FOR THOSE SERIOUS ABOUT STARTING & RUNNING A BUSINESS, “THE RIGHT WAY”Whether your focus is part time or full time - this business is a lot of fun and rewarding. Train at your own pace and enjoy what you're doing on a day to day basis. Take days off to go play when you want them. How many people do you know that really make decent money and actually get the time off they need to enjoy the rewards of their money? “To me a lot of money is worthless if you can’t have days off to use it to have a life.”

The Entire System Is Explained in Easy-to-Understand Steps! Every aspect can be likened to "Paint by the Numbers" for making money with your own High End Business! Plus, here's how you can quickly earn back every cent of your investment and make a profit too!

Once you have practiced making samples and feel confident with a variety of winning finishes that you feel strongly enough to market, place your ads, and get the ball rolling. One job is all you need to cover your package cost and still make a hefty profit. The rest is daily fine tuning while you progress, and any new sales will start the excitement for what you can really make of your new schedule on a yearly basis!!!

Primarily home owners and those with a new home under construction.

Conservatively, well over $4,000.00 per week working 4 to 6 hours a day with a 2-person team.

In my opinion and by testing year after year, online or print classified ads are still the number one starting point method of reaching large amounts of people while allowing yourself to heavily target the range of travel you want to work within. Ads are a solid way of getting started and fill in the blanks throughout the year. YouTube videos with "Keyword Titles" and Home & Garden Trade Shows are the second fastest start up methods.

Travel saving TIP!!! Make samples of all the products you want to market and have them displayed at your home or office for others to see. By doing this you can save time sorting out the kind of curious shoppers from the serious shoppers who really want to get work done and are doing their due diligence to find out what their options are.

When potential customers call my office, I always listen to their needs and follow up explaining that most of the services we offer are charged by the square foot and if they know their measurements I can give them an exact cost over the phone. I also let them know that I will double check the measurements when I start the job. After that said I will also let them know that the best thing is for them to stop by my showroom so they can see exactly what all the finishes look like. At this point of a conversation I can usually tell whether the person is slightly curious verses really wanting to get work done and just not 100% sure of what they want it to look like. Once I have explained the showroom process, I also let them know that once they see all the finishes it will be a lot easier for me to stop by their house to make my recommendations. Once I look at their surrounding colors I can make my recommendations based off the patterns they liked at my showroom. By looking at their surrounding colors I can fine tune a pattern that they like by adding the perfect variety of colors to flow with what they have.

For those starting out there’s two ways of looking at going out for a free estimate when every phone call comes in. By doing so it’s not likely that every estimate will lead to the close of a sale, but over the long haul you will get extra work because some of the curious shoppers may get to a point where they really are ready or in the mean time they simply refer you to a friend because they liked your personality and your courtesy in sincerely trying to help them.

After Classified Ads my number one success for growth has always been existing customers (word of mouth). For long term success, this should always be your number one focus!

The second best means of marketing for this business is Trade Shows. In Phoenix, there are a lot of shows throughout the year but there are three solid shows put on by Maricopa Home and Garden Shows that I advertise in. These three shows bring in more than enough work for myself and the contractors who purchase materials from me. Trade Shows are effective for many reasons. First, it allows for you to bring a mini show room to the people, and it allows the people to get to know you and your traits first hand.

If you create a display that shows quality work and is better than what other competitors are offering your work will speak for itself. (Having a top-notch display is doable, even for starters.) One thing I do, even to this day is observe and consider those advertising at every show and throughout the world. By doing this I know what’s new and what’s a winning look or not. Then I can gauge my own efforts on how much farther ahead I must push in creating newer, neater, and better overall finishes staying a comfortable step ahead.

If you create a display and samples of your work with cleanness and quality, people will be attracted and impressed, and want to find out more. As they look to you for information this is really your chance to instill in their minds of important reasons other than just your talents of why they should consider choosing you to spend their money with.

Helpful tip to grow your business with less advertising cost: The day I quit focusing on mass production and getting through as many jobs as possible in a year, verses creating a solid friendship on each job has been night and day in our business. By creating friendships, customers have more appreciation for my efforts and, also get to know what I’m about on a more personable level, even the direction I am aiming at with my business. Through the years, I have been blessed with talents to do many kinds of projects, but trying to do everything makes it harder to stay organized and efficient day to day. A friend is more likely to consider what type of word of mouth advertising will be helpful rather than a distraction.
