One day, in the not too distant future, you may be asked this question " There are a lot of roof cleaning companies in Tampa, so why should I hire yours"
The competition we currently face for the roof cleaning customer here in Tampa Florida, will soon become common where you live.
Doing work for charity, being Certified, all these add up when it comes to building trust with your potential customers.
Developing an image of strong community support can be good for a business.
Charitable work, donations, sponsorships and support for local fundraising efforts etc. can be a deciding factor in how some customers will spend their money.
we pressure washed 3 local police stations, the school my son attends, as well as a dozen or so playgrounds already this season at no charge ... i also offer veterans discounts (don't market it, but if i see a flag or tattoo i'll take $25 off)
the key to it in my opinion is be genuine ... i have a lot of friends/family that are policemen, so it makes me feel good to do something nice for those guys ... i'm not looking for a get out of jail free card or anything, just the feeling that comes with doing the right thing for people that stick their neck on the line everyday
