I did a huge over cut today.
Went along priced up. Huge 3 storey house bit of a flat roof so need the steps too for a few.
I quoted £50 every 2 months.
Customer said, 'seems expensive, our current guy only charges £17.50 every 3 months'
I said 'no wonder he's not doing a very good job, i'll leave it with you'
Went to walk away, customer stops me says: 'no, no, no, we want them doing, can you do them now'?
Yes i says. Cleans, gets paid, no probs.
OP, in 26 years you must've had some ups & downs?
Try and look at it as though you may just be having a little down, an up is only around the corner.
I actually think that a few downs every now & then does us good.
Keeps us on our toes.
It'll only be short term bud. Stay positive
