Out canvassing and decided to canvass a new housing estate I've been monitoring so knocked on 11 doors and everyone in but they all said yes great we need a windie but not for 3 months when the dust and building has ended (only half build)

Anyone had this before ?

Any tips for keeping them loyal 2 me before I even start ?

have you tryed the show home to see if they need a windie

[Dave Willis]

Yes I  had that. They all got their first cleans done then dropped off like flies. I will no longer target new estates now.

i have had this as well,  now i do council estate and get better results, been out knocking to night 5 - 7.30 and picked up 16

Yes I had that on couple of estates, Makes sense as they were dust bowls whilst still building,Infact one still is as its on go slow due to credit crunch (Thats what I recon anyway)

What's the point of a signature? It's not a contract

yes im hitting a new estate thats due to have 300 houses on it - so far 5 have moved in and all have had a knock and a re knock and a re knock !!! - apart from doing them for free i think they just trying to get as many window cleaning biz cards to pin up on the fridge ... hard work 

but if i get 200 @ £10 ---    - we he so just got to keep knocking

the prob with new estate is like bungys  a lot of newbies knock them a lot so i find them a waste of time really, as most of the time some one knocked the other week,
