Touchpoints for Window & Solar Panel Cleaners: It’s More Than a Hose and a Smile

From the playbook of Duct Tape Marketing—because building trust doesn’t start when you're already on the roof.
If you think your “touchpoints” begin when you show up with a ladder and end when you say, “All done!”—congrats, you’re missing about 27 other chances to win (or lose) the job.
Touchpoints are every interaction a customer has with your business. And yes, that includes the sketchy Facebook page you haven’t updated since last year’s heat wave.
1. Google Search = First Judgement Day
People will Google you. If they find an outdated profile, blurry logo, or a single review that says “never showed up,” you’re done.
Fix your Google Business Profile like your business depends on it—because it does.
2. Your Website—Is It a Trust Builder or a Digital Shrug?
Does your site say: “We clean solar panels and windows with pro-grade equipment and zero excuses”?
Or is it the digital version of a dirty window—cluttered, slow, and confusing?
Bonus points if people can actually book a quote online without sending a smoke signal.
3. Your Van, Shirt, and Yard Signs—Do They Match or Mismatch?
If your business card says eco-friendly pro, but your van looks like it survived a demolition derby... you’re sending mixed signals.
Brand consistency = trust. Inconsistency = “Eh, maybe not.”
4. Your Quote Process Shouldn’t Feel Like a Mystery Game
Do you explain what’s included? Mention safety practices, water purity, insurance, scheduling? Or just grunt out a number like it’s a garage sale?
Give people a professional, simple, and confident quote experience. You clean panels like a pro—your quote should match.
5. Post-Service Touchpoints: Where the Magic (and Referrals) Happen
After the job’s done, do you vanish into the mist? Or do you follow up, thank the client, ask for a review, and remind them about quarterly cleanings?
No follow-up = no loyalty. You’re not just cleaning panes—you’re building relationships. Treat it that way.
The Dirty Truth?
Duct Tape Marketing teaches that trust is built one touchpoint at a time. If every interaction says “We’re the pros,” guess what? You become the go-to.
And if everything screams “side hustle with a power washer,” well… enjoy competing with the Craigslist crowd.
