Offer discounts and coupons<\/h3>\n<p>Always give a discount for the first cleaning. Print flyers and distribute them to as many people as possible in your targeted area.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to this, buy advertisement space in the local newspaper and create an ad offering a discount for the first cleaning. Even when you create an invoice for your client, you should add a discount for the next cleaning from time to time. If you have an\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.invoiceberry.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">InvoiceBerry<\/a> account, you can do that in the &#8220;Terms and Condition&#8221; or in the &#8220;Notes to Customer&#8221; section.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that your professional image is extremely important in the cleaning industry. Always try to be the best in what you do and the clients will eventually come and recommend you to their friends and colleagues, too.<\/p>\n<p>Contact your clients after the first\u00a0cleaning and ask for their\u00a0feedback. Don&#8217;t ignore a negative feedback, try to improve it the next time.
