you might have to dig a little deep to find the customers as its competetive  but theres always dirty windows waiting.

If you have the motivation it's never a bad time. People will tell you that customers you pick up in winter are generally the best sort, i.e. they genuinely want a regular service.

Best time to start.

When you get to spring/ summer....(if you last the winter), you will wander what all the fuss was about!

Best time. If you can start when economy is rough and the weather is not the best, then all the other time it will be a breeze :)

going to be a hard slog trying to get customers though, bad enough getting a NO NO NO door after door when the economy is good.

Don't get knocked back by all the no's you get. Once yer get going it's amazing how many people see you and also your pick up customers by word of mouth. Look out fellahs winters coming.
