I suppose that if it's well written, informative, comprehensive and accurate then it would be worth money to someone who knows little or nothing about the subject.  It could certainly help them to avoid some of the mistakes myself and others have made.  £299 though - and not even a hard copy supplied?  That's far too much.  I could write such a book myself up to a certain level.  There would be big blank areas around cradle, cherry picking and abseiling though.  Even the stuff I haven't done, I could probably cobble together enough info to write about.

A company called Vissap is behind this publication

http://www.windowcleaning.co.uk

A £300 manual on how to set up a window cleaning business.  Even with a DVD, I think thats very expensive.

Someone I know had dealings with them as a sub-contractor, and his advice was to avoid like the plague.

Sorry, been away frightening my son with fireworks!

That is the right link, I think it is a total waste of money, and can the company really guarantee all it is offerering?

But if you need a dvd to get you started in cleaning, then you are doomed from the start. Lets hope loads buy it, with that type of mentality they certainly wont be any competition for me.
