After some of the sarky replys to his last thread It will be amazing if Lee replies.

This guy comes up with a great idea which can help all concerned and people knock it straight away.

Whatever Lee puts his hands to he will most likely succeed in.

Not having a knock at you just the few doom and gloom merchants.

I asumed your question was out of interest.

Sorry if you thought I was directing the reply at you.

Wow that chill pill worked! ;)

well its a fair question.
the answer is this.

It works! I have had a response from a huge area accross the south east, thats the good news.

the bad news is so far it has been very slow and given the sunny weather I thought it would be much better. On the other hand these things can take a bit of time to really get going. Lots of my friends have said they have heard the add so thats good. Also some of the customers I have sold said they thought it was a great idea and loved it. I have not broken even yet this month but still might.

Today I also signed up for a trial with an internet marketing company.

Rome wasnt built in a day. theres nothing wrong with the idea, its just getting people to the site.

Fair play Lee, I think with radio is it takes a while to register in folks brains, and there is never going to be massive uptake in the first week.

I know a guy that ran a national ad in daily paper for 12 months (not window cleaning) before he got the return he needed but he is a very happy guy now ;) good luck

ps I still wouldn't buy a customer :D but loads will so best of luck to you

I would imagine it will take 12-24 months for this project  to become practical.

But keep at it LEE.

Lee, someone phoned me after hearing your ad last week. They live on the Kingston Gorse estate in East Preston, I have passed your number on to them and told them it was your ad not mine so if I took the job on I would of been out of order. All I  know is his name is Bob its 5 bedrooms plus annex and wants a monthly clean. Hope he phones you if not i,ve just turned down a £70 job.
