Wealthy House Painter tip #3
By Terry | March 5, 2010
Make it a habit to under promise and over deliver on your painting jobs. People expect you do to what you’re paid to do, but they will feel indebted to you if you do more than what was expected. I always try to include the painting of something minor like a wrought iron railing or the mailbox and post and clean out the gutters if they’re clogged with leaves, for example.
Sometimes the little extra time you spend doing something that the homeowners have been putting off or forgot to mention at the time the estimate was given is what they will actually remember the most about you and your business. What might only take you a few minutes to do while you have a ladder out could take the homeowner months to get around to doing. And that’s assuming they are physically able to do it!
