Used to have the 'experts' always tell me "Do it for free and they will give you lots of business.". Guess what? If you do the biggest job that they have for free, where is the profit going to come from when all you get are the crumbs from their table? After all you already did the 90% of the work they needed for FREE! This did not work for me. Most people place the value ot your work upon the service they get. If you do the whole thing for free they can feel that you don't place much value on it either.
INSTEAD : Do a section for free. Like the side of the porch or half of the corner with all the webs or a 8'x 8' area beside the door. You are not trying to get them mad at you for the only clean spot on the house but you can only do so much for free. Don't finish the house that day (if you get the job) try to schedule the job in 2-3 days. This way you can get alittle pulicity out of it.
