Question Coupons and EDDM HELP?
I decided to go with a coupon on a post card for EDDM. Im using the 199 special for 20 windows inside and out.
I had a couple of questions with that special.
1. when its 12 little panes in a window how many windows do you count for that? or storm windows?
2. what if its 2 -4 story stuff?
3. what if its less than 20 windows?
4. what do you try to push as an up sell to make more money on these coupons?
also I ordered 10,000 11x8 for EDDM retail post cards. Any tips on how you would mail them out?
There is a retirement area of 4,000 people around me but its 125 to 300k homes.
other areas that have more income and doctors and lawyers. would you do 5k in mailings each month? or 3k to the same area in every 3 weeks? I was thinking of spreading it out all around to see what areas respond the most and then focus on them in the spring? im hoping for a .3 to .5% return on work from the EDDM the first time around.
I was wondering how you guys handle these things any tips would be awesome. This is my first time doing a mail out and first time using a coupon.

I have a window cleaning business based in Hollywood that is number 1 in Los Angeles according to Yelp.
Yelp may not be popular everywhere in the country but in California, it's the go-to in finding a reputable contractor or business.
I've garnered 41 reviews; everyone of them 5 Stars!
Being number 1 in the second largest city in the country, I get approximately 15 calls a day and I only work every other day. (I'm 62 years old)
That is: one house that I clean for every 30 calls. I have no employees.
I've tried hiring but get either salty dogs with unbreakable bad habits or newbies that are just looking for work till they find something better.
My company grossed 6 figures last year. I have several A-List celebrity accounts.
What am I getting to? I want to sell the business.
It's a diamond in the rough.
The right proprietor with several employees could easily gross 1/2 million. That's right, I said it. $500,000.00!
Books are in order and I can verify the 15 calls a day.
I just don't know how to go about selling it.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks, Frank

Store Front Assist Tools
Over the years I have thought it would be fun and practical to develop different tools to make store front work easier. Such as a tool to safely hold neon signs back so we can clean. Or better sign holders. Especially sign holders that would allow changing high signs with a pole. Maybe special tools to help move displays away from the window so it can be cleaned. Or a device that would allow cleaning the insides where large displays that weigh a ton are put a foot away from the glass. Such tools would definitely give us the advantage.
