Don't Over Think the Think, Over Do the Do.
Pay the cash to have your card professionally designed. This thing is only going to get you low paying customer calls because it looks cheap. You know I'm just being straight up with you man.
Look at the other guys card.... who would you call?

Design can be done in-house, paper&printing must be done by pro. IMO..

Take heed and listen to what Chris L. says.
My opinion, I dont like it. You'll get a better response if you slap a price up there on the card. Something like "House Washing $247" up to xxxx amt of sq ft.
I would test that card you made on a limited scale just to see.

I totally agree. It changed my business 1000% this year.
I agree with the Changes you made on the Card, I just think Simple is Better.
The color stuff is so cheap now I Agree with having color cards made for sure.

I agree. I design mine on photoshop elements and send to gotprint.com. you can get 2000I2500 glossy 4x6 for about $90-$100 shipped. I would also change the picture and have a good call to action.

I don't see an irresistible offer, Brother.
What is your target market? What keeps them up at night? Target, target, target. Speak to them, don't worry about how pretty it is, it just has to be about the customer. What are the benefits of them calling you?
Features - tell
Benefits - sell
How about have some different packages on there? Those pictures are lousy for that card, I would change those too. If you don't have really dramatic pictures, have a picture of a happy couple with their testimonial on there.
Just some thoughts.

PEOPLE STOP PUTTING PRICES ON YOUR SH*T!!!! All a price does is say "hey this card has no call to action i can't sell so here is my price take it or leave it."
That's a total crock of SH*T!
Like ant said GET IN THEIR HEADS.... whats important to mommy - watching her little girl play soccer
What's important to daddy - Golfing with the guys on sunday instead of cleaning his house.
Stop selling a price and pressure washing and start selling benefits that's how i have grown my company the way I have. It's not something i made up its basic business principals ...

You know Russ Spence, Mike V and Chris from WCR seems to be selling from a price list.....Seems to be working fine for them. Ron aren't you also about price list too?
All have what, 5 plus rigs running daily. They all seem to be growing well too. Its all about how you wanna set up your business model. There's pro's and con's against each way, And of course it will always come down to may way is better than yours. I like the price list.
As far as your post card......start over! Call a pro! Call Dave/Tim at kywraps.com or anyone that can make a great design. I have had 3 different in house business do design work for me(included in the price for advertising with that company), all looked good none looked great! I now outsource and pay the extra money....its worth it.

Take a look at this one

Lou, How well do I know you like going off a price list. *cough* 199 *cough*
Here is the thing; Ron is in Phoenix, Chris is in a High Population Area, and Russ Has a 20 state service area that all equates to the same principal - VOLUME!!!
We are in KY dude! Your not going to get 10 house washes a day here and the market will bear alot more than $199. Another Point is $199 isn't going to make your phone ring - having a well design card with a GREAT call to action does!
You keep advertising that low price and its going to put you right out of business.
I don't care what anyone says unless you have volume a price list is USELESS!!!!
