Then over time, like Troy said, add a question and answer session. Then simply include an invitation to a special class at the shop to show them how to complete the projects from the newsletter "hands on". This will get clients interested in home remodeling in your door, giving you their full attention. Then it's simply a matter of selling them on how much easier it would be to have you do the work for them. Just a thought, hope this helps Steve Glen,

I think that is where I am stuck. Believe I can sell almost anything, yet I feel knowledgeable about sensory integration and education and how it feeds young minds, based on personal experience. Want to write a book, or ebook, and have written several articles, but am stuck. Don't know if it is procrastination, or that I feel I don't have a degree in occupational therapy, but I know there is a market there. Where do I start? Please don't laugh at this question.

I am having to be extra creative on a tighter budget this year--I do landscaping and the recession has cut my client base almost in half. Your suggestions have given me a couple of great ideas that I never would have even thought of.---On the flip side, having fewer clients means I can also devote more time to starting my copywriting business as well,  so it's going to be an interesting year. I can't wait to get started! :-) Thank you, Troy–great article!
