How is it going fella's????
 
Calls are slowly starting to come in.....but it's not rushing yet.  One thing for sure I can say...addressed mail to past customers works like a charm.  I should have done it sooner.
 
Does anyone have any good Ideas to pick up some commercial work??? I Don't do much of it, but I'm going to need to do some this winter.??

Comercial this is how I get it. Local newspaper ads & going into the stores myself. Post cards are the best way to get repeat calles, without calling the people yourself. I did my post cards before thanksgiving and I was booked solid.

Retail sucks! Low prices, sh!ty hours, slow to pay. All my commercial work was built over time, mostly apt. complexes. My experience with one time cleaning of commercial was they were just looking for the cheapest price. Why not use your best source for leads? Talk to your residential customers. Many are executives or own their own business. Big smile
