what's the point of an advert?
G'day Larry
Don't just write/show what you can do; try and make it personal, use some emotional language to help your prospective customer "feel good" about you and your services, as opposed to thinking "that's interesting, now I'll bin it".
Emphasise the good feelings -satisfaction, pride etc- of improved looks, improved value, longer life to paint etc that come from a clean home, while using negative terms -like ugly, slippery, uncared for, deteriorate, embarrassed, over-run with spiders/mould.... to make them feel bad. Which is OK because can make them feel good again.
While some people will put you advert away until they need it, you want them to call now, not later but NOW! and to do this you need more than facts - you need emotion.
And there ends todays lesson. Please turn your hymn book...
