If you had 50K to invest in your window cleaning business how would you spend it ?
-
2 new vans
-
2k into a bit of equipement and 48k on a villa in Thailand......
;)

Think I would struggle to invest a full £50k.
The things I would invest in / upgrade though are:-
Website - ~£3k - top of google for all the areas I'd like, not just my local town.
Equipment - ~£5k - 2 full sets of gardiners poles (including the 61ft supermax im probably going to have to buy soon)
Van - ~£12k - mines got 103k on the clock so it's going to need upgrading sooner or later.
Marketing - £10k - Would probably invest in an experienced telemarketer to chase more commercial work.
Apart from that I'm struggling. I'm happy with everything like my system, uniform etc.

I would not have a partner in my business sleeping or not.
When the money coming in slows down the sleeping partner will wake up ;) ;)

I thought you posted this as a bit of fun as if you found the money. I wouldn't invest it if it was a loan.
Im happy to keep growing my business organically rather than take on large amounts of debt / stress overnight to achieve my goals. :)
-
I would pay a chunk of my mortgage.

Run or walk but know what your mean Deege

A brisk walk occasionally turning into a jog I'd say :)

I'd invest it in cable and wireless shares ;D ;D ;D

Send me the money and ill set you a van up and system no problem and id keep the change for my good will. ;D

You've got to be insane to accept 50k off someone for a piece of your set up. All you can do with it is buy more work and employ staff, which means either head ache or you could do it yourself anyway without giving away a stake of what you've built up.
How much would it represent, sharewise?
-
hitman for you lol ;) ;) ;)
-
A box at QPR. ;D ;D

Who has died?

I would spend on getting another 2 vans, training up 3 guys and the rest on marketing
-
50 grand cash might buy somebody out , id do that only as long as they had decent workers

Came from a conversation I had with an old boss whos got plenty of money and a finger in a few differrent businesses.
Idea would be to grow business and have an agreed period when it would be sold.
Not got as far as discussing percentages etc
Hes good at what he does and is a decent bloke ... likes to create wealth as he puts it.
I can do it on my own just gonna take a lot longer as I aint got 50K ... 50p perhaps :D

In my experience. Although not had an offer like that!
Stick to what your doing, work hard at it and the rest will follow...getting other people involved with YOUR business is a bad move imo. You stay the boss...you call the shots.

I don't know off the top of my head... I would have a long think about it.

I'd get Kenny Dalglish to spend it for me.
He'd probably get me two Harris poles, a used rubber, a bucket with no handle and half a bottle of Fairy, for that sort of dough :P ;D.
-
a one way ticket out of this poop pit we call great briton ;D
-
I have way, way more than that in the bank FROM window cleaning. You certainly don't need to invest anything much in window cleaning.
K.I.S.S.

It is what he ought to have spent on Andy Carroll.
