised on Yelp?

[Mark Fulop]

Today i received an email for advertising on Yelp. I am looking for new places to advertise online but really have no faith in it. Most business has come from paid adds in magazines, etc not the internet. Also I just fired my seo guy after 8 months my keywords were still in the 30's not near the top ten. All SEO guys say the same thing. We will get you on the first page of Google!  Maybe for someone else but i paid money every month and I should of spent it on cheeseburgers.  Normally I don't ask for assistance but I am thinking that maybe someone will have some good advice. I thought about adsense on biggerpockets but that may be expensive.   I started out as a loan originator for over 10 years before I went on my own and started underwriting my own loans.  Since this site is designed to ask questions i decided to make this post. Thanks
