Some people offer demos to show the bigger customers, might be worth offering that, be worthwhile specially if you get a block paved carpark on a annual clean or similar :)

To be honest i don't think there's alot of people dedicated to this.

Alot of the people i here are windows cleaners etc and just offer drives and patios as an extra.

All i'd do it make sure you try and keep a customer.

Ie: do a good job and tell them you'll book them in again in 12 months or so, over time you'll have a good client base.

If you have time get some leaflets drop round a few areas then revisit with a bit of doorknocking.
