Title: Just browsing eBay...
Post by: supernova77 on May 06, 2013, 09:51:03 pm
I'm just browsing eBay and came across this:

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/waterfed-pole-system-window-cleaning-/321120679613

Nothing wrong with the ad - Just makes me laugh at the bottom where it says "Bear in mind with this equipment you can earn £1000 per week easily."

How about needing enough customers to do that? It takes years to build up (unless you buy the work)... This is why there are so many new WFP'ers starting up thinking its easy money.

Thoughts?

nice ad - most of the equipment seems to be decent quality except of the brodex pole.

Why is he selling ?

upgraded perhaps ? retirement ? change in family cirs's..  whatever ....   1k a week with this equipment
yes easily  - the point being made by the ad is that with wfp that is possible - it may be possible trad
but then you really would be working your socks off.

just about any idiot can wash windows ( altho looking at some of late i do wonder  ::)roll )  this
game is about getting and keeping customers - door knocking combined with good service, quality clean and reliability will increase your customer base very rapidly
