I have a landscape design service and it seems that my advertising dollars were flushed down the toilet in the yellow phone book. I do landscape design for homeowners and also take commercial customers if they call. I am willing to spend the money but I don't want to waste more money. What advertising actually works for businesses like mine?
1) A sound professional strategically designed and marketed website.
2) Ask owners if you can leave behind a sign in their yard for a limited time after you complete the project.
3)Pay per Click advertising on the internet, they are not evil if done correctly.
4)Direct Mail at targeted homes at specific times of year (when people are thinking about their yards)
There are several other methods depending on budget and the area your business is in. But yes, reduce your yellow page ad asap.

The H.D. Cooke Elementary School in Adams Morgan was just renovated , with an addition containing a gym and cafetorium, a modernized library and media center, new playing fields and more. The renovation also included some bicycle racks. Unfortunately, parents, staff and students discovered that the racks were installed too close together and too close to the wall, limiting the ability of cyclists to lock their bikes securely and to fit many bikes on the racks.
ANC Commissioner Nancy Shia sent along these photos of the bike rack. They use the inverted U design, which is a good type of rack. However, they don't comply with DDOT's standards for bike rack placement . When racks line up against a wall, as they are here, the standards require the edge closest to the wall to be at least 2 feet away, and DDOT recommends 3 feet. These racks are only 18 inches from the wall, which makes it impossible for some cyclists to lock the front and back wheels to the rack if they so choose.
