Chapter 1: Why Your Flyer Matters

A bad flyer gets thrown away. A good flyer gets someone to call you.

| Bad Flyer | Good Flyer |

|---|---|

| Too much text | Short and clear |

| No phone number | Big, bold phone number |

| Boring headline | Headline that grabs attention |

AI tools help you make the good kind — fast.

Chapter 5: Where to Distribute Your Flyers

Printing and distributing flyers still works great for cleaning businesses. Here are the best places:

  • Neighborhood mailboxes — Walk your target neighborhoods (check local rules first)
  • Laundromats — Great spot. People who hate chores often hire cleaners
  • Coffee shops — Put them on bulletin boards
  • Real estate offices — Agents love recommending cleaners to new homebuyers
  • Apartment complexes — Ask the leasing office to display them
  • Community Facebook groups — Post a digital version of your flyer

Free tip: Print 100 flyers at a print shop for about $15–20. One new client from those flyers pays for hundreds more.

Chapter 6: Track What Works

After you run flyers and ads, you need to know what is working. Otherwise you spend money blindly.

Simple tracking method:

  • For flyers: Use a unique phone number or say "mention this flyer for $20 off." Count how many people mention it.
  • For Facebook ads: Check your Ads Manager dashboard. It shows clicks, calls, and cost per lead.
  • For Google: Your Google Business Profile shows how many people called you from your listing.

ChatGPT tip: Once a month, type this into ChatGPT:

"I ran a cleaning business flyer in [area] and got [X] calls. I ran a Facebook ad and got [Y] calls. Which should I do more of?"

ChatGPT will help you think through the numbers.
