Just thought people might increase the budget next year,
Even if it's just to keep up with inflation.

i decideed yesterday im gonna drop a 1000 leaflets a week, and 200 letters to business a month hiring a canvasser too, so my marketing is gonna probably be about 4000 next year, but hoping to get to a level where i can employ so i need it

My budget for next year for advertising will be £0.00

I may buy a few business cards if i run out but thats it.

i will continue to get my free flyers, cards and T-shirts from vista print, thus i will pay a couple of times for the postage ( under 5 quid a time )

Im not sure about continuing with yell.com advertising.. i'll have to see how it goes.

However i will be stepping up my flyer campaign. Got 5,000 A5 double sided on 250gsm for £104, designed by me  Will be dropping them to the areas i wish to target on a tri monthly basis. (Dont want to p everyone off with a leaflet every month). And also do canvassing when i have the time.

I will also be pursuing a email campaign to all letting agents every 3 months for end of tenancy cleaning which i do also.  Including a mail shot to them once.

Im also waiting on my SAFEcontractor registration, so once i have that i can add that to my commercial flyers (i have seperate commercial and residential flyers) and get a mail shot sent to specific companies i wish to target.

I may also design a specific gutter clearance flyer - and market that, along side the window cleaning.

2009 its gonna be great!

Pretty minimal advertising to be honest probably spend forty pounds or so on business cards to push my gutter cleaning along. Although i've got a dreadful week next week i'm normally pretty busy. Working on your own you can only take on so much work.
