Well done mate.

How many customers have you gained in that first year?

[MJHolmes]

Ive got 120 customers paying between £6 and £20 really pleased with myself. looking to expand into office cleaning now.

[Steve CM]

Fancy a full time canvassing job for me. 

[Pure Glass]

Lads-im not trying to give it the big un, but I put by money to buy my van, system and 5 months wages and running costs.

I was in the building sales industry and made a clean break. I have experience "on the doors", and its worked really well.

At first 3 hrs a day canvassing/4 on saturdays. I'm now squeezing some in-need around another 500 quid a months to be there. I had 5 month plan and should hit my target 2 months ahead of schedule.

Shattered, but worth it to see my wife and kids more and not have the agg of a boss chasing.

You can do it if you structure your week right and look for a niche. For me its three story town houses as not many bods have wfp round here.

Thanks

Steve

Sounds great.
I used to canvass a lot and i would pick up on average 5 customers per night but i would stay out until i got those 5 customers. My canvasser picks up on average 3-4 customers in 2-3 hours but he has a different sales tactic to me which works for him and equally im pleased.

Good luck with the plan
Danny
