I assume you have business cards? Hand them out whenever you have the opportunity. Look for problems and knock on doors. (or leave a card if no one is home). Leave few cards at various businesses like your ope shop, pin some up on the bulletin board at your local grocery store. Get a magnetic sign and put it on your vehicle. There are lots of low price marketing things you can do. Once you have a few customers, word of mouth is your best advertisement. Make your customers happy and they'll talk you up. Keep in mind that the cheapest price isn't necessarily the most important issue. Leaving the yard cleaner than it was, being on time, taking additional precautions to prevent damage, etc. That additional "customer service" is what gets people talking. If you did a big job for someone and they have a big branch down, clean it up for free as a good will token. Someday they'll need a larger job done (or their neighbor will).
