Hey folks,
Have been doing pretty good all in all for my first five weeks in business, better than my expectations. First two weeks I had two jobs, then three the third week, then five per week the last two weeks. My goal was five a week to hit within the first two months, so I've accomplished that and the money has been pretty good at this entry level.
But it's Monday and I have no jobs this week, my next one isn't until March 6th. I've reached out to my existing customers to offer discounted upholstery cleaning should they need it. What's the best way to hustle up more leads? Everything I've gotten so far has been from referrals, my work has spoken for itself and I ended up with raving reviews on a few local mom Facebook groups that generated a lot of messages, which turned into a handful of tire kickers but also a handful of jobs. It was exciting to hear all the notifications on my phone going off.
I've been thinking about forking over for a Google add. I live in the bay area Silicon Valley, so most of my customers are tech savvy. What would you do if you were in my situation as a new company to get more jobs?
Thanks guys,
- Bret
