Ewan, your trouble is you put up a post (you've done it several times) asking a question about someones buisiness. They reply quite innocently and then you jump on them telling them they've got it all wrong, they don't know what they are talking about and they know nothing about business you then proceed to lecture them on how to do it, when it turns out you know very little about your own. Do you wonder why you are often described as a troll?
.......... aparently if you put a row of these at the end you can say what you like.
Well you lot do have some funny ways about doing things, it does make me laugh.
To be fair I’m not really interested in your business, (don’t take this personal) I don’t think you understand enough same as the matt’s although you lot would be good for advice on DIY (don’t take that personally either) as you are strong in that area.
I do actually understand something about business and I do understand my own business, the reason for the thread is starting, next year I have taken some work of some very well run window cleaning firms I have got them on the back foot, so I know I am doing something right going to be a turning point as it’s taken a couple of years to get here, or to put it so you understand I always turn down work (everyday) for less than £25.00, not bragging and I’m not rolling in cash, but I am up to something and the money will come later, whereas to many chase the money now, when you should be patience.
But then again, you do know best
I think the real trolls have been on here for a long time and have gone nowhere!
If I am still posting this regular in another two years I will agree to being a Troll!
you have mentioned me in this again, so i will reply
i guess im not the best business person in the world, i know that, i run my biz fairly basically, the reason, i cannot take anymore work on, im running at 110 %, now this will change when i work full time, but thats 3 years down the line, see im the type of guy ( i guess you hate ) who thinks, if its working and its doing fine, then why change it, im after a simple life, i dont want to employ ( now keep in mind, ive run building jobs, ive run houseing association new kitchen / shower contracts ) ive done all the ordering, all the "getting trades in at the right time " and all the paperwork, this doesnt scare me, i can do it,ive slept with a pad next to the bed for when i wake up and remmber i need to order something or get a plumber down for the day etc etc BUT, i come home from work and spend time with the family ( currently having a bath ), its fairly easy to understand if you think about it, will it change when they are slightly older and not wanting to do silly things with dad, i guess so
you mention your 25 quid work, i have a number of big houses, its a funny thing, i earn the same on them as i do on the 10 quid houses ( well the bigger houses are a slight bit more, but nothing to write home about ), i know that a row of 10 quid houses can earn me the same as 5 25 quid houses, done in the same time, as you say, its not rocket science is it
