i would actually say that i think xmas is busier as far as enquiries but i wouldnt say its the most profitable period as from my experience the average job ticket plummets. personally i love end of jan right through to may.

if your waiting around hoping for the so called xmas rush what about the other 10.5 months of the year some must be near jumping off the fly over.

morning is origami, the afternoon is flower arranging and then in the evening i do an hour of pilates, its great for my carpet cleaning, i'm agile on the stairs, when moving flowers out the way they always look better in the vase when i'm finished and you should see the look on the custy's face when i hand them the bill in the shape of a swan.

ha ha ha thats very funny!  ;D i'm stealing it!

For me xmas goes mad for upholstery cleaning so i do a good deal for the room carpet to be cleaned at the same time and always overlap 6-10 inches into the next room. This inturn leads to a quote for the rest of the house ... usually booked in the week after. Anyone getting plenty of suite cleans should use this ...it works.

Hi Guys

How much is a fresh turkey now compared with 6 weeks ago.

How much will you pay to dine out on Xmas day?

What will a hotel in central London cost you in the next month?

I will be busy but I will also charge higher prices so that I don't have to work 7 days!

Cheers

Doug

So busy for you is just 5 days work then.
It's not expensive, you just can't afford it.

Hi Guys

Well done Richard, remember your snorkel.

I will work 5 and a half days flat out, thats enough, bearing in mind I'm busy 45 weeks of the year so no need to break my back just for Xmas.

I'm already letting my phones go to answer and filtering the jobs.

Cheers

Doug
