Go on then, Sarill, can I have a copy too please?

toshisba@yahoo.co.uk

Cheers.

If I was you, mate, I'd e-mail a copy to admin so that they can put it into the documents to download section.

A similar thing happened to me and I was e-mailing the world.

Regards,

Tosh.

I've just read this topis and my method of getting commercial work is so simple.

I simply walk into any where commercial whether it be shops, offices or factories and just ask if they need a window cleaner and leave a leaflet.

We may have missed out on a lot of work by not having printed literature to leave and all that stuff but every time I spend a day canvasing I always pick up at least one job and often, we get a phone call weeks or sometimes months later.

Then it's a case of doing the quote and we price our selves a bit on the high side. To date our success rate is roughly 70% of those jobs we quote for.

The way I canvass for work is quick, simple and effective.

I know others have more elaborate methods and that may work for them but for me - I walk in and ask.

Cheers

Paul,

The two letters were kindly attahed to the bottom of one of the above postings from EasycleanWindows but have just emailed them to you anyway.  

Hope they are of some use.

rosskesava,  Your approach would have worked great today as it was raining however  there are two reasons why this approach may not be used by SOME w/c's.

1.    Inexperience :  There are many newbies on this site who may be just too scared to approach profesional businesses YET.  The letter could be a cost efective way to get their name around their area without having to take the knock-backs we all know we will get.  Personally I have no fear of knocking but get easily disheartened by the constant rejections so know face-to-face is not right for ME.

2.   Cost effectiveness:   The cost of taking a day off to door knock is not possible for some.  I know you have to speculate to accumulate but sometimes paying the morgage is more of a priority and often canvasing gets put on the back burner and never done.

In terms of whether the letter has been worth it who knows - it may not get one job - just have to wait and see eh !!  Maybe I will have to the job I hate most - door knocking !!!!!
