  1. 1Post on Facebook Marketplace: "Junk Removal — Same Day — [Your City]." Include your AI number and a price range. Repost every 3 days.
  2. 2Post on Craigslist in the Services section. Same copy. Craigslist still gets real traffic for this exact service.
  3. 3Text 10 neighbors or family friends that you're doing junk removal. Give them your number. People always know someone cleaning out a garage or moving.
  4. 4Post in your local city Facebook group. "Starting a junk removal service — anyone need a load hauled?" Simple. Direct. It works.
  5. 5Drive or walk your neighborhood. If you see furniture on a curb with a "free" sign, that person often has more inside they want gone. Knock.
Week 1 Checklist
  1. 1Call your AI number yourself. Make sure it answers and quotes correctly.
  2. 2Post on Facebook Marketplace with your AI number visible.
  3. 3Post on Craigslist.
  4. 4Text your list of 10.
  5. 5Line up access to a truck or trailer for your first confirmed job.
  6. 6Know your nearest dump or transfer station and their hours.
  7. 7Do your first job. Keep the area clean. Ask the customer if they want to leave a review — the AI will follow up automatically.

Scripts — What to Say
When they call to ask about pricing
"The AI will have already given them a ballpark. When you get there, look at the load and say: I'd put this at a [half / full] load, so probably $[X]. That includes haul-away and disposal. Want me to take it today?"
When they say "that's too expensive"
"I hear you. The fee includes dumping costs, which aren't cheap. What I can do is $[X lower] if you help load. Otherwise, this is what it costs to do it right and leave your property clean."
When they text asking if you're available today
"Yes, I can be there by [time]. Address? I'll confirm once I'm on my way. Payment is [cash/Venmo] after the job is done and you're happy with it."
When they want to leave a review
"That means a lot. You'll get a text in about 10 minutes with a direct link. Takes 30 seconds."
What the AI Does for You
  • Answers every inbound call 24 hours a day, including when you're asleep or working another job

Your First 5 Clients
  1. 1Walk a neighborhood and look for driveways with visible green algae, black stains, or dirt buildup. Those homeowners will say yes immediately once they see a before/after.
  2. 2Offer the first driveway on your block at a discount in exchange for a before/after photo and a review. That photo becomes your ad.
  3. 3Post before/after photos in your local Facebook community group. "First three driveways this week are $100 — building my portfolio."
  4. 4Post on Nextdoor with the before/after. Pressure washing before/afters spread fast in suburban neighborhoods.
  5. 5Post on Facebook Marketplace under "Services." Include your AI number and the photo.
Week 1 Checklist
  1. 1Call your AI number and confirm it answers and quotes.
  2. 2Locate a pressure washer rental near you. Know the daily rate and availability.
  3. 3Do a free or discount job on your own driveway or a neighbor's to get a before/after photo.
  4. 4Post the photo with your AI number on Facebook and Nextdoor.
  5. 5Book at least 3 jobs before renting the machine — that way the rental pays for itself on day one.
  6. 6Complete your first paid jobs and request reviews through the AI follow-up.

"For a standard two-car driveway I'm at $125. If you've got a walkway or porch you want done at the same time, I can add those for $75 each. Easiest way is I swing by, take a look, and give you a firm number before I start anything."
When they text a photo asking for a quote
"Based on the photo I'd say $[X]. That covers the driveway and walkway. I could be out there [day]. Confirm your address and I'll lock it in."
When neighbors see you working
"I'm doing a few in this neighborhood this week. If you want yours done, I can fit you in. My number is [AI number] — just text or call and it'll get you scheduled."
After the job is done
"Take a look. Want me to hit anything else while I'm here? And if you know anyone in the neighborhood, word of mouth is everything for me."

  1. 1Walk your neighborhood and note any overgrown yards. Those homeowners either don't have time or can't do it themselves — perfect target. Knock and offer a one-time cut. Most convert to recurring.
  2. 2Post on your neighborhood Facebook group or Nextdoor: "Taking on lawn care clients this week. [Your city]. Call or text [AI number]."
  3. 3Offer the first cut at a discount if they commit to weekly or biweekly. Recurring is how this business makes real money.
  4. 4Talk to elderly neighbors. They often need regular lawn care and pay without negotiating.
  5. 5Post on Facebook Marketplace under Services. Many people find lawn care this way specifically.
Week 1 Checklist
  1. 1Confirm your mower starts and blades are sharp.
  2. 2Call your AI number and test it.

When they call asking for pricing
"For an average-sized yard, mow, edge, and blow, I'm at $55. First cut is $65 if it hasn't been done in a while. If you want weekly or biweekly, I'll lock in that rate and you won't have to think about it again."
When they ask about recurring
"Weekly is $50 every cut. I do [your street] on Thursdays so I'd add you to that route. You'll get a text the night before confirming. No contract, just let me know if you need to skip a week."
At the door of an overgrown yard
"Hey, I noticed your lawn out front. I'm doing lawn care in the neighborhood this week. I could get that done today for $55. I've got the equipment in the truck right now."
When they want to skip a week
"No problem. Just reply SKIP to any of the reminder texts and I'll move you to the following week."

Your First 5 Clients
  1. 1Drive through neighborhoods and look for pools visible from the street. In Texas almost every subdivision has dozens. Note the addresses.
  2. 2Go door-to-door on those streets. "I do weekly pool maintenance in this area — $95 a week, I test the chemicals, skim, and vacuum. Want me to add you?"
  3. 3Post on Nextdoor. Pool owners see their neighbors and trust local recommendations immediately. Mention a specific neighborhood you're already servicing if you have one.
  4. 4Post in local Facebook groups. Parents with pools in Texas in June are desperate for someone reliable.
  5. 5Ask your first client if they know any neighbors who need pool service. One referral per client is your growth engine.
Week 1 Checklist
  1. 1Buy a basic pool test kit, skimmer net, and brush. About $75–85 total at any pool supply store or Walmart.
  2. 2Watch two YouTube videos on weekly pool maintenance so you're confident when you show up.
  3. 3Call your AI number and test it.
  4. 4Drive neighborhoods and note pools. Go to the doors.
  5. 5Get 3 recurring weekly clients locked in before Friday.

Scripts — What to Say
At the door of a house with a pool
"Hey, I'm doing weekly pool maintenance in this neighborhood. $95 a week — I test and balance the chemicals, skim, vacuum, and brush. Comes out of your schedule completely. Want me to add you starting this week?"
When they call asking what's included
"Weekly service includes chemical test and balance, skimming, vacuuming the floor, brushing the walls, and a quick equipment check. If anything looks off I'll text you with a photo before I do anything."
When they ask if you can fix a green pool
"That's a shock treatment job. I can do it for $[150-200] depending on how bad it is. That gets the pool clear within a few days. Then if you want weekly service from there, I'll add you to my route."
Asking for a referral
"If you know any neighbors with a pool, I'm building my route in this area. A text introduction is all I need."

  1. 1Post on your neighborhood Facebook group with a before/after photo of a car interior you've cleaned. Lead with the photo — the results sell it.
  2. 2Walk office parking lots midmorning. Leave a simple card or note on a few cars: "Interior detail — $85 — [AI number]." People who work office jobs pay for convenience.
  3. 3Post on Facebook Marketplace. Interior detailing is a top searched service there.
  4. 4Text family members and friends who have kids or dogs — their cars are destroyed and they know it.
  5. 5Post on Nextdoor. Offer to come to their house — mobile service is a major advantage over a shop.
Week 1 Checklist
  1. 1Buy your starter kit: small wet/dry vac, interior cleaner, microfiber cloths, glass cleaner, brush set. Target or Amazon, about $80–100 total.
  2. 2Detail someone's car for free in exchange for a before/after photo and a review. Use a family member's car if needed.
  3. 3Post the photo on Facebook and Nextdoor with your AI number.
  4. 4Book at least 5 jobs for the week.
  5. 5Cluster jobs in the same area — mobile means you go to them, so don't waste half the day driving.

Standard interior detail (sedan/car)$80–100
Standard interior detail (SUV/truck)$100–125
Deep clean (pet hair, heavy stains)$120–150
Quick vacuum + wipe-down only$50–65
Seat shampoo (per seat)$20–30
Carpet shampoo$40–60
Odor treatment$30–50 add-on
Scripts — What to Say
When they call asking what you do
"Interior only — full vacuum, wipe down every surface, clean the glass, condition the dash and doors. For a car it's $85, SUV is $100. I come to your house or office. Takes about an hour and a half."
When they say "it's really bad" (kids, dogs)
"I can handle that. Heavily used cars are $[120-150] because the process takes longer. If it's worse than I expect when I get there I'll text you before I go above that. Either way you'll know the price before I start."
When they're hesitant on price
"A shop charges $150-200 and you drop the car off for half a day. I come to you, you don't move your schedule, and the price is lower. Most people do it again every month or two once they see the difference."
After finishing the job
"Take a look and make sure you're happy. You'll get a text for payment and a review link. If anything's off before then, just text me back."
What the AI Does for You
  • Answers calls 24/7 with service descriptions and pricing
  • Books appointments and confirms time and location
  • Sends morning reminders to both you and the customer

  2. 2Find Airbnb listings in your area and contact the hosts directly through the app or find their number online. Airbnb hosts pay more, clean more often, and rebook without hesitation.
  3. 3Tell every adult you know. Word of mouth is how most house cleaners get their first five clients. "I'm doing house cleaning this summer if you know anyone."
  4. 4Post in local mom groups on Facebook. Working parents are the highest-converting target for house cleaning.
  5. 5Offer the first clean at a small discount in exchange for a recurring weekly or biweekly commitment.
Week 1 Checklist
  1. 1Buy your starter cleaning kit: all-purpose cleaner, bathroom cleaner, glass cleaner, microfiber cloths, mop, scrub brush. About $60 at Walmart.
  2. 2Call your AI number and test it.

Scripts — What to Say
When they call asking for a quote
"For a 3 bed / 2 bath I'm at $145. That's a full top-to-bottom clean — bathrooms, kitchen, all surfaces, floors, and I do the basics in every room. First clean is $165 since it takes a bit longer. After that it stays at $145."
When an Airbnb host asks about turnover cleans
"Turnover cleans are $[X] depending on size. I bring my own supplies, reset the space per your checklist, and can send a photo confirmation when it's done. I'm usually available same-day for checkout cleans if you give me a heads up."
When they want recurring but aren't sure on frequency
"Most people do biweekly. It keeps the house manageable without the cost of weekly. Try it for a month — if you want to switch to weekly or monthly after that, just text the number and we'll adjust."
When they cancel or stop responding

When they ask about pet sitting while they're out of town

Scripts — What to Say
When they call asking about pricing
"I charge $75 an hour with a two-hour minimum. A pantry usually takes 2–3 hours. A closet is 1.5–2 hours. I bring a few basic organizing supplies but if you want bins or drawer inserts, we can grab those on the way and I'll add the cost."
When they say "my house is a disaster"
"That's what I'm here for. Start with one space — usually the pantry or one closet. Once that's done you'll feel so much better about the rest. We can tackle it one room at a time."
When they ask if you bring supplies
"I bring labels and a few basics. For any storage bins or containers, we can either use what you have, or I can recommend specific ones and pick them up before the job. I'll add the actual cost to the invoice."
Upselling to another room after finishing the first
"That pantry turned out great. While I'm here, I could knock out that front closet in about an hour if you want. Same rate."

  1. 1Do 2–3 free shoots for friends or family to build a portfolio. Pick people who will actually post the photos — their posts become your best advertisement.
  2. 2Post your portfolio photos on Instagram. Tag the city and use relevant local hashtags. Summer is peak senior portrait and graduation season.
  3. 3Post in your high school's community Facebook page or student pages. Senior portraits are the fastest cash in photography during summer.
  4. 4Post in family Facebook groups. Family sessions, kids' photos, and mommy-and-me sessions book fast in summer with good natural light.

Scripts — What to Say
When they call asking about senior portraits
"Senior sessions are $225 for about an hour. You get 30+ fully edited digital photos delivered within 48 hours. We pick an outdoor location that fits — I know a few good spots around [city]. When are you looking to do it?"
When they ask to see your work
"I'll send you my Instagram right now — it's [handle]. All of my recent sessions are there. What kind of session were you thinking?"
When they ask if you use a real camera
"I shoot on [camera/phone model]. The editing process is where most of the quality comes from — you can see the results in my portfolio. If the photos don't look exactly right I'll reshoot. That's my guarantee."
When asking for a referral after delivery
"If you love the photos, sharing them and tagging me is the biggest thing you can do. I'm building my client list this summer."

Your First 5 Clients
  1. 1Make a free social media post for a local business — a restaurant, salon, or shop you already like. Send it to them. Say "I made this for your Instagram. If you want posts like this every week, I charge $250 a month."
  2. 2Walk into local businesses and ask who runs their Instagram. Ask to see it. If it's inactive or bad, make your pitch on the spot.
  3. 3Look at local business Google profiles. If their posts section is empty or last updated over a year ago, they're a target.
  4. 4Post on your own Instagram showing examples of the work you'd do. Tag local businesses. Demonstrate what you're selling.
  5. 5Offer a one-month trial at a lower price to your first 2–3 clients. Get results, get testimonials, then raise rates.

Scripts — What to Say
Walking into a business with bad social media
"I run social media for local businesses. I made a sample post for yours while I was outside — want to see it? If you like the direction, I do this every week for $250 a month. Full month, you can cancel any time."
When they ask "what do you post about?"
"Depends on the business, but usually a mix of: what you do, what makes you different, happy customers, behind the scenes, and seasonal promotions. I handle the design, the captions, and the scheduling. You just approve before anything goes live."
When they say "we tried social media and it didn't work"
"Usually that's a consistency issue. One post a month doesn't build an audience. Three to five posts a week does. Most business owners can't keep up with that — that's exactly why I exist."
After the first month
"Here's what went out this month and the engagement numbers. Want to keep going? I can lock in this rate for the summer."
