these whizz kids, as you call them, in all likliehood have an entrepeneurial attitude to business. If a project makes money quickly and easily giving an excellent return on their relatively tiny investment, then it is fair game.
Even as they begin their new domestic round, they will always be looking for ways to earn more and grow bigger but not necessarily in the same field of work.
They do not feel a lifelong loyalty to a customer base nor should they.
They may stay in window cleaning but expand into commercial work together with total facility cleaning eg: carpet cleaning and office cleaning.
They may see money in supplying WFP equipment or buying and renting out MEWP.
They will no longer need the domestic work which provided the cash flow to expand and so their areas are left open for others to move into.
There are millions of uncleaned windows in this country and no matter what people say about their earning power, it is still a boring, often lonely and when your hands are numb in the winter months, a downright difficult job to get motivated for sometimes.
So, the people who jump in expecting an easy ride are in for a shock and that is why I don`t worry about them. They will not last. I may not last and I have a great round which is well priced and gives me a great income but no-one will be giving out medals to me in 20 years because I stayed on a window cleaning round through 20 cold winters.
Look at Terry Burrows. He has had enough and is moving into carpet cleaning.
If something comes up which is better for me and my family, I`ll do it.
If not, I`ll stay where I am but not out of loyalty to a customer but because I need to bring money into the house for the upkeep of my family.
