The 5‑Minute Script That Turns Every Dryer Vent Job Into More Jobs

Playbook For Dryer Vent Cleaners

Most cleaners finish a job, pack up, and drive away. The pros turn that job into the next one.

This page gives you a copy‑and‑paste script plus simple math so you can see exactly how much money you’re leaving on the table if you don’t use it.

Step 1: Use the “Safety Score” Script on Every Job

Use this at the end of every dryer vent cleaning job.

Say this before you leave:

“On a scale of 1–10, how safe do you feel about your dryer after seeing all that lint come out?”

If they say 8 or higher, say:

“Awesome. I’m trying to help more families in your area avoid dryer fires.
Do you know 1–2 friends or neighbors who should probably get this done too?
If you’d like, I can text you something you can just forward them.”

Run this on every job. It takes 30–60 seconds and sets up warm referrals without being pushy.

Step 2: See What This Adds To Your Bottom Line

Here’s an example so you can see the upside.

Let’s say:

• You do 10 dryer vent jobs per week
• Your average ticket is $250
• 2 out of every 10 customers send you one referral using this script (20% referral rate)

That would be:

• 2 extra jobs per week
• ≈ $2,166 extra revenue per month
• ≈ $26,000 extra revenue per year

(Assumes 20% referral rate and 4.33 weeks per month. Change the numbers to match your business and do the math for your situation.)

Step 3: Text They Can Forward To Friends

After they agree to share, text your customer this so they can forward it to friends and neighbors:

“Hey, I just had my dryer vent cleaned by your company.
They’re in your city/area this week doing safety cleanings.
If your dryer’s taking longer or you haven’t cleaned your vent in 12+ months, text them at your phone number and they’ll get you a quote.”

Swap in your real city/area, company name, and phone number.
Then save this as a text template in your phone so you can send it in two taps on every job.

Step 4: What To Do Next (Pick Your Situation)

If you already clean dryer vents:

• Use the Safety Score script on your next 10 jobs
• Track how many extra jobs you get from it
• Once it’s working, make it a non‑negotiable step for every tech on every job

If you want to add dryer vent cleaning as a new service:

• Start offering this script on the jobs you already do (chimney, HVAC, cleaning, etc.)
• Use the forward text to get your first handful of vent customers
• Then invest in pro‑grade tools so you can do the work faster and look more professional
