Hi All,
Well i have been lurking the forums for some time but now getting to the point where i am almost ready to give up the day job (around £28k a year)! but need some help!
How is the market at the moment?
I plan to go full steam, stop the day job and go canvassing 5 days a week until i pick up business. I will be using a hot water WFP system so my outgoings will be there from day 1.
I need to cover my overheads as soon as possible! (i know i prob should get a ladder out and start small but that's not my plan).
I really want to make this work and there is good money to be made. I live in the Surrey area (where the average clean is about £15/£20+)
In your experience, if i canvass 5/6 days a week, how long should it take to pick up a good amount of work?
Oh, and i use to be a salesman so canvassing isn't an issue at all!
Thanks all!
(p.s. i am fully ready not to go undercutting business, i don't want to tread on local window cleaners toes to much, after all, we're all trying to make a living).
