All hail the Condo King.....
Instead of at 1600 to post ads... try doing it earlier. Most of my calls from CL comes from whenever I post around noon-1400
Interesting florin.. I will try that, I figured by 4:00 people start getting home, and getting on the computer.. I will try that tomorrow... still have not received a single call form Craigs list..
and my site has only been up for 2 days and I have had 294 views... 1 call...lol
People spend more time on the internet at work than they do at home.

I have never had anyone say they got us off of craigslist. But for every one of your ads on the first page of google, thats 1 of your competitors ads that gets kicked. Thats why i like them, and the other free ad sites....Merchant circle, ziply, hotfrog, etc...
Exactly!
I put mine in the morning and at noon. Almost all my calls are before 5 and they do it from work. You just might be in a area that CL is not as popular. In mine it is really good. I made over 60,000 gross off of CL alone last year and I was part time. Once I was booked I would stop advertising until I had another slot open up.
But like Scott said... Get as many ads from various advertising areas on front page and it will boot out the comp.
Now instead of stopping, you can just hire more guys to cover the extra work!! :yes:
$60,000 off craigslist alone? Thats amazing.
Finishing up the 1st half of April schedule today: (+ filed tax extention)
20 rooftop air filter accounts (mostly small - only 3 w/ more than 5 units)
1 residential :saai:
11 of those are coil cleanings also :yes:
1 pleated filter account (2 units only)
The farthest one is 19 miles away.
$2027 :biggrin:
Chris and I are working alone today.
I'm guessing 7 hrs. because of all the driving.
We're leaving at 9am - start the clock. I'll be back when we're done.
Dang tony... Need a hand :biggrin:
Whew! Got er done!
Didn't get out till 9:30 and added the following:
Chris walked in spoke and dropped off brochures at the following for concrete cleaning:
Pawn Shop 1, Pawn Shop 2, Pawn Shop 3, Pawn Shop 4 - because he found out they have just been bought out and are having inspections next week. He's already done two of them. Pawn Shop 2 had already called him for work before we got home.
Animal Hospital with paint ball spots on it for building wash
Jack in the Box - Dumpster Demo with stencil - the Manager will be in tomorrow to see it.
Arbys
KFC
Taco Bell
Small Bar/Casino Demo w/stencil. Owner will be in tomorrow morning to see.
Lowes - Just had their concrete done. Gum all over the place, NOT HAPPY! They did a walk around. He wants a demo tomorrow when the other managers are there. (MONTHLY WORK!)
Small Bar/Casino has rust running down the side, Chris went in to push the building wash. The manager said he just signed a contract to get it painted but would like to talk to Chris later this week about concrete cleaning.
Chris spent 1/2 hr on the phone with the regional manager of Budget Suites. There are six of them here. He cleaned a small area of one of them two weeks ago. Today he got a call from the regional manager for a meeting tomorrow at 9am to discuss maintenance on all of them if they can strike a deal Chris is on FIRE!:worshippy:
I had a large account go out of business the FIRST day of my roundtable. I heard it on the news and they skipped town. Today as we completed a nearby account I went in and found the building occupied by new owners. I upped the price by 20% and signed them on for a year. Sweet!
Plus we finished all the accounts we set out to do today. :biggrin:
AND ate at Arby's for lunch, Taco Bell for dinner and spent 1/2 hr in Lowes looking for "wet floor" signs which they don't carry at Lowes.
WHEW! What a good day. I'm all caught up after the RT and it feels GOOOOOOOOOD!!!
Whew! Got er done!
