If you're in the landscaping business, you could always
use more business. Customers move, change jobs, and
disappear for all sorts of reasons. You constantly have
to bring on new customers to make up for those who leave
- even if you're the best landscaping there is. It's
not enough to do a great job -- you have to find a way
for prospects to know that you run a great landscaping
service and how to contact you. Will magnetic vehicle
signs help or hurt?
If you have a landscaping company, chances are, you
need all the new business you can get. Customers move,
change jobs, and disappear for all sorts of reasons.
You constantly have to bring on new customers to make
up for those who leave - even if you're the only landscaping
in town. It's not enough to do a great job -- you
need to figure out a means for prospects to know that
you have a great landscaping company service and how
to locate you. One of the best ways to handle this
marketing/advertising need is to get some attractive
magnetic vehicle signs.
Give me a moment of your time to understand how magnetic
truck signs can bring you more business, and imagine
your landscaping company reaping the rewards:
1. Your magnetic vehicle signs create an immediate
response. You don't need to wait for printing and
distribution like with yellow pages or magazine advertising.
With a carefully constructed marketing message, you'll
get calls immediately. Several of my clients have
received calls from people driving right next to them
to see if they could schedule a time for a bid.
You can't get much faster than that! The magnetic
signs absolutely get the job done and they will pay
you back time and time again.
2. When a neighbor sees your sign, they believe you're
trustworthy. Since someone they trust has already
hired you, they'll just work directly with you and
save time. A number of my clients have get asked to
come down the street to give an estimate while they’re
delivering an estimate to their neighbor.
3. Magnetic signs are a one time expense. After you
have your magnetic truck signs , they're yours forever.
Unlike newspaper ads or yellow pages marketing, there’s
no need for monthly payment to keep the customers
coming in. Simply by doing the driving you already
do or keeping your truck parked in a good location,
you are putting your name in front of people who are
probably have the need for the same services you're
already providing.
4. The signs are easily removed. Neighborhood associations
limit the kind of signage that can be displayed. Since
you can take the magnetic signage easily - you instantly
solve the problem. Just take your magnetic sign from
your vehicle, and everything is good.
5. With eye-catching and appealing magnetic vehicle
signs, your company stands out from the others and
get recognized. The key to this is spending enough
time planning the layout of your truck's magnetic
sign. You need to work with a sign maker who will
partner with you to create a powerful marketing message.
You are an expert at landscaping, and you deserve
to partner with a magnetic sign maker who is an expert
at bringing you more customers. Request and review
a proof before your signs are finished.
6. Your signs are easy-to-maintain and long-lasting.
Simply follow the directions your magnetic sign company
provides. Every month or so, the magnetic truck signs
need to be removed, cleaned with warm soapy water,
and then air-dried. Quite a few of my clients have
had magnetic signs for years that look as great as
they did when they were made.
7. This is an excellent, cost-effective tool for
attracting customers. Magnetic signage is so much
more affordable than yellow pages or newspaper advertising.
The cost of a few magnetic truck signs will only come
to about $80 - that's much cheaper than yellow pages
or newspaper advertising.
Think about the opportunity here: since magnetic
signs are so cost-effective, once you enlist the support
of your friends and family , you could have a fleet
of cars all around your town advertising your landscaping
service and phone number. That would bring in so much
business you might need to expand just to keep up
with the demand.
Before forking out one red cent on your magnetic
signs, though, you have to understand that not all
magnetic truck sign companies or magnetic vehicle
signs are equal. You need to review the consumer message
available on http://www.magnetic-signs.info prior
to selecting a sign maker. You'll save yourself a
great deal of effort, cash, and ulcers.
