Introduction: Handyman Services is approximately 2 years strong.
One man with a dream of having a business started out painting and doing yardwork for his church, and then members of the church. Then it moved on to friends of members of the church, and people started asking what other services I could offer, and I believe in honesty; if I can do it, of course I tell it. But one thing I have learned is to never say I can do something, if I do not know what I am doing.
Right now, I have references of happy customers that I have done some electrical work for, and also references for painting jobs, and I have yard customers that bring me back to take care of their yards, and don't want anyone else to do the work, because I will make a person happy with my work.
Because I want word of mouth advertising, it keeps advertising cost to the lowest possible: free. And that is how I keep my cost for work so low.
