Post flyers around neighboorhoods and Go to your community center and post flyers there because a lot of families go to community centers and families could use the extra help sometimes. also retirement homes are good for people that have trouble getting around as well, also e-mail your friends your advertisement and have them frwrd it to their friends and so on so on

You should put up flyers at places like the dry cleaners or shops. Basically they should say something along the lines of "Don't want to waste time picking up your dry cleaning? - Call x for..." Basically, that way you provide an answer to the problem at the exact time it's needed. Cheers, Ivan www ...

It is essential for any business to have a website. It adds legitimacy, makes people feel more comfortable doing business with you when they can explore your business on their own, and allows more people to find you to utilize your services. You can get a domain name, a FREE website and FREE hosting for less than $10/yr right now at www ... $10 is definitely worth the added customers having a presence on the Internet will bring! Good luck!

Perception is everything. For potential clients to let you into their homes and lives to do this kind of work, they will need to place their trust in you. If you're going to earn a good reputation, any advertising you do had better be well coordinated and professional. Start with a simple website, a nice looking business card, and maybe have a graphic made for your vehicle. (I beg you NOT to put a sign on your lawn.) Your customers are going to be people who need your services, but can also afford them. That's not everyone. Focus on time-starved business professionals. Advertise where they work, have lunch, and run their errands. Target the customers you want to attract. Try to stay off the radars of people who can't afford you. If I can be of any help to you, please feel free to contact me. I own a creative services agency that helps small businesses market themselves for success.
