Sounds like this is a mug hunting thread to me,thanks I've been told you've get me some enquiries lol when you dangle a carrot and all that. Pyramid selling comes to mind. 💩💩💩💩💩

One of the things I'm having trouble understanding is that, having read through all of your contributions on this thread, you're arguing that franchising is a bad deal for the franchisee.  Unfortunately, in other posts you're also arguing that it's bad for the franchisor.  Just something I've noticed, that's all...

Nick not in certain area m8 it certainly doesn't look like changing anytime soon where I work,it is a really big issue with them they don't want Tom or Dick turning up with a fAg on. I know on other work they couldn't give a monkeys there out at work they never see you but that's another story,that's the trouble on these threads when franchising or expansion is talked about they have the kind of work it can be done on certain people don't care who cleans there windows,other people do care. If you start sending just anyone to do your work they may not like the look of them and that's all it takes and for those jobs it's game over,would you be willing to risk it on one or two houses that's a days money I wouldn't thanks. Who cares if you lose a 3 bed semi or a couple of flats it can be got back in no time.


I guess when you employed you sent Harry round?

I don't think it's good for either you need a poope load of poope work to get for a start being the franchise and IMO your a mug if you buy into it you should just buy a round of work and if you lose some advertise to try and get more,are these people total numb nuts don't they know anything about business that they need you to get work for them. You telling them or reassuring them that if they lose work you'll get more for them that wouldn't fill me full of confidence thinking am I gonna be losing lots of work then. Why would they not buy a round from someone giving up or retiring are they stuuuuuuuuupid,you are offering them replacement work replacement work replacement work,in pyramid selling they say if you go out and find another mug like yourself I mean someone thinking to invest you'll benifit from it,complete balls. My advise to anyone doing this job would be constantly keep sifting through the wheat and chaff until you have quality work don't keep taking on work for works sake,you should listen to me I know what I'm on about lol 😂😂😂😂

Ok we have all listened now please give it a rest FFS  ;D

Personally I don't blame anyone wanting to build a business whatever business model it's based on to gain a healthy residual income from it.

You'll also notice that NWH just likes to post on any thread to have an argument. Just look through his post history, possibly the most negative poster on here.

To be honest I don't read many threads on here any more: many of the decent posters seem to have departed to be replaced by people who just automatically gainsay or attack posters personally rather than adding to the debate.  I only posted in this thread because there were some - let's be charitable - "misunderstandings" being propagated.

Anyway, I'm off into the shadows again where my new stalker can't get to me.

Vin good luck to you pal if your doing well good on ya go for it I'm not knocking you,it's been made to look like this will work on all window cleaning work out there but I know for a fact it won't in a million years. I mentioned run of the mill work and by this I mean the kind of work we started doing and still do on a smaller scale or the good payers for a short time on the job,my point is if you think this will work on estates and buy that I mean 1 house on a 1000 acres your wrong m8. This is probably not I would say the kind of work your after your looking for a high number of individual jobs fair enough,this has dragged on because a few people are trying to tell certain people how to suck eggs.

Yeh ok. Not even sure what any of that is supposed to mean but keep up the good work, this site needs more posters like you talking absolute nonsense.

And the word conservatory.  He's programmed to promote a free conservatory clean to any that currently charge. This makes him an expert in business.  ;D

Very interesting thread. I'd always wondered if I could completely retire..but having read this post you wouldn't have to retire completely. Build a successful business, employ, and at the end of it all split the business into franchises and manage them.. And live happily ever after  :)
