Quickest Ways to Get Customers When Starting Out
-
Flyers and Door-Knocking:
- Flyers: While traditional, passing out flyers can still be effective. Ensure they are professionally designed to catch attention and avoid ending up in the trash.
- Door-Knocking: Though it may seem old-fashioned, it's a personal touch that many businesses overlook. Stand a few feet back, be respectful, and introduce yourself and your services.
-
Facebook Ad Strategy:
- Utilize Facebook Ads: As covered in our pressure washing business course, Facebook ads can significantly boost your customer base. It's a powerful tool for those serious about making a life change and committing to their business.
-
Professionalism and Persistence:
- Build Self-Esteem Momentum: Start by taking any job you can get to build confidence and gain experience. As you grow, begin to push your pricing limits. This will help you transition from the low-price market to a higher-priced one, maximizing your profits.
-
Understand Your Worth:
- Courage and Pricing: It’s important to challenge your beliefs about what constitutes a lot of money. Don’t undervalue your services based on preconceived notions. Experiment with higher pricing to see what the market can bear.
-
Avoid Doing Free Jobs:
- Charge for Your Work: While it might be tempting to offer free services to gain experience, this can undervalue your business. Reserve free work for family members or charitable causes, but charge customers to build a sustainable business.
