As for lead generation I think all the methods( there's a word I like better, method) for getting leads are great: bandit signs, a sign on your car, a sign at your work, business cards, direct mail, conversations with people who seen your sign, flyers, t-shirts with your logo, a handshake.

Whatever you do, ensure your i's are dotted and your t's are crossed in accordance with your state and local laws.  

Though we sell about 70% of our cabinets in the white shaker style, I would strongly discourage you from doing that.
