Just remember when pricing work not to go to low as you cant compare the money you take from a customer to the money you got paid by your old boss.
Say you got £50 at the end of the day before, that was yours to go down the pub or buy some shopping, pay your bills or do with what you choose.
If you was to do two rooms now and earn £50 in a hour it seems great, but in effect you will have probably earnt little to nothing dont forget all this advertising be it parish mags, y/p or leaflets all has to come out of this as well as fuel costs, insurance, phone bill, chemicals and a whole load of other stuff.
You will also find that keeping a van and cc machine on the road is a expensive buisness as they will break down and you have no choice but to repair them else you aint getting to work the following day. And then to top it off i rekon this industry must get more last minute cancellations than any other leaving you gaps in your diary even when you think you are fully booked.
All this is not to put you off, just be realistic when setting your prices as you will come across a lot of obsticals day to day. Its no good setting them on par with a daily wage else when something goes wrong in the week it will swallow all your profit and you will have done a weeks work for nothing
For example this week i had a decent weeks work booked in not loads but something every day some jobs paying as much as £100 a hour. Then yesterday the brakes went on the van costing me £200 and i had a job cancell to the tune of £245 thats all my profit for the week gone now, had i have been charging lower prices i would have made a loss this week, and if my prices were to low and i had no reserve money in the bank i may have not even been able to fix the van meaning i would have been out of buisness
Also if you can get 2 leads out of 500 leaflets, why not pay somebody to deliver 1000 a day you would be getting 4 leads a day much more than you would ever get from y/p
