You don't need an education to be successful, take Richard Branson, and Alan Sugar as 2 prime examples. You just need business sense

anyway back to the topic, i will be insuring my T&C's incorporate the required changes, even if it makes no difference to me or my custys whatsoever.

Yep I absolutely agree with the first sentence. Re 2nd sentence, I don't have T&Cs because I believe them to be unenforceable and therefore meaningless in a court of law as far as w/c's are concerned. I'm talking residential here as opposed to commercial. I do just 2 commercial accounts so am no authority in this matter!

I just have T&C's so that they are there and can be viewed.

They may not be enforceable with regards to notice of termination, but some of them actually stipulate what i require when going to clean the windows such as access, or what is covered in a standard clean for example.

In my eyes its better to have them and for them to be redundant, than to not have them at all.

Sure. It's probably better to have in writing what service you offer/what's expected of you as this can prevent a future crossing of wires with the end account...your customer...but it's whatever rocks yer boat guv!

You do need education and both of the people you mentioned have that in abundance.

What I guess you mean is formal education: exams, initials after your name.

Total rubbish Ewan, now I am guessing you have done sort of business couse of type uni maybe, I personally left school with not to much education, I learn very little there apart from I eant more money than the people teaching me at the time (they was teaching me education so I could get a job like them  : hence why I started working at that young an age, you are now window cleaning some thing I started many years ago, education is not everything, have a good mind is, I dont say I am clever in the eduction world but in the real world I must be doing something right as educated people would not follow what me and a very high number of un educated people are now talking up.

My only regret is my spelling and grammer, something I am teaching myself slowly.

Apart from that Education in my eyes plays no part in being able to run a good profitable business. it is the person, you can be very well educated but have no clue at all in how to deal with people or the real world, I see this time and time again.

p.s sorry if it feels like I am picking on you, I am not in anyway just giving my points on some of the things I do not agree with,

I know what you mean now Ewan, I will say I educate myself on what I need and want to know. And Richard Banson had a uni education he just has dyslixea (not sure I spelt that right) I have the same but no where near the same money as he, it holds me backj a little, but I do not let it bother me to much

Ian are you not educated in the window cleaning trade? And again with some business savvy even though you may not have had formal training, sales, marketing the list goes on.

That what I mean by education, I agree formal (school) education is not always necessary after you have the ability to do basic communication reading and writing, math etc.

Or to get my point across with an example: who do you think understands more about business a university business professor or Richard Branson?

But saying some one like Branson is uneducated, and believing it you have got to be a fool.
