Didnt say you did, just pointing out were not all doley.,Before everyone jumps on the doley beer money wagon. Just saying now is the time to build a window cleaning business.Do a good job and you got no worries.Window cleaning customers are very loyal as long as you do a good job and dont rip them off.

Could be guys who have been made redundant, and are looking for a career change.  ;)

That said, I was recently informed by some of my customers that they had received leaflets from prospective w/c's. I lost no-one. As sf said, customers are very loyal if they are happy with you if you do a good job for a fair price.

Hi Dave,

1 of my customer's had a Concept2O leaflet put through the door with various pictures of WFP in action including a Concept sign written van. Then at the bottom of the front page a web address www.spotlesswindowcleaning.co.uk and a local landline number.
Turn the leaflet over and a contact name has been scribbled in a info block with another telephone number which has then been crossed out and another scribbled above it.

One has to draw their own conclusions.

Interestingly, the website address highlights their enviromental concerns. "OUR ROUND IS CARRIED OUT BY CYCLE AND TRAILER TO HELP PROTECT THE ENVIRONMENT
We carry all our equipment in a trailer and cycle from job to job. By using our services instead of a company with vans on the road you are helping us to protect the environment and at the same time doing your bit!"
