« on: October 01, 2012, 05:52:15 pm »
Right now I cleaning houses but planning to become a window cleaner. I'm based in east London and I know I can buy a round in chingford which is reasonably close. I'm planning to hire door to door sales people to find customers for me

It used to be 1 customer for every 100 leaflets. Is that still about right?

It's just the internet. Try not to worry.

Thanks mate, my guess it's that 150:1 or something like that. I'm planning to use door to door sales companies so it should be much quicker

Leaflet drops suck.
Knock on the door and introduce yourself.

I would suggest you canvass youself, costs nothing but your own time and lets the potential customer put a face to the business.

It is easy to get customers if you put you all into it and stay focused.
I need 400 new customers by april.
Only 25 a week to get. Ill aim for 30 a week as will get a lot of messers but the best way by far is to bang those doors, make yourself enjoy canvassing as that helps.

To be honest I don't have the energy and don't mind pay for customers. Know any good sales company that cpver East London? How much would it cost?

Problem with canvassed customers is you don't know the property or have seen customer, thus you are anonymous to them and they to you,.

Door knockers will take anyone on, better doing it yourself
