how to sale flooring installation services to home owners?

I would like to know the better practices for home improvement services. How to approach customers, provide estimates on flooring, disclaimers to be included on estimate and invoices, etc.

1. ask probing question redirect after answer after a couple of times they will tell you if you listen how much they will spend or cant spend
2. Check some of the flooring manufacturers websites for their disclaimers. Check local home depot/lowes stores to see what they charge per sq ft. I have seen 2.37 but know handymans charge 2.00/sq ft get fliers and leave on car windsheilds at the hardware stores/malls/etc. get business cards made call local flooring wholesalers and leave your business cards/brochures and or partner with them. Take a small ad out with the church news flyer Talk with real estate/mortgage brokers and leave your info with them. Talk with builders/construction companies and offer your services. Go to library and check out some books on contracts etc. Check out the construction guidebooks at Lowes/Hoem depot good luck
