Jeff has balls
« on: July 11, 2013, 11:03:02 pm »
I so respect this guy, Jeff. Sold his window cleaning business to start one up in Florida with the help of two childhood US friends. The visa process takes around 6 or so months and the file is inches thick. Min investment to get in is 50K. He has had his visa process accepted and is now doing a 5 month stint ahead of his family ( which I know is tuff for him )

In Panorama City ( his location in Florida) there is very few competitors for the high end residential properties he has targeted ( 3/4/5 mill dollars) the money he makes out strips what he made here in the UK. Big step for him, but what guts to move your family over and take the risk. And the weather aint bad too, if you exclude the odd twister.

Thank you. I remember one guy saying on here in the early days, " why do we need a mag when we got this forum?" bless him.... he should see the 10's of thousands that now visit www.windowcleaningmagazine.co.uk

Matt I love making these films and love it even more when it actually entertains you :)

[/quote could do with a fit female window cleaner to help me out,makes it more appealing to employ someone,also I think it would help to generate new work as women customers feel more comfortable talking to another female

Susan, we have an interesting story in the October issue about a lady that built up her window cleaning business after her and her husband split..... she had kids to bring up too!!! Story of lady determination - I love it!

better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove any doubt

I sold his business for him, within about 5 minutes of advertising, and I didn't even get a kiss.

 :'(

Very bold move, and one I'm envious of.

Good luck to the guy.

Lady and female are not the same.

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

watching Lee's video, with them shooting a gun, reminded me so much of Little Britain USA
