where to bid for cabinetry jobs ?
Hi everybody,
I am new on the forum and I’m searching for answers. I am specialized in cabinerty (residential /comercial) and what I want to do, is to let go with the company I work for , and be on my own. I just got my Contractor License and I have my work-shop, but I have no idea how to generate work flow. So far, I only had side jobs through refferals, but now I need much more, especialy with a growing family. I think bidding is the thing to try but no Idea where to search for reliable website or anything about bidding process.
Any tips will help
Chris

you can start by putting a free ad on craigslist and paying for a small ad in your local newspaper. if you want something a little better, you can sign up with a lead referal service. alot of contractors complain about them, as i did when i first tried one, but in the last year of me using a lead referal service, i spent probably about $3,000 - $3,500 for leads which generated over $250,000 or so worth of work for my company. i haven't used a lead referal service for about 2 years now as all of my work is finally coming from referals. it's a slow process but if you stick with it, do good work, keep your customes happy, you'll be successful.
