Title: good way to get wfp work
Post by: ccmids on July 23, 2010, 08:18:02 am
just say to every one you meet on your round that ladder window cleaners will not have proper insurance , and the ones that do are paying top doller for it and will sew at the slightest thing .
this happend to a window cleaner up north who sewed one of his custys for uneven ground when he fell off . this is what i m going to do  to stop the numpty who is trying to undercut me and take my custys.

I say similar things like that to potential new custies. Especially when wcs with ladders walk across sloping roofs. If they break a tile then it could prove costly bcus the tile they break isn't in production anymore so would be much harder to get an exact match.

well said gary but when you get someone who is out to get your custys you will see what i meen, ive got nothing against any ladder man what so ever , just the one whos kicking me so this is what im doing it for .
there is plenty of work out there for every one , no need to start slaging my work off and undercutting to get my custys that ive done for years.
i only found out what he was saying to them when one of my custys told me . ive not lost one yet thankfully.

Truth of the matter is u may have insurance but its invalid if u have a accident because your not using safest method.

How many of you started as a trad window cleaners? for a lot of us thats how we started and slagging other cleaners off is just a good way to make enemies, i know a lot of cleaners around here and will say hello to any of them, theres a lot of dirty windows out there so isnt it better to get cleaning instead of lying?

I use and like trad and pole, they both have their own place and both do a good job.Infact on first cleans wfp takes bloody ages. Seen a house yesterday, glass was spotless but frames were covered in green, sometimes on certain windows that I know will spot I wfp first then wagtail after and wipe frames.

Seems like a waste of time
Why not pre wash the windows and frames and blast off wfp.doesn't take much longer and gets cleaner.

ccmids why would any of your custies go with this other undercutting windy if you ve been cleaning them for years and you do a good job? ???

to resort to lying to your custies in a underhand way just makes you almost no better than him!

if your open,honest and matter of fact with your custies you shouldnt have a problem unless your a rip off merchant in regard to your pricing.

as for getting wfp work i just sell it on the usual benefits.

FRAMES CLEANED AS STANDARD

CAN REACH PREVIOUSLY INACCESSABLE WINDOWS

MORE THOROUGH CLEAN

MORE PRIVACY

NO HOLES IN LAWN!

NO BROKEN TILES!
