Dougyboy asked:


I own my own company and business is not as good as I want it to be. I am only working three days a week because I am not getting enough customers. I mainly want the landscaping and lawn care to increase in customers. I have vehicle magnets, cards, refrigerator magnets, and I occasionally go door to door advertising. I need some help on how to advertise and get lots of customers.

    offer a discount for people that recommend you and you get a job. for example 10% off next lawn mowing

    try some direct cold calls. Also, put flyers on cars in grocerys stores and malls.

    Offer your current clients a rebate for every new client they refer to you.

    Good Luck

    Flyers on doors, newspaper ads, business to business marketing, and asking your current customers for referrals and give your current customer a referral fee (small) for referrals. It takes time to build up clients-

    You will succeed.

    offer great competative prices. say if that guy down the road is offering to deliver mulch for say $100 offer for $75. Have a mid spring deal. A free lawn cut with every purchase of oh I dont know a mulching job. OR Advertise in the local newspaper. Give away free tshirts or pens. have cupon booklets available for each customer and charge $10.00. Or $100 dollars off your next tree cutting service.

    Do some free small jobs in the same area/neighbourhood with the condition that you may put a small sign on their lawn for a month or so.

    Good Luck!

    What type of clients do you want?

    Individuals?
    Businesses?

    Are your current clients on a recurring plan?
