surely you can afford a cheap waterfed pole stick a hoselock connector on it and connect to there outdoor tap then you may even get an old spare pole of a wfp window cleaner in you area

Too many people are ready to rob a job for my liking , i only say this cos this site has at first enlightened me , now more and more lately it disgusts me , not all are bad pennies , but look out for yourself

agree with richy wilts and PF if you are not confident in quoting the school at least go take a look without anyone else, no reason you couldn't do it your self, it might just be a primary school with not much work involved, and most commercial buildings can be cleaned from the inside, if ladder work worry's you

Just to update - Basically, I can't afford a WFP at the moment, I don't even have a van yet, I am walking everywhere until I get some funds.!

i started like that m8,walking round with a friggin bucket! but no bova,had to be done. now i got 120 custys all very happy. just got a buisness loan through new enterprise, only 9% and am ordering pole tommorow which means more work again. i go halfs on a car with me dad so i can afford it,its all worked out perfect. best advice,try to do a better job than the others, dont rush,too much! get a wagtail,awesome kit. and most of all, people go for personality, be friendly, show respect, turn up on time,specialy to the elderly, it matters to them. watch youtube, always strive to get better. you'll go far my friend. tenacity determines capacity.

I have had some great advice on this, and I will get back to everybody I said I would when I have an update, I haven't been to the school yet. Thank you everybody. I would also just like to say in the short time I have been working and canvassing that what Paul has said is quite right - Be polite when canvassing, if people say to me No thank you, or that they have a window cleaner already I just tell them thank you and sorry to trouble you (and smile) It is surprising how many people stop you and ask for a card or even actually say that they do want a window cleaner now. And when working, and this probably goes without saying really, just do the best job you can, customers have then asked me to do other work or passed my details to friends and relatives. It's all good.!
