Perhaps if you identify your business in a clearer, more precise manner we can give you some feedback.

I am a (newly) single mother of two little ones. A General Contractor that was working with my brother until last week has agreed to work with me. I'll get him jobs and he'll give me a percentage.
There are a lot of General Contractors out there, how should I market this business and succeed?

I am located in Orange County, CA. The Contractor prefers to work in San Bernardino, Riverside and Orange County.
My husband and I own Ameriscape Landscape. He did the work, I got the jobs and shuffled the papers. I sub-contracted out the work we were unable to do and got a 20% finders fee.
We are separated now, Ameriscape is nearly a thing of the past - AND I NEED MONEY!!!
The General Contractor I will be working with has a team of 6. His company name is Cali-Construction - they do all jobs, big & small. He does great work, however he's not good with people. That's where I come in - I am, and I'm THIRSTY!

I have basic questions:
1. Should I advertise his company he currently owns - phone line directly to me, and file a 1099?
or
2. Should I start a new "Ameriscape", the other was Ameriscape Landscaping, and have him do the work under his company? That way I am able to work with other Contractors who will also do the work under their own company (licensed, bonded & insured).
I know the name Ameriscape does a GREAT JOB selling itself.
I know that I can market Construction,Remodels or Repair of: floor installs, hardscape, fencing, walls, tiling, stucco, etc.
Any advice?

Do you have a website that clearly states how you can help your customers? A website is a great way to market your services, because it can do your sales work for you (even when you are asleep). Also, you can reach a larger area than you would be able to cover by advertising alone.

Posting in forums like this is a good start because you are likely to find some good salesmen or saleswomen.

I agree, being a web based research company. I see the value of correctly positioning your business online everyday. It can be a relatively low cost way of increasing your exposure and reaching new markets.

I would base your site on the key principle of keeping it simple and clear in the message about what your business does.
