im building to get to £4000 every 8 weeks at the moment before xmas were just under £3000 at the min then were goin to have a target of £6000 every 8 weeks then hopefully build it up to £8000.we have employed a canvasser who takes the first clean money hes been doing ok for us prob built it up 1200 last four weeks. he was pricing a little low so we gave him a kick up backside n now hes pulling in houses at better prices.we will just keep him going till we get to where we want to be with 2 vans going out and 2 employees.richy

my realistic goals are quite simple and modest really for 2010!get a ford transit connect for £3,000-£3,500,logod polo shirts/fleece.design some new leaflets for getting better paying work.creep up prices of underpriced compact work every april.price better for new work etc,etc.WFP eventually but maybe pospone it till ive got a few spare grand knocking about!still unsure of it as i like trad and im used to tradpole work that eliminates a lot of unsafe window cleaning.it sounds too much hassle and expense especially with being in a first floor flat on a water meter.also had a lot of people saying that domestic custys DO NOT LIKE WFP!!its also easier to leave a mess of the windows.also leave them cleaner for longer!who wants that?u want ur custys to have them cleaned once a month!!(in the main)the thought of fillin a tank up every night with a hose up my stairs for an hour,unreeling all that hose and gettin dog crap on it,keep havin to move the van.equipment problems that frustrate u.high overheads,problems in winter with frost,shoulder/neck/back/elbow problems.and some of u guys are only cleaning as many houses a day as me so not really much faster on average houses taking into consideration unreeling hoses,stopping/starting the van etc,etc.doesnt seem to me to have that many benefits for the domestic WC with all the extra hassle
