Just leaflet and Canvass where you want.

I have leafletted part of an estate, i walked into a cul de sac there were 3 average size houses, one being cleaned, so just walked to next road, had about 20 on it, got one of the houses, and they say they havnt seen a cleaner in months, so most likely pick a few more up in that road.

Go canvass, you may find the other window cleaners are fully booked, i canvass where other window cleaners are, I dont take there work as I guess I am old school like that, but there is plenty to go round

I leaflet everywhere, a lot of people allready have a cleaner, but i have had many people ring me up saying Ive just got rid of my cleaner for what ever reason can you do mine please....

A lot of people will keep the leaflet even if they have a cleaner in case they need a new one in the future

Just leaflet and canvas where you please, be honourable though and don't poach the work of others!
Simply leave your details behind, window cleaners do come and go, so they may put your card or leaflet to one side and give you a call if their current window cleaner lets them down.

I once had an enquiry (and gotr the job) about 3 - 4 years after leafletting an area.  Even a few months ago I got a job from leafletting two years ago.  Some people do keep hold of them.
