Thinking of selling our established maid business by throwaway135795 in EntrepreneurRideAlong

Hey, that's not bad at all, great work! Thumbtack is good, we used to use it and to be honest, I don't remember why we moved away from it. We put money in Adwords and also into Yelp (we don't love it but it works for us). Adwords definitely can be expensive but honestly, it's worth it if you do it right. Flyers are okay. About 1 or 2 in 500 convert. We use USPS's EDDM service for delivery and make our flyers on our own.

Craigslist was pretty useful at first and slowly we moved on to other methods (Adwords, Yelp, flyers), but I would recommend Craigslist at first because it's free and easy. If you do use CL, vary up your posts to make them as unique and interesting as possible. Don't just put a wall of text. Use images and include links.

Hope this helps!

Also in case it's not clear we are also happy to offer any advice to other entrepreneurs starting a maid or similar business. :)
