Every 3 weeks....
« on: November 16, 2012, 03:15:06 pm »
Hi all, my round is based on every 3 - 4 weeks ( kept to 3 weeks if possible ) do you see any problems with this? Is it good or bad for business?

Id say top man if you can get a 3 weekly round. Need less customers which makes it easier to maintain.

so not much of a downside then? I have experianced custies dropping off here and there but i just re canvass and add more than what i lost.

I look at it from all angles, i can never decide if its right or not...

I suspect a high percentage will be saying, "Is it that time already?"

I like every-two-months, but it takes a lot longer to get this type of work; but you can charge them a lot more too.

every 3 weeks is better than 4 weekly,  17 cleans     better than 13 cleans per year,  you will get some moaning,   cant be early   but you can be late.

Nothing wrong with it, I'd clean 'em weekly if the customers would let me.  :)
