Really bad befores and really good afters

I understand your situation but I would never use someone elses work. I did three roofs for free...thats right for free to learn and get photos. Knock on a door,explain what you will do and when they hear free you got your photos. My first flyers had no pictures....get going!

Your right about using others pictures, but a picture is worth a thousand words and since I'm just getting going on this the pic's would really help.

You can't find a free roof to clean? It would give you the experience and the true before and after. I'd send you some, but I don't know if any of mine classify as REALLY dirty or not? Not compared to some of what I have seen on here.

Tom you want guys to mail you photos,do a roof today have your own pictures in two hours. A picture is worth a thousand words,let them be your own words.

Why would I clean a roof for free where as I could sell them on a roof cleaning? Other then family I don't work for free other then in a certain situation(corner house of a development trying to stir interest). I was trying to get a jump on my flyers. I thought we were here to help each other, but that's alright.

how do you think we all got our first set of before and afters it was either a freebie or a material cost only job. It will cost you a total of 60bucks maybe and have your wife help you to save on labor and snap away. You have a painting business right? Call one of your customers up and offer them half price. We are here to help not spoon feed. Also i have learned it is a better before picture when you take it between 11-1pm the sun plays a big part of the shot. Make sure you mark a spot and take both the before and after in that exact position for the perfect shot.

We are here to help each other,if someone mails you photos good for you. I am just saying you can help yourself. Even better knock on the door sell them the roof cleaning and in two hours you have your own photos.I am trying to help you....did you get any photos mailed to you yet? How do you know if they will be good enough for your flyer..or does it not matter.You don't work for free? How is doing a roof to " benefit " you working for free? Any roof on any block will stir interest. I have taken and will continue to take some great advice from people on this board every day. But I would never promote any work on any flyer thats not my own. Your last thread sounds like you may be to " lazy " to help yourself, being a premium member does not mean putting down a hundred dollars and get it handed to you. I won't comment again on this thread,maybe im out of line but I don't think so. Good Luck to you....I have a feeling you are really going to need it!

Dude what is your problem??? I just wanted one freakin pic before and after to get a jump on my flyer and now you say I'm lazy and gonna need alotta luck! Its a pic of a house not the Mona Lisa who gives a crap if its my work or not its purely advertising. Dude you really need to lighten up.
