  • Today we're going to talk about the #1 low cost option to market your lawn care business successfully, and in my opinion, that is with residential flyers! Passing out flyers can be one of the easiest and most effective ways to get the word out about your new business, all while not breaking the bank!
    Whether it's your first year in business or you're just marketing a new service, 10 cent flyers can go a long way! This was the exact template (a little cleaned up for 2021 of course) that we used to secure over 20 customers and $18K in business my first season! Mind you, we didn't have a clue what we we're doing back then!
    Whether you use our template or you make your own design, a high quality flyer and some good hustle can definitely earn you new customers! You don't have to have fancy postcards or EDDM campaigns to grow, all you need is effort and a design that is eye catching, and you're off to the races!

    I did flyers 4 years ago. I printed out the whole pack of neon paper and put 50 a day in newspaper boxes, in between storm door and frame, though door handles, or even in some cases under a flower pot or rock. Maybe 1 call per 100 flyers but you have to start somewhere. I still have a couple of those customers.

    These are a must have for starting your business. We still use them because we are in an area of a lot of second homes and have no idea when people will see them. We use to spend 400 on door hangers and have most them get ruined before people ever saw them.

New clients will buy the equipment you need! Or do a little bit of both! It's that time of the year! ADVERTISE! ADVERTISE!! ADVERTISE!!! ADVERTISE!!!!

Half was from talking to people that were outside of there house in the yard or heading to there cars. The other half was calls. We have ALOT of other Lawn service companies in our area. There is enough work for everyone who once to work. You have to get out and talk to people! Also I caught a sale on Vista print! 5000 door hangers and 500 business cards all for 50% off! total was $170!
