What if a simple, low-cost door hanger could generate recurring cleaning clients for months—or even years—after it’s placed?
In this episode of the Profit Cleaners Podcast, Brandon Schoen takes you behind the scenes of their Las Cruces, NM market launch, revealing how a strategically managed team, a clear tracking process, and a refined approach transformed an old-school tactic into a consistent lead generator.
You’ll hear how lessons from a failed campaign—where hundreds of door hangers ended up in the trash—led to a more accountable, results-driven system, including recruiting motivated college students, offering performance incentives, and requiring photographic proof for every delivery. Blending timeless, in-person marketing with modern tools like WhatsApp, Brandon shows how this approach builds both immediate leads and long-term brand recognition.
You’ll also learn how reciprocity turns a free service into loyal customers, how to engage homeowners with concise, friendly scripts, and how to amplify your reach through community partnerships, Chamber of Commerce events, and strategic giveaways.
Don’t miss this episode—listen now and discover how to turn a simple door hanger into a powerful client growth tool.
