thing i worry bout is wont it leave lines or marks on the glass, not many people will like me leaving thre homes with soaking wet glass will they lol  ;D

So how do all we wfp'ers keep our custies then ::)
The answer to you is one that is given to new custies that are a little unsure..... if it didn't work and we don't get it right, then we wouldn't still be in business :)

If you really cant do ladder work and I would'nt encourage you to.You should look into setting up a WFP system and wet windows dry after 1-2 hours and you can do just the tops with Pole and go for hard to access with a ladder jobs.

Get some ladder safety devices and you will be fine. Don't stretch, three points of contact etc etc..

We all have to start somewhere. We in effect have to sell ourselves to potential customers. You could just say 'Hello, I am starting a window cleaning round in this area, and wonder if you would be interested...'
You don't have to say how long you have been a window cleaner.

When I started to build my business I had just 3 months experience (I was taught by, and worked with a friend). Nobody asked how much experience I had. If they had I would have been truthful to them.

My tip for you is to be honest. Trust takes a lifetime to build, and an instant to destroy.

you cant pull the wool over every ones eyes you'll soon get found out just be truthful,most people "just do my windows" and I would leave years of experience because you could come unstuck when one awkward customer asks you to back that claim up

he s a total dreamer this ant french at the moment! ;) ;D ;D ;D


canvass/leaflet and beg/borrow some money for a half decent system

your bound to fail miserably at the moment mate.scared of ladders and no motivation.your not geared up for starting your own  window cleaning business unless you have a drastic change of attitude IMO.
