Hey Everyone:

Nope…no negative economic woes here. We get enough of that in the newspapers and on tv.  I did want to mention though that I wrote an article called The Economy and Your Window Cleaning Business. You can click on the link at the right to read it. Hope you enjoy!

On other news…the 3 Bears Window Cleaning Directory launch went off smooth last week. Thanks to all the window cleaners who listed their businesses. There are still others out there though who I know can benefit, so feel free to register and create a free listing. You have nothing to lose and a whole bunch to gain. Remember…it’s free!

One thing that I noticed is that there was a little confusion between the standard and premium listing. So I’ll be making that a bit simpler to understand. But one thing that really stood out to me is that I don’t think people realize what a huge benefit having a premium listing is. It is hard to explain because it has to do with a lot of search engine stuff, but the bottom line is that we made the premium listing in such a way so that you can create your own search engine friendly webpage on the directory. This means that prospective customers will find your web page online and in the search engines. More online exposure = more customers.

We will be making some minor adjustments like allowing for folks to apply their listing in 3 Bears to different cities. So if you create one listing with one main address, you’ll be able to assign that same listing to different cities in which you do business. Again…this is all designed to get you more exposure.

Hop on over to 3 Bears and create  yourself a listing if you haven’t already. Everyone should have one. There’s no reason not to unless you don’t want any more customers. And for the cynics out there who are wondering what the catch is, sorry to disappoint. There is none. 

Oh…and I just uploaded a short 6 minute video for The Customer Factor that I thought you might enjoy. We’ll be reopening in about 2 weeks, so we’ll be releasing a few short videos leading up to our reopening that’ll give folks a peek inside the software that has many window cleaners pretty excited. This particular vid talks about how customers and prospects just "appear" on the home screen so that they can be easily contacted and scheduled. I also give you the script I used when asking my customers when they would like to be serviced again. So enjoy the vid.

See ya soon!

Steve
