Lawn customer lines
I've been handing out flyers, doorhangers and just flat meeting folks to bring on more customers for our lawn care business. Here are a few of the complaints(for lack of a better word) I hear when I give them a quote.
"Gosh, that's more than I used to pay my son to do it"
"Do you really think that's fair" (I just want to say, "No, I really take advantage of every 10th customer and today is your lucky day")
"Since you have commercial equipment, shouldn't you only do lawncare commercially?"...uh, yeah, how silly of me.
"You can't mow on Friday afternoons, I won't be here" -So what? Are you going to help me mow?
And my favorite so far:
"Don't you do any yards for free?"

"Don't you do any yards for free?" That is funny! I think I would have responded -- "Not on purpose!"
