business cards, door hangers, flyers distributed in the paper, news paper adds, craigslist, google listing, yahoo listing, word of mouth,
Drive around and look for new businesses going up or places that look like they need work. call the owner and ask if they have a crew they use. sometimes u may get lucky. dont put anything in or on the mailbox. door hangers require walking alot if you want to be 100% certain they get to every house. when i was a kid, my dad was running for commonwealth atty. and made me pass out like 2000 flyers. i ended up dumping about 500 in the trash. theres no such thing as easy advertising. if you put in the sweat equity, it will pay off eventually.

Thanks for the info. I have been flyering like crazy and have landed a few spring clean ups and one full season acct. I was thinking about craigslist I have heard of mixed results w that. The good news is we did land a apartment acct today so that helps. Thanks again

Yeah I'm definatly going to put an ad on craigslist. I also checked into advance newspaper. its a small bi weekly paper. I found out I can place an ad in there for like 25 bucks. Yhe cool thing is it goes out to like 44,000 homes.
