Title: Winning new business?
Post by: Mark Edwards on December 06, 2007, 03:13:15 pm

How are you winning new business?

What works and what does not?

Has anyone tried anything unconventional and had a result?

I am struggling when it comes to generating new business.

I'm thinking of adopting a Cosa Nostra approach and building a monopoly of violence. You know the sort of thing, "accidents will happen", carpets getting bloodstains, customers falling into the solution tank etc. etc.

Anyway you lot, remember the carpet cleaner's omerta - and tell no one.
