Understandably, we haven't received any junk mail during the lockdown. I was intending to do a lot more pressure washing this year and employ or more franchisees for the windows.
Bought a big, 30 lpm Lombardini machine etc which I haven't used yet. Still using my Honda.
What are your thoughts re marketing for this year?  When and what?
I shy away from facebook for some reason. I think you are more likely to get one offs and messers.

Tap into your customer base first

depending on your views about the lockdown why not leaflet - we still get the local free rag dropped through the letterbox each week ( rate of time really as its on 4 pages! )

other than that - a good web site brings in excellent pressure washing work

Cheer Darran. I'm kind of being forced into it as my neck is on it's last legs. Been looking up for too long. Plus I actually enjoy pressure washing.

Have you considered seeking some form of medical help?
Someone who specialises in deep tissue or sports massage might be able to do something for you.
I was having neck and shoulder issues and when my Mrs was massaging me she said the trapezius(?) muscle on the left side was solid as a rock.
She massaged me a few times which helped some, but i visited someone before the lock down and they gave me a right good going over and remarked that my blood flow was being restricted and the muscle was tensed up.
I have only managed one session due to the situation at the moment but i started noticing an improvement a few days later.
Although i did feel like i'd been run over by a bus 1-2 days after initially.
I will be going straight back again when this lock down is over.
I reckon it's the repetitive movements in this job that build up and cause the problem for some of us.

Cheers Andy.
Yes, definitely the case and a deep massage does help a bit but I also have osteoarthritis in the neck. Ideally I would win the lotto and just potter about but hey ho.
