Chris, I would put a d on the end of schedule. Remember that $25 off is just an insentive for the customer to call. You can pad the estimate then take the $25 off the back end......If you wish too.....

Think I would extend the 15 days a bit longer. 30, 45, It might give them insentive to put it on the refridgerator and look at it a few more times.

Trae...very nice and professional!
Chris, the new logo looks very good. Can I offer a few suggestions:
"Prolongs Life" - if this is the case I want you hear everyday....maybe say "Prolongs the life of your property"
The picture you chose is squished up to fit...maybe crop the originals so you don't have to compress them to fit. It looks a little off. You want people thinking abou theoffer, not why the house looks so skinny.
Who are you going to have print the cards?

If "House need a bath" is going to be the main caption, shouldn't a house b&a be the main picture instead of a conceete b&a ? Just a thought.

Place a lower case ( a ) before bath, also Im not to sure about, we protect your landscaping, some customers could be a bit confused about what you mean by that,
In place you could put something like, Eco Friendly, Professional Service, If it's green call Squeaky Clean,
Once I get my computer back from the shop today, I can maybe throw something together for you

Chris, when you get it ready and you think it is perfect, print out a few on regular paper and show them to neighbors and people you don't know.
Ask them if that card would interest them in calling you for work, this is why you don't want to ask friends and family as you might not get the feedback that is best for your marketing (they might say that they would call just to be nice and you don't want that, you want what works).
If you don't get good responses then it is time to change the card around until you get good responses.
I had really great cards made but had no good marketing message and got lucky with some customers and made some profit. You need a good marketing message along with a good call to action or you might not get good responses.
Maybe have a special listed like for the next 2 weeks all driveway cleanings are 15% off regular prices and have the start/stop date and mention if they schedule any other work at the same time then that additional work is 10% off regular prices but only for those 2 weeks. Mail it out or make door hangers and put them in a few hundred houses and see what responses you get.
Good luck.
