Some numpty around my way advertising that
Are you paying too much for your window cleaner come to me for cheaper traditional way.
He has about 5 or 6 spelling mistakes though.

Would you call this undercutting?i would but he says its his way of advertising.

It's both isn't it...
No way would I want my USP as 'cheap' though.
Don't worry about them bud, the ones you'll lose are the ones you'd not want anyway.
Happened to me this week.
Win some/lose some.
I lost £27.50 on two jobs and gained £35 on 2 jobs. Bet you're about the same...

Your right there last week i lost one and gained 2 the sameday.
It gets you down when you lose jobs but better when you gain.
 i told this so called window cleaner what i think.seen on his facebook wall one of his custys said did u leave you t-shirt in my garden he says no it was my m8.lol he forgot,how proffesional.

[robertphil]

keep your eyes peeled.he may watch where you clean and later door knock your houses

[windiewasher]

Hes informed me everyone wants everything cheap.
Asked him if he was registered and insured,no reply...wonder why?

[dazmond]

dont worry about it mate.if you take care of your customers and charge a fair price and do a good job you wont lose any.

He charges 6 what i would charge 10
And 10 what i would charge 20.

[king marko]

I wouldn't lose any sleep over it mate - people aren't daft
At the end of the day you get what you pay for

He'll soon regret underpricing his work - the satisfaction will come when any customers you lose call up asking for your service again 

[bobplum]

concentrate/look at the guys who are charging more than you .....and learn from them

[dazmond]

i know guys who ve lost whole streets of work to guys charging half as much as them but guess what?they were doing a rubbish job anyway!frames,sills and doors very rarely cleaned and unreliable.

LOOK AFTER YOUR CUSTOMERS!and dont take ANY of them for granted and decent customers will not take these guys on ever.

Think how skint you would be if you charged half what you charge now. Seriously, HALF your turnover? Would you carry on cleaning windows on HALF what you earn? I doubt it.

[windiewasher]

Im picking up stacks of work but it annoys me the way hes going about his so called business.i have heard hes a ruffled a few feathers.

He has no overheads and probably claims or has a job on the side.
I wouldnt carry on cleaning for half the price.
I have heard he leaves people with round windows.

He won't last very long if that's true.

I wouldnt carry on cleaning for half the price.

Then neither will he.

I have heard he leaves people with round windows.

They are not your problems and some people will always want cheap.
Let him get on with it and if he can get away with it maybe his customers and him are well suited. And you can snaffle the ones that are not happy with him, of course.

I'm assuming he means the guy misses all the corners 

[PoleKing]

What a turnaround.
The fella that undercut me in one area-one of his customers has just rang me asking to clear her gutters.
I said I only do gutters for windows customers-she said come and do my windows too!
Going Friday.
Isn't it a funny world-if he hadn't undercut me I'd've said no.
Feeling quite smug tbh.


And a bit childish.
