Marketing Minute: The 4 Ways to Increase Your Business (Part 4)

By O.P. Almaraz, Tim Bauer
May 18, 2017

The fourth way to increase your business? Increase your lines of business! Do you offer contents, plumbing, etc. The truth is customers like giving the job to one person; they are looking for a one-stop shop. So what do you need to do to prepare yourself to increase your business through brand new layers?

Tim and O.P. are not suggesting a major expansion in services here, they are merely suggesting you take a close look at your business and figure out what lines of business and other services might make sense for your restoration company and its strengths. Become the ultimate referral source.

Want some face-to-face time with Tim and O.P.? Watch to the end to find out how!
