advertise on here,

or here. http://www.windowcleaningroundforsale.co.uk/index.php

advertise a price with and with out equipment, you might have more success selling separately though.

Put some details up on this site in the business opportunities section - Businesses wanted and for sale
You could sale it all as one lot or if you are prepared to sale the van seperately then do that, advertise on this siteand/or e-bay. Out of interest, where are you based?

why u selling, if i had a round like that i would just employ,

if you sell for x 3 u are going to be asking 15 k  which might be a lot  for some one to pay

Blue monkey - 3x ??

WHAT??

A decent round is surely worth at least 6x - much less one that turns 4700 a month, even with an employee alongside you thats decent money.

That's the bit that puzzles me. Who's to say what someone else will find "too much"

its difficult to put a price on a round. when i read up on it on other sites its between 2-10x depending on quality mines good but its all about what its worth to others. a m8 of mine sells franchices for 40k that turn over 15k ayear and he sells 14 franchises a year so people are prepared to pay there real worth.  a buisness such as a cafe is worth 3x its yearly turnover and ive known this done. a window cleaning round seems to be worth much less though. but again its the same as anything its only worth what some1 will pay

i was using x3 as an example,  even at x3 its 15k and i dont know any one that has 15 k to spend on a wc round,  even at x6 you are talking 25-30 k  i dont think you will find any one who would haev that type of cash around portsmouth

Take a look at the rounds in windowrounds for sale,

they sell for 5 x easily... if its a cracking compact round making nearly 5k per month , then i dont see a problem selling

Any successful business man with a bit of money in this game will snap it up.

put it in all the free ad papers, join all the forums and advertise it,

and bang it on ebay too ,

Subject to seeing the work and the 4700 per month on monthly accounts I would snap your hand off at say 5 x. I unfortunately don't live in Portsmouth, nor do I want to move there. Not that there is anything wrong with Portsmouth!

Blue Monkey - To state that you don't know many people who have 15k in Portsmouth is a little bit blinkered. Everyone who is in window cleaning is not on here.

I would approach contract cleaning companies with this and see if they are interested. 5K a month needs to be sold properly and I would get advice. Go to Business Link and see what they say.

I have sold a larger round than this and I got the money I wanted but I did have an employee who had a way to get the capital.

There may even be a large window cleaning company on here that just browses, rather than posting regularly that may be interested. There are over 20000 members on here and only a handful that post.

Put a letter together and see if you get any interest from commercial & industrial companies.

Good luck

Rob ;D

Not trying to appear to be rude,but i would seriously look at how you percieve a business.If i am not mistaken you were on here the other day saying that gutter/fascia cleaning does not pay well.All your posts relating to value seem to be negative imo.

the guttering jobs dont pay down where i am, as the custy dont want to pay the prices as they get doles in the summer to do them for £25 per house,  they are just not worth the hassle to me,
