The only real way I have found of genrating business is leg work. Get your self known to local businesses like conservatory compnies kitchen/bathroom showrooms, plumbers, joiners and the like.

Business card drops work well for me.

What customer, where, and when ?


Basically, just think about who might need tiling work done and get out there and tell them by whatever means you choose.

Leaflet drops through doors, call other tradesmen, etc etc.
