I've put often because some customers have their carpets done when thay feel like it, majority once a year but with the migration of todays customer full 100% retension is for me imposible.

perhaps if you are putting often. it might be good to leave a message. as to how many times in a year say over 3 just for general knowledge of the members

i have to say that once i've cleaned a carpet or upholstery for a client then i'm pretty sure they will phone no other. nearly everyone asks for a card and states that there friend wanted my number if the job was done well. i run off old clients and recommendation for 85% of turn over( on domestics). i spend very little on ads.
