From today i have the urge to get out everyday door knocking!
 My aim is to get 150 customers from today untill july the 1st!
 I picked up 3 customers today in hour and half!
was also told theres a windy retireing soon so maybe he will sell him custys or i might pick a few up anyway!
 So if i keep going out knocking im going to get the other 147 hopefully by july the 1st!
 Isit possible to get 150 in ten weeks?
thats 15 people a week!

You can do it if YOU want to.
If you think you can do a thing or think you can't do a thing, you're right.

was also told theres a windy retireing soon so maybe he will sell him custys or i might pick a few up anyway!

There's an old guy retiring round our way - he was never a full time window cleaner - though I am finding out he has a surprisingly good amount of work that's not badly priced; I always assumed this guy was cheap.

Anyway, I've picked up a lot of work from this guy (now this guy doesn't like me so I'm not going to phone him, because he's bonkers; obviously; what's there not to like about me? ), so what I've been doing is whenever I pick up one of his old accounts, I just ask the customer which other houses this guy cleaned.  In one particular street, all detached houses, I've picked up five in a row; nice!

I've also got a smattering of £15 to £20 houses dotted about, all less than two miles from where I live, and I'll get more of them when I find out more (I'm cleaning two of them tomorrow so I'll quiz the customers when I'm there). 

And because this old guy is involved with a church, the customers I'm picking up are all nice elderly middle class Christian types, which to me means that they're going to be good customers and pay me when I'm due paying.

So the moral of the story is keep your ear to the ground and follow up any hot leads you find.

ear is to the ground,im going back to do the rest of this estate that was just one road i done there,good chance of getting a few from there.

Another good tip, if you're using leaflets as well, is to check your phone for numbers who've called you each day.

When I get in from work, I'm in the good habit of updating who I've cleaned, organising my next days work including making any calls to leave gates open, or just tipping my hat to my best accounts, and I always check the CALL LOG to see if anyone phoned but didn't leave a message.

I phone any numbers I don't recognise and say something along the lines of 'Hello, I've had a missed call to my landline number from this number, my name is Tosh and I'm a window cleaner.  Were you after a window cleaner?'

Sometimes it's someone I know and not window cleaning related, but other times it's been people who've phoned wanting a window cleaner but not brave enough to leave a message.  And when I'm finished, I'll delete the call log, so the next day I know any numbers on there are fresh ones.

It just ensures you don't miss any potential customers.
