Okay...I have found through reading the posts that different regions have different "industry lingo" and this has caused some confusion in helping eachother out.

For instance ....the bait and switch is not upselling and upselling is not bait and switch.

Anyway...to the real point...

I would like everybody who has created and ran a successful marketing campaign with at least a 2 to 3 response rate (I know this is very low but it will build a business) to post what they did and how to do it. 

We can get this topic running with great ideas where anybody can pick and choose and run with it.

And YES Nightrider...telemarketing works for you so please post it and how you obtain your 50% response rate.

Here is a simple way that I have been able to turn a customer into a cheerleader.  45% of them referred 1 or more customers to my books through this method.

When you get back to the office, sit down and write a Thank You card to each of your customers thanking you for choosing your company and that you look forward to servicing their carpets for years to come.

Also, be sure to include a comment about something that you had "small talk" over. For instance...if they just bought a new house...say something like..."Congratulations on your new house, you made a GREAT choice!"

Finally, insert 2 or 3 business cards and ask for the referral (you should ask for the referral while inside your customers house as well) by stating something like...."I have also enclosed some business cards so that your friends and family can enjoy clean carpets as well.  We look forward to servicing all of your referrals."

To all of your success...

Kris

NOTE <edit>: The Thank You cards should be Hand Written as well!

I wish all of you the best of luck in your businesses!

You're wrong ( cutpile Kris ) all these posts have alot to do with carpet cleaning

I think we are all pros here and know enough about a carpet not to always have to talk about one.

These posts are supposed to be fun, one on one , carpet cleaner to carpet cleaner, businessman to bussinessman, and light to heavy trade humor.

When people have a serious question, many come to the rescue, and many make a joke of it........that's what makes everyone comming back to post

Let me write you a Thank You note Kris :

We at KleenKuip would like to thank you kriss for posting here on this forum site. If there is anything management can help you with please do not hesitate to contact us.Your problems are our problems and if we don't have the solution, then the problem is all in your head, get medical attention, take a pill, relax, and have a nice day

I've said it before but I'll say it again:

Thank you cards, refferal bonuses, clean it like its yours, be kind and courteous.

In addition, when you do their refferals do the same.

CCT, UFT, OCT, CRT, RRT, WRT, SMT, FSRT, JTC, JSR, JWR, MTC a great life, if you don't weaken.
