Kicking around the idea of an Early Bird Special next month

[Desk Jockey]

I was thinking of something like clean two rooms and get a set of stairs free ($42.00 value) or clean 4-rooms and get two sets of stairs free ($84.00 value).

So far we have had unseasonable weather and if it continues I see no reason why we shouldn't kick start the cleaning season. I think I'd have an April 30 expiration date.

What do you think a percentage off might work better? A dollar amount? We get good response with dollar amount with a minimum purchase amount but I thought about trotting this out.

 

[Mikey P]

yeah, with our reduced capacity and lack of rain, I'm already regretting sending out our 20% off card, which hits today.

 

[Desk Jockey]

You know how it always goes. You're down and you'll get slammed!

 

[mirf]

alot of homes do not have 2 sets of stairs here. What about buy three rooms get one free

 

[Shane Deubell]

How about combo packages instead?

Like 2 rooms and sofa or tile/ carpet, whatever.
Ohhh duct cleaning and carpet

After talking with Dan we may make it into a Facebook offer.

We've not run a special on Facebook yet and it will give us an opportunity to see if that is viable vehicle for offers. We know it works for branding, we had a post over the weekend that got 166 likes and was viewed buy 12K people but no there was no direct response tied to it.

You got to expend and think out of the box , Richard.
Yes, I know you're from KS. But would it hurt to expand to new territories?

Three rooms and a free haircut.
Five rooms -free foot massage.
Entire home to include HVAC, upholstery and trimmings- A sing along with Mike and L. Wagner.

Before you rule it out, please run it by Dan.

I'm offering pet grooming with any carpet cleaning.

The SS upholstery tool is hands down, the best.

If I was your tech and you tried to give away my "stair cleaning" money, I would clean them with my arse!
Cleaning stairs sucks & hurts!

Plus, a tech can power through a normal set of stairs in what? Maybe 10-20 minutes tops. If paid on commission the tech would make more cleaning stairs than carpet.

Give away something easy, like a hallway or room of scotchgard.

Why not "train" your new customers?

Offer free protector!

Protect your investment in Cleaning this winter!

 

[Desk Jockey]

Hourly no comish! Protector is a good one if they see value in the product.

This is what I waz thinkin.

Post the picture and link it back to our website on the web specials page.

 

[Ron K]

I'd say, looking at, it give them value not FREE! Looks kind of Val Pacish!

 

[Royal Man]

I

his is the one I'm sending out.

 

[Desk Jockey]

Nice Dave! I figure we will start out with a Facebook post and see how it does organically. Then after a few days boost the post.

It will be less than a penny per impression served so for the same money spent I can reach 20x the people.

I'm a cheap bass-turd.

 

[Spurlington]

March Special !! Enter to win a Crappy Carpet Spotting Machine !! Receive a ticket for each room purchased. Drawing will be held April 1st.

This is what we ended up with. The top image is one that is boostable and meets Facebook's 20% rule.There was also a brief story from Dan about Cooper and the messes he creates. LOL

The bottom image is sent to anyone that claims the offer.


Its doing fairly well, we started it Saturday around noon and have (21) that have claimed it as of this morning. I set the initial date range for 3-days with a $200.00 budget. We have spent a little over $100.00 so far and the image was served to over 10,000 targeted people. I'll let the campaign finish up and we may reboost it through the rest of the week. The Sun is shining here and mild warm weather is on the way so it's looking like good timing.

Looks good and results seem good too.
