Re: Service


I'd stop and talk to them.

In fact, last Friday, I was cruising by a past customers house to drop off an estimate for drilling an irrigation well. The neighbors had a hose strung from one house to the other neighbors house. My thought was that if I knocked, maybe I can put in a new submersible pump or something. Turns out the guys well has been out for like 3 years now, and he hasn't had the money to deal with it. Anyway, a couple of my past clients are good friends of his, so, maybe the 20 minutes I spent talking to him about his well will get him to use us when he does have the money.

This subject has come up a lot over the last week. I have a competitor that is going to start a bore about 10 houses down from my house - and I never even got a 'how much do you charge?' phone call. I was talking to my wife about going down and knocking on the door to at least see how they got the other guys name - for the life of me I can't figure out how he gets as many jobs as he does. In the long run, my wife talked me out of it. However, I also had a sit down with a guy at Sandler Sales Institute on Thursday, and he encouraged me to go knocking on doors for things like that. He claimed he found is remodel contractor because the guy did the neighbors place and had the neighbor introduce him to the whole neighborhood.

My two cents.
