Most Bang For The Buck


I'v been a contractor for more then 25 yrs. & have never needed to advertise at all, but now with the way things are the phone s not ringing as much.
My question is this where is the best place to advertise to get the most
for my money

Quality work, great customer service, and a friendly attitude has always worked for me.

Go whore your self out, and meet and talk to everyone you can, go shake hands and kiss babies, it will work.

Why pay for adds when there are sooooo many ways to advertise for free? If you've been in the game for long its time to start doing a few follow up calls

Do you have a database of your past clients? Emails, phone numbers etc? Try sending out a coupon to them along with a request for referrals to kick start a campaign. I did a quick search for your business and didn't find you anywhere so maybe a website would be good for starters.
