Need Help Marketing My Internship

Posted by Anonymous on 2/24/2009 at 12:56 AM ET 250 Points
Hi everyone,

I'm in this summer internship with college works painting and I have to run my own painting business. I need to market the business to houses mostly and I have 5-6 marketers to help me go house to house helping me. I was wondering if there are any other/better ways I can market my business? Any advice would help.

Thank you,

Rushi

    If you do a good job, your best form of advertising could be word-of-mouth advertising. You might all for your customers an incentive to tell their friends and relatives what a good job you have done. You might also ask your happy customers for testimonials you can use in your marketing materials.

    Businesses like this are definitely word of mouth. The problem with the "college painter's" approach is that there is not continuity to build on.

    Are there past clients that you can call on to give referrals?

    It is all about the service, the quality and the value. Focus on that and the rest will take care of itself.
