hi i'm sure that question has been asked before but I was just wondering what is your average drop rate ( custys dropping you after let's say less than 5 clean ?) it can sometimes be quite demoralising being told you're not wanted anymore

[bobplum]

mines low.......but then all new customers go straight on to standing orders, it normal scares of the messers from the word go

I get very few nowadays. At first I got more, but I prefilters now and if I suspect a one off won't do them.

I have to say I have the knack for feeling it when they start resenting seeing you very month ( nothing to do with a bad job!) not the best feeling lol

less than 1% percentage wise.

well if among new custys you still have 99% of them after one year then you must be the exception lol

i dont generally.my round is self generating but if i get a new job in a nice posh area i will leaflet/canvass houses either side of new job!

also customers drop out for other reasons.moving and death being the main ones followed by losing jobs/cant afford a window cleaner.

all our rounds are like shifting sand.constantly evolving and changing over time no matter how well established we are.
