Re: Getting Jobs


I do my own flyers. I had started with color but it was time consuming
and expensive. So I changed it to color paper and standard black writting.
I have a company deliver it door to door.

I print 5000 a month and cover only the city I want to target.
It runs me about $400 per month and we get tons of calls.
I have customers calling two weeks after the flyer was sent out.
I'm amazed at the people who keeps them and calls me two months
later. I actually see our flyer next to the phone.

I can't complain...it's working for us. We have studdy work.
We do not get all the customers. Some procrastinate, some
deside to get more estimates. But for the most part work has
been steady.
