Started Buisness Need Info

Hello,

Fliers, doorhangers, newspaper ad. For commercial work, i found that pound'n the pavement and going from business to business with a small demo, or a good sale's pitch works pretty good. Good luck with it!!

go big or stay home

If you want to give away demos here is my view on how best to do that.

Take a dirty carpet removed from a hallway.  Clean one side using your method, leave the other side alone.  The uncleaned side represents their carpet before, the cleaned side is their carpet after you perform your magic.  Now cut that carpet and trim into sample swatch sizes.  Put your business card or label on the opposite side.  You might want to include Before/After labels on the back side just so they don't confuse what your meaning is.

This is your brain.  This is your brain on drugs.  Remember that effective campaign?

Give away the swatches, not free demos.  Labor saving, gives the same effect in your presentation and takes less time.  I do not believe they are as interested in watching how you do it as seeing the end result, the Readers Digest version is good enough in today's age of people with short attention spans making business decisions.  Nothing against them, just adjusting mediums to carry out the same message.  They would jump to the end of a novel and then decide if it is worth their time to read the book at all.

Food for thought. 

But whatever is working for you, keep on doing it.  Lee  Trevino would address the ball with a baseball swing, not the accepted swing.  But with years of practice he mastered his way.  Mastering your method is what allows you to play with the pros, not going through life doing whatever everyone else does. 

Digest that.
