I recently started a small business and get most of my business from referrals/word of mouth. I offer in-home pet care/sitting/taxi services. I tend to keep every client I get, and have never had a "one and done" client.
We've set it up right with insurance, bond, llc, separate bank accounts, invoicing, etc. We're working on a professional logo for marketing materials and t-shirts.
I've done flyers, posting on nextdoor, neighborhood Facebook pages, instagram, and Facebook. I'm also on Rover. What else can I be doing to grow this business? Has anybody had success with targeted mailers? I'm thinking of hanging out at dog parks handing out business cards. Does sponsored advertising on Facebook work? Do people still do newspaper ads?
Any advice you have would be helpful!
