Hey, I know that guy. When he falls off a ladder, he blacks out right before he hits the ground, right?

Design is the same on the cards, letterhead, trucks, hats, shirts, and bumper stickers. I don't do any advertising. All word of mouth and through various Govt. agencies, and cards in various places.
Forgot to add. Card design is the same but have different phone numbers depending on who's they are.

I do not buy cards anymore. I find the card size magnets are the way to go. Yeah they cost a bit more, but a magnet on a refrigerator is less likely to get lost.

You can buy the magnets, and put your card on them. Use them, they work.

I hang my cards in all feed stores, grocery stores, country stores, convenience stores, restaurants, I can find.

Give them to guys working for the power company, plumbers, ferriers, etc, etc, who may stumble on someone needing my services.

Seems to be working, ok.

BUT, if you have Robb build you a website, your phone will ring off the hook from what I understand from a mutual friend who can't keep up with the business since the new site was built. But, I just don't want THAT much business......I like being mostly retired and working around our farm.
