Another thing, have you sent all local building firms that you offer your services, this works on businesses I tent to do. Give them a call, im sure someone will have a job somewhere that needs sorting.
Have you thought about looking at planning apps in your local councils website, if refused why not offer a service to get there plans approved.Kind Regards

I dont agree with this, your success is only as good as your price and if the customer wants the service. Ive sent out 10,000 leaflets and only got 2 responses and nothing I was doing wrong, they just didn't want my service.
sorry to hear that you must either have a very poor quality looking leaflet of you ae providing a service that is not for the average household??
i have heard so many people say i delivered 10000 leaflets and only got 2 responses so many times...........how many times did you hit the same area??? you need to be frequent so people A) Recognise your leaflet after a while andby recognising your leaflet and seeing you delivering them with hopefully feel your not a fly by night service.
Oh and just to add price isn't always a deciding factor in peoples mind, if you truly beleive that everyone goes for cheap and you market your pricing at the cheap end of the market then all you are providing is a CHEAP serviceEveryones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.0
