Ok guys and gals which has worked best for you? :D
We are already in Yellow Pages,done leaflet dropping,done leaflets in shop windows,no good at the old face to face business lol ::)
I know some will say knock on doors etc but believe me lol I would put off potential customers with the way i talk ::)
Anyhow its the con roof and upvc side we are wanting to push so any input as to best results from ads would be great :D
Thanks in advance...Pete

Have you got a sign written van?

Best money you can spend on advertising!
Also a high vis vest/jacket with your company details on the back works wonders and only costs a few quid.

You're putting yourself down Pete. You come across perfectly lucidly on here and that will come across to your potential custies.
Dress smart, smile wide and leave a card - that's it. They may not say yes there and then but they will later. (When they see your sign written van!)

get your buisness on gumtree, i get loads of work from it, better than any advertisment i have ever done, and it is all completley free, and no after sales calls like the rest of them

I agree, people are after a window cleaner not a Lawyer, so as long as your polite you'll be fine.

leaflets. Done very well. Prepare for the knockers. 10000 plus a few magazine adverts produced £25k p.a. in 14 months. Never canvassed once.
Vast majority from leaflets. plus the rest from www and yell. com. all are good. leaflets the best. You get good customers thru leaflets.

Thanks again guys.
Gazza no I didnt ring you mate.
Left the lady a quote but quoted a little above normal as we would have had to get hold of a triple from somewhere and she hasnt got back to us :(
Thanks anyway Gaz.

A weeks wages this bloke works for YELL.COM.

No only about £2,000 p.a. from yell.com . Same from website. The rest from leaflets and recos from leaflet customers.

Figures can be misleading - i got £1000 last year from one business card. It's the number of jobs we should be looking at not the turnover.
If Yell.com got me one job of £2000 all year then that's great.......... or is it? One job from them is pathetic really.
