Here is  an advertising idea for you to increase accounts in your local service area. You have all seen them, the people standing on street corners with sandwich boards advertising a variety of products. Have you thought about doing this for your service route business? It's very inexpensive to create a sign and I am sure you can find a reliable person to act as a human billboard for you, on a commission basis, Meaning, if you get new accounts from this form of advertising, you pay them according to how many you get. Just ask new inquiries-turned-customers, how they heard about your service when they contact you and you begin servicing them.

We would love your feedback. If you have already tried this form of advertising, let us know by discussing it in the forums.
