I don't really bother with facebook for gaining customers.  They're like "Any1 now any cheep winda cleaners?" and I think "I'd rather not have you as a customer!"

I know that's an over-generalisation, but our best work doesn't come from faceache.

Ditto - the worst customers I've had originate from that dreadful site - and I'm not even on there.

Ooh, I am I forgot - I joined some god awful windowcleaning site frequented by a clown who sells poles and likes to swear a lot.

I pay £1.00 a day for 5 days every month and I get about 3000people viewing the post and 200 people click it to read.
That for me is a lot better than leaflets.
The trick to find out whether the customers a messer or not is say " are you just looking for a good one off clean or do you want them cleaning monthly?"
Straight away you find out the messers

The way I use it for myself, it just heightens my profile and what I do.  Had a few enquiries etc, through following and being followed.  But the more people you follow, you get so many tweets, you dont actually read - I dont reply to anything, but I do get a bit more awareness of what the business does..  Its just another marketing tool.  Some of the enquiries I get from people are not on any forums....

I agree with Tosh & DW. There's a woman in Basingstoke that talks about paid for boosts on Facebook, but as far as I can see she only picks up one off gutter type jobs which isn't what I target at all. That said I do have a Facebook page of sorts.

Each to their own mate, I often get one off facia and conservatory jobs aswell but 90% i turn them into customers anyway so it's good.
Like I say it's all about wording your messages right to try and find out the messers from the good customers:)

Must admit 8weekly Ive had more enquiries from Twitter, but then I havent of late put myself out for more work, marketed myself etc.   If I were I think I would use any medium platform going, but would have to qualify every enquiry before I took it seriously

Yea I did PM you Shrek, but I thought it may be a bit naughty advertising via here.  So you have  my details if you need anything.

Moderator's note @Katy

If you want your website advertised please discuss with forum admin.

Just because someone may offer services that people may or not be interested in don't mean they can't join a forum and partake in posts does it surely.  ::)roll

Of course they can but not should include their website in their signature line.

So how does that work? Im not alllowed a signature? Even though I haven't mentioned once about my website, surely its up to each individuals choice whether they click on a link?  ???  Also I have parted with money for advertising on this site - so Im not so sure if that rule applies - Im trying to stay non bias - just thought after a while (maybe 2 years) I would just see what was happening with the industry
