Meeting potential customers

[KimKriel]

Okay!
I need advice, please?
We were planning on going out to meet potential residential customers with a packet of info and goodies the first weekend of Feb. but after all this time without any we finally got snow. So question is should we push ahead or wait till snow is gone?

I would still personaly go out. Many companies lose out on customers because of how late they go out. The earlier the better. Two examples, I sign up customers back in November and I know that TruGreen signs up customers in February.

It doesn't hurt to go out now and meet with them, and hopefully sign up some customers. Then ones that you don't get signed up for do a follow up phone call or mailer a week or two later.
