I own a new carpenter services business (custom furniture and installing of furniture) and would like to hear your ideas on marketing possibilities. In my country a lot of locally established carpenters do almost no marketing as they are fully booked out just from word of mouth. Im searching for ways to help get more clients without seeming needy since worry people might associate that with bad work or maybe thats just me? Any thoughts and suggestions appreciated!

    • I would network with others at industry focused events (Eventbrite)

    • Perform work (nothing too costly) for a local influencer with a large following (50k followers or more). All you would ask in exchange is a promo post with you tagged so others can contact you. Maybe you make a custom chair for a local musician and title it “a throne for the king of pop music in X city / country”. Then others will naturally click your profile and see all the work you do. Or maybe you make a mini ramp for a local skate boarder. Things of that nature.

    • Partner with complementary businesses. Reach out to painters, plumbers, interior designers and the like and explain to them how if any jobs come up where your expertise is needed you are willing to provide a kick back (Ex. 10% for all jobs referred).

    here’s a video with a few other ideas, hopefully one sparks something you can run with
