i did a leaflet drop the other day on an estate of 4 and 5 bedroom houses.there are 180 posh houses.most of the windows were filthy so im hopeful ill pick up a few!! ;D ;D
my bare min to make it worth it to start off with is 5 x £20 houses.
these houses will all be put on a 2 monthly basis,text night before clean,BACS transfer or SAE.
ill report back later.
WISH ME LUCK!!!!! ;D ;D ;D ;D

update
around 40 houses knocked that were in.loads said they had a window cleaner(frames,doors and sills and awkward windows filthy).one woman said no we dont want a window cleaner(her windows were absolutely minging!)
one guy said "how much do you charge" i said £15 for yours.he said well our window cleaner charges £7 and he s been cleaning theirs for 6 years!"
quite a few said they clean their own.4 said they would think about it and get back to me.loads not in!to be honest i think im better going one night in the week between 630pm-830pm!
ive not picked up a single customer yet!i made a note of all the ones not in(which was the vast majority!).i think cos its half term lots of potential customers still on holiday/out for the day.
oh well!better luck in the week!i only need 5 x £20 houses to make it worthwhile going up there to start with!

Unlucky mate, i've found Saturdays can be a bit hit or miss.
I've had some good results on Saturdays and other times hardly anyones home.
This is why I think the leaflet first thing is a waste of time, lets face it 99% either have a windie or dont want one. Its our job to find the 1% that do so its too much mucking about leafleting a whole estate and then going back and canvassing when the chances are you wont get anything anyway.
Personally I just get out cold calling, works for me
