Advertising your Services

Saturday, January 10th, 2009

When advertising your Lawn Care Business, be sure to be very precise and upfront about what services and products it is that you offer.  After a potential customer reads your ad, if  they have to ask if you provide a service or what products it is that you use, then you might want to rewrite your ad.  Don’t make the mistake of placing the customer in the position of having to beg for information.  Most of them won’t, always remember, there are a lot of other folks that provide the same service that you do, the customer does not have to use you.  Always try to give them a reason to want your services.

Have you tried a Newsletter?

Tuesday, December 23rd, 2008

If you are trying to market your business, and you don’t have a newsletter, well why don’t you?  A newsletter is a good way to keep your name and your business in your customers mind.  Its also a good way to keep existing customers.  New customers are great, but some studies have shown that it costs 4 or 5 times more to get new customers, than it does to keep existing ones.  Try having coupons or specials from time to time, also get the e-mail addresses of your customers.  A newsletter delivered by e-mail is almost free, a printed newsletter has to be delivered by someone and will cost money or time or both.

While trying to keep marketing costs down, don’t forget that it costs a lot more to get a new customer than it does to keep existing customers. Use e-mail and come up with a once or twice a month newsletter, you could have coupons and specials. The reason for using e-mail is costs. E-mail is almost free, printed material is not, also if you use printed materials, the post office or someone has to deliver them..
