The Intro

Years ago, I started a cleaning business in London and struggled to attract clients beyond lead-bidding platforms like Bark and Checkatrade.

Jokes aside, I knocked on over 500 doors and closed 4 clients. I used to drop leaflets at the local off-licence stores, pay to put up posters in local nursing centres, and drop business cards at the local pub. Nothing worked.

I then realised that I need to establish an independent online presence to generate direct leads and build a sustainable brand, rather than chasing potential customers and under-bidding on quotes from Bark and Checkatrade.
