What are some MARKETING ideas for a new cleaning business?
I recently started my own cleaning business and would greatly appreciate any unique marketing ideas anyone could suggest. I have already passed out fliers, put an ad in the paper, and posted on craigslist. If you can think of anything else - please let me know!! Thanks!

1. take advantage of bulletin boards in other local businesses
get business cards and hand out to everyone you meet--hairdresser, grocery checker, mechanic, etc. Include school and church contacts.
2. Good luck with your new cleaning business. With being the owner of this company you can set yourself apart in the beginning from all of the other cleaning businesses, by being unique in what you have to offer your clients.
My suggestions would be to:
1. Think organic, use environmentally safe cleaning products only. Market yourself as being different and unique, and develop a business plan to clean your clients homes and businesses using only products that are chemical free and environmentally safe.
2. Advertise on your car or van that you use only chemical free and environmentally friendly products.
3. Set up a client referral system.
4. Put in your search browser, (free advertising + your city) This will bring up a lot of areas you can advertise your business for free online
5. Think about having your own website to advertise
Hope this helps.
3. get a website.
summit website to yahoo local and google .com
summit articles about your business.
without a website people don't take you serious.
make a first impression with your own website,business cards,customized hats and shirts with company name.
after all that is done ,summit your url to drive traffic to your site.
a good way to drive traffic to your site is
