Thread: $100,000

I saw a discussion on a referral program that Brian Welker uses. Not sure of all the details but it was a 3 and free set up. I think it was when they refer 3 friends who have you do work for them their next service is free.

couple of things to consider.

Look a at your pricing can you raise it a little bit?

for simplicity say you made your 50,000 on a $200 average ticket if you raised your prices to $220 on average that's an extra 5k. So look at the pricing

2. marketing your right more marketing should = more $ but be smart bad marketing can ruin you, so join the wcra

One thing I'm thinking of doing to gain a lot more referrals is "Don't be jealous" postcards to canvass the immediate area of residential jobs with.

Also, I have a referral program that for every $100 the referral spends, I give the referrer $10 off their next cleaning, actually works well too!


I'm looking to have a $100k (if not close to it) year as well.

I think customers respond better to this when it comes to referrals:

1) Immediate benefits
2) Face to face asking pressure

I think bumblebee has some type of system that he says gets him more than three referrals per client! Let's get him to spill his secrets!

Get more, charge more and join WCRA.

Raise your prices by about 4% every year. That's the average rate of inflation.

at least

And im making out business refurall cards to give to my customers this year. they simply write their name on it and give it to a friend or family member. When i recieve the card and the job is done i take 10% off the customers next cleaning. What do you guys think?

How did you make you first 50k? What advertising?
