New phone book arrived today, 4 years ago there were about 6 pages of display ads for carpet cleaning, from full page, half page and on down, (I was spending about 30k/yr)   The new book has only one display ad about 1"x2".  Carpet cleaners have seen yellow page usage die out almost completely, our target market is all online searching now.]]> Fri, 14 Oct 2011 16:36:38 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=164453&title=30k-marketing-budget#164453 <![CDATA[30K marketing budget : You will find some of your people...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=163263&title=30k-marketing-budget#163263 Author: Soil Lint Green

You will find some of your people turn to the web.  Others see ads on TV.  Some work from ads delivered to their door or mailbox.  Consumers are not a single herd, they are broken into several herd heading in different directions from what I have observed.

website is good, few websites is better. Also buy yourself DSLR camera and some lenses (or just a video camera) and shoot some videos about your company, before/after pictures so you can show it to your customers. It works better if they can see it but not only hear it from you.]]> Thu, 02 Dec 2010 09:41:15 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=162439&title=30k-marketing-budget#162439 <![CDATA[30K marketing budget : All I can say is to stay way from...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=162411&title=30k-marketing-budget#162411 Author: vacman2000

All I can say is to stay way from places that other carpet cleaners advertise, unless you are the first ad to be seen
When I loked at starting up in Minnesota, I was going to get a small moped, have someone go around and postinging them in the under part of their mail box, secret is to fit a tracker to the bike to ensure they actually do the job.

Do you continue to use ValPak?  Would you say the response is as good as when you started, better, or working but at a reduced rate?]]> Wed, 01 Sep 2010 23:52:31 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=161458&title=30k-marketing-budget#161458 <![CDATA[30K marketing budget : I started with 2K and used ValPak...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=161436&title=30k-marketing-budget#161436 Author: TulsaCarpetCleaner

I started with 2K and used ValPak and a website (ranked with SEO). I referenced the website demo videos and before and after pics on my ValPak ads. It worked like a charm. My business took off right away.]]> Wed, 01 Sep 2010 07:57:40 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=161436&title=30k-marketing-budget#161436 <![CDATA[30K marketing budget : Even if you don&#039;t have a...]]> https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=160437&title=30k-marketing-budget#160437 Author: Soil Lint Green

Even if you don't have a job to do, have the van on busy roads where the signage can be seen.  It is a billboard on wheels.  Starbucks is a great place to start out early in the morning with your company shirt on and a business card holder on the side of the van.  Busy working stiff both male and female venture there.  If they have $4 to blow on a coffee drink they make enough to enlist your services.]]> Mon, 28 Jun 2010 11:07:29 +0000 https://www.kleenkuip.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=6299&PID=160437&title=30k-marketing-budget#160437
