Hey everyone,

This will be my second year of doing lawns full time. I have used door hangers, adwords, craigslist, fliers, direct mailings, business cards, the signs on my truck, my website, newspaper, fliers in stores, and ect for advertisement. I have done rather well but I am interested in hearing some creative and knew ways of advertising. Does anyone have any new and very effective ways of advertising?

Thanks,
Tim Oezer

Lawn care business tips
Tim,

What are you doing to gain more referrals and sell more to the current customers you have? This might be the untapped market.

Steve,

I am currently offering $25 off the first months bill for any customers who refer a friend that signs up for a seasonal lawn care package. I am also offering the same offer to all my snow removal customers.

Thanks,

What is it about your current advertising that makes you want to try something new?
