Happy Marketing Monday. How’s winter treating everyone? We were iced in here for most of last week, which pretty much shut us down. My “office” is the garage, and when it’s below freezing… productivity gets interesting. Add seven kids in the house and video recording becomes a lost cause 😅 That said, I still had some solid thinking time, and I want to share something useful. Winter is usually slow, so instead of spending cash, I try to spend energy. One of the most necessary winter services, especially before storms, has always been gutter cleaning. So I built a simple winter strategy: - A “Before the Next Storm Hits” gutter cleaning message - A matching postcard / door hanger design - A landing page so I can actually track responses instead of guessing - Here’s the free template if you want to use or adapt it: 👉 CLICK HERE I’m curious: - Have you had success marketing gutter cleaning in winter? - Are you doing door hangers, postcards, or just reacting to inbound calls? - Would you rather spend time or money during slow seasons? If you use this or tweak it for your area, post a screenshot or share what you change. Let’s compare notes.

Here’s the same tool I use in my business to price jobs confidently and consistently. 🧠 Try it here: bluladder.com/pro/apps/pricing-calculator I’ve got a few more apps and templates in the works (think job scripts, review requests, scheduling workflows). Let me know what would be most helpful to you. 💬 Comment below with requests, feedback, or wishlist ideas.

I just released a new tool I want you guys to try using: 👉 Next Level Revenue Growth Planner: https://bluladder.com/pro/apps/growth-planner This is a practical planning tool designed specifically for window cleaners, pressure washers, and exterior cleaning pros. What it helps you do: - Enter past revenue (or start from zero if you’re new) - Set a realistic revenue goal - Reverse-engineer what it will actually take to hit that number - Estimate marketing spend by channel (door hangers, yard signs, ads, etc.) - Walk away with a clear plan you can implement immediately This isn’t hype or motivation—it’s about clarity. If you’ve ever said: - “I want to grow, but I’m not sure what to focus on” - “I don’t know if my goals are realistic” - “I feel busy but not intentional” …this tool is for you. How I recommend using it: 1. Don’t overthink it—start with rough numbers 2. Be honest about your capacity (time, energy, seasonality) 3. Use it to identify your next move, not every move I’ll continue improving it based on feedback from you guys. If you use it, drop a comment and let me know: - What was helpful - What was confusing - What you’d want added next This is here to serve you. Use it.
