Weekend Canvassing

Posted by tacleaning (T. A. Cleaning), 1 March 2004
Well, what a weekend  Shocked

Myself and my brother have been setting up a window cleaning business over the past few months, we are both due to leave our regular jobs at the end of March to work at window cleaning full-time.

Went out canvassing on Saturday evening... Picked up £325 worth of new business... I'm not joking! We picked up some really big houses, charging £35+

Then, on Sunday I went out canvassing on my own, and picked up another £184 worth of business.

Looks like we've picked a good area this time  Smiley

Well done! That's impressive. It's all down to finding the right area.

And you'll still build on that when the neighbours notice that you turn up regulary  Wink

Thanks guys.

Yep, just knocked on the doors and gave them a card. Asked them if they had a WC, they didn't so I offered our services and they said yes.
