Hey Howard's;

How did you get your customer base, and are you charging appropriately?  I think 60  customers is fantastic! I have to hand it to you, getting 60 customers requires a lot of work.  :P

Keep it up! :o

Cheers
Debbie

Texas,

Remember that you charge 10 dollars per window (including screens).  That's around £6.00 I reckon, although I haven't checked the exchange rate recently.

We could charge not much more than that for a whole house.  There's a difference between the size of your accounts and ours.  Ours are smaller probably!

On a different vein, but similar thread, there was a tv programme shown here about Houston, Texas having the most overweight population in the US.  No wonder you do so well; half of them take the car to collect their mail from the box at the bottom of their garden.  Never mind clean their own bloody windows.

At least here, our postmen put our letters into our house, which makes it a lot easier on our fat people who can't drive.

Hey chepstaw;

Yes, you are right; I do charge more per house; but I do a house usually 2 times per year.  8)

If I charged less, I suppose I might get more monthly cleanings, but it seems that there are enough contracts to stay busy rotating the ones done 2/year. :) 

Mix that up with commercial accounts which are monthly, bi weekly, or weekly, and it will keep a crew busy.  ;D

How have things been going? Been counting that money rolling in? ;D

Yes, obesity is ridiculous over here. I hate to say it, but fat is one of my biases. :o  I am not prejudice against any race or sex, but fat bothers me. I could not imagine ever waking up to a fat dude: EVER! YUK! :P

People don't go outside and do a lot of physical activities as they used to, and fast food is ridiculously available.  ::)

Eating has become an event itself; it is horrible. Even children go home and chow down on goodies after school and sit on their rears playing electronic games, computers, etc. :P

My family has always been athletic and active so we are not fat, but there are too many people who are FAT! ???

If I gain 3 lbs I am on it! I detest having extra weight of any kind. I want to look good in my bikini! :o

Both of my daughters are tall and thin. I am short and thin. My ex is tall and thin.  ;D

Well, I hope you make a lot of money this next week!

Take care,

Texas Girl :-*
