in your case, a building supply ad in the yellow page should do, a good website (professional design)

Did you get a discount on your yellow page ad for putting that logo (phonebook) on the back of your van?

Re: ??? Whats The Best Way To Spread The News About Your Company?
Your vehicle is a moving information board about your company. When I'm driving from job to job, I try to travell through the busiest places in my city. I say, for every person who sees our logo and name, that's great becaus it implants us in their minds for later on.

Re: ??? Whats The Best Way To Spread The News About Your Company?
If you are a supplier do a mailer and invite them to your place of business for a cook out.
Have drawings and have your manufactures there to help support you. Make it fun and no real selling just kind of a meet and greet type thing. We also do lunch and learn type party's. There's a million ways to do this. Just do it!! Good luck |

Re: ??? Whats The Best Way To Spread The News About Your Company?
depending on your type of business..... Yard signs! create eye catching yard signs, put them out for about a week at the location where you've worked. They will become recognizable before too long.

Re: ??? Whats The Best Way To Spread The News About Your Company?
testimonials on the website, craigslist, yahoo local, yahoo business directory, angieslist, and consider going on to homeowner focused forums and being helpful and knowledgeable. Other ways you could consider would be marketing to real estate brokers, providing free content to the local paper as a handyman question column. I have tons of ideas that have worked well if you need/want more.

Rob a bank and be sure to get caught. The newspapers will pick it up and your business will get lots of press.

Re: ??? Whats The Best Way To Spread The News About Your Company?
Word of mouth is the most effective, lowest cost, and greatest foundation for all marketing efforts.
If your service sucks and people know it, you won't be in business to make big $$. You will have to spend more money changing peoples mind about calling you, instead of being their first choice. Network, Network, Network!!!!! Also, read...."How to win friends and influence people" by Dale Carnegie Check out the website. Follow his instructions and become more successful that ever thought my friend. |
