Whilst you were trading as Triron Race Products, I seem to remember that you routinely sold your seconds at a reduced price to anyone that would buy them

Agreed, word of mouth is by far the best method of advertising.
My thoughts for what they are worth.
Do a good professional job, let quality become your business mantra.
Whilst working in peoples homes, try to work as cleanly as possible & try to leave the place as clean as you found it.
Take care on your pricing, not very nice to recieve a bill much larger than expected.
Extra costs are unavoidable at times so keep customers up to date with the budget.
Turn up to do the job when you told the customer that you would.
Never commit the cardinal sin of taking on more work than you can handle or even worse, take money in advance for work that you unable to commit too
Get all of those basics right & you will soon have a good local pool of clients
