0 Rick2 42 Report post Posted February 2, 2011 I could c that workin I'm not trying to sound like a smart a$$ but watch your spelling and grammar. I've only read two posts by you and both had errors. When you're dealing with customers they more than likely own the house or building (which usually represents a great deal of money) you are bidding on. If I saw a bid with these kind of errors on it I would move on to the next powerwashing bid. Just my thoughts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

0 Doug Rucker 31 Report post Posted February 3, 2011 when most of you guy's started out did you do anything special to get potential customers to notice you'r business? Hey John, how's it going? Yards sign's are a great way to get noticed. I had before sign's and after signs. Also, after doing a job I would always knock on the doors of neighbors and introduce myself, and give a handout flyer about my business. I also always timed my arrival to get to the job at about 7:30-7:45 so that I would get noticed by the neighbors when they are leaving for work. Goes without saying that your work is the most important way to get noticed, and always ask your customer before leaving if they are 100% satisified. Then ask them to refer you to there neighbors. These are just a couple ways to get noticed as your starting out, Email me or call me if you want to discuss more. Hope this helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 FullBlast 14 Report post Posted February 3, 2011 You mentioned before and after signs. Do you mean you had one sign that youput in the yard when you bid and landed the job and then when you went back to do the job you changed the sign? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
0 Celeste 341 Report post Posted February 3, 2011 How you're noticed depends first on who your target audience is. You want homeowners, property management, or builders for example. All three will have completely different methods. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
