With recession now biting hard we decided to interview local businesses to hear what they were experiencing and discover what they were doing to combat the recession. Wonderwalls Decoration (Painter and decorators) has shared their thoughts below, we would like to hear yours and provide your business with FREE advertising.

"There is no denying that tough times are here and ahead. The building industry has been badly hit, and as a Painting and Decorating Company we have to work extra hard to keep up the flow of projects.
At Wonderwalls Decoration we have always prided ourselves on our high standard of quality workmanship and solid work ethic. This is always the best marketing and referrals form a backbone of our business. But like many companies, in this tough economic climate we’re reassessing our marketing and reminding ourselves what makes us as a business special.
We set ourselves apart by being a small company with big credentials. We have all major professional accreditation and membership, along with comprehensive insurance. This enables us to work on commercial projects that would be beyond the scope of most smaller painting and decorating companies. It also reassures domestic clients of our expertise. But as we’re a small company, we provide excellent personalised customer care.
Of course price is important and we’ve always ensured our painting, decorating and tiling services are cost-effective. But flexibility goes hand-in-hand with this. We give our clients options; ways to approach the project that they might be unaware of. We may suggest completing the project in stages, so that cost can be spread. We have specialist product knowledge and can discuss the merits of different paint, wallpaper and tiling products, and how their use will impact the overall result and cost. We’re also eco-paint and recyclable wallpaper specialists, so can provide environmentally friendly options."

I’m a painter and decorator in Brighton UK. Work is really slow here, though I’m keeping busy, thanks to a lowering of my day rate. I more than halved it at the begining of the year. While this was drastic it had a viralness about it and people started talking about me which got me work when I upped the price a bit.

Thanks for your idea “brighton painter”. Lowering pricing can have a huge impact on customers when times are tough. It shows appreciation for their circumstances and this is valued as we are all currently in the same boat. The more we can do as businesses to help our customers in the bad times, the more likely they are to stay with us and recommend us to others.
Great idea! Thanks again.
