Short transcript from a YouTube video where two speakers discuss using door hangers and in-person outreach to build a lawn-mowing route. They describe costs and time per drop, target customer counts per neighborhood (20–25), pricing/visit cadence (weekly/biweekly), and emphasize talking to homeowners when possible rather than leaving materials only.
And people say door hangers are dead, mailers are dead, all these other things. You know, if we can build out a route here, it's worth it. All day long, I'll spend the money because literally, to get two customers, 80 door hangers cost me $6.50, plus my hour of labor. 50 minutes, to be exact.
Instant door quote. And I'm going to run it 39 weekly. 59 bi weekly. Normally we do 40. I'm going to drop it to 39 just from a mental aspect of it. The goal is I ultimately want to have 20 to 25 customers in this neighborhood. One guy can come out here, make $800, you know, seven, $800, and just destroy P4P.
We're gonna see how this plays out. Continue to build this route. I'll keep you guys all updated as we run along. But we don't just Google and Facebook and be done. Like, we're trying door hangers and different things. So we'll see. And anybody I see, I talk to. I'll stop. And if the garage is open, if they're in the front yard, I don't just hang a door hanger and leave. I'll actually speak to them and try to sell them.
