Keeping a steady flow of work is important to any business, especially service businesses. Find out grow your client list for a lawn care business.
Instructions
1. Networking: This is an important step for any type of business. By networking with business owner's that share the same client base (excavators, landscapers, etc.) you will be in a position to receive a steady flow of work.
2. Referrals: Encourage referrals from you current clients by offering a discount for each client they send your way. Try $10 off your services for each new client.
3. Real Estate Agents: These types of professionals deal directly with property owner's on a regular basis. They have clients that have just bought a home that may need your services, as well as clients that may be selling homes that need great looking lawns. Stress the fact that you will provide same-day service (if possible) as this will put you ahead of the competition that may require an appointment.
4. Quality Service: As long as you provide a great service, your business will continue to grow. Never leave any items or debris behind, even if it was there when you started. Also, provide a few extras at no charge, such as removing branches from the lawn, etc. This will provide you with many future referrals.
