Capt,There's no such thing as 'your patch', but don't worry mate, just be friendly with your fellow local window cleaners and you won't really be in competition with each other.You've nowt to worry about.
what confuses me with posts like this is .... if you are confident you are doing a good job why would you worry about your customers leave why would they.i clean on estates where we bump into the paranoid cleaners when they see you on "their patch" they frantically look at their numbers!!but i do not worry as i know i do a top notch job!it is funny to meet those shiners that do not want to talk to the opposition like we are iraq or something ha ha
Looks like this is a classic 'tumbleweed' post, I must be getting exceptionally boring......I tried to delete it but was not allowed so apologies for wasting your time reading it...the shame....
I'm friendly with most of the guys around me and also taking on some of the old chaps awkward work for him so he does not have to get up his ladder (he must be in his 60's, hands shake abit too)
