| Generally your customers..... sort of thing... where are they coming from? Assuming some word of mouth, some the tile store, some from family and friends etc.
Just wondered if anybody has found a new method? | Dan  |

| Mainly only work for builders and architects, got a good relationship with them so cut out domestic work, got a bit fed up looking and pricing jobs like kitchen walls at £200 and the customer telling me they are getting 4 or five quotes....DID MY HEAD IN  |

| Hi Dan
I'm going to be starting work on my own in a few weeks now so I'm hoping to get all my work from word of mouth through local builders. Luckely iI live in a small town & have been working for various builders here as a general builder/labourer for a about 8 years now. I'm hoping to Give out my business cards to any local building contractors, property developers, PLUMBERS we've worked for in the past & the local Travis & perkins builders merchant.
I'm hoping not to do too much private customer work so trying to concertrate on getting my cards to the trades.
Will let you know how it all goes. | | |
