Let us begin with the problem of expanding your business and finding new clients. How much time do you invest advertising your company? Do you actually understand what marketing is? Most small business owners don't know the difference between marketing and advertising, they consider them to be one and the same thing.
Advertising is one small component of marketing. Marketing actually encompasses every aspect of your business that will involve consumer contact. So the way you offer your services, how you find clients, how you communicate to clients, how you charge your customers to the way you follow up with customers are all covered by marketing. Every thing your business does that touches your consumer is part of your marketing actions.

If you create adverts more effectively, answer the phone better, clean their carpets better, arrive promptly each and every time and remain in contact with each and every client, you'll be a success.
So how much time do you invest going over and enhancing your advertising and marketing activities? Do you have a marketing plan? You should be putting aside a number of hours per week to examine the way you operate your business so as to enhance your customer experience, and you should be exploring numerous marketing avenues for attracting new leads. Once you do you'll make more money.

Your own role ought to be to develop the company's service and also to grow its revenue and profits. Until such time as you release your self from full time cleaning, you will will not accomplish your objectives or benefit from your profits.
