Yes mate, Jimiwindows and MWC and maybe even one or two more will be opening a "Posh High Flying Only Do Commercial Work" section on here soon. No plebs or tossers, just proper windies. They'll invite you in as soon as it's open.  ;)

This is a great forum for ideas on equipment, and other widow cleaning related skills or whatever, but I'd have to say its not always that useful when someone brings up ideas on marketing or for instance the recent post asking about apprenticeships.

Why would you think that ?
This is a great forum for ideas on marketing plenty of great posts on canvassing, leafleting and so on.
As with every forum people are going to have their own opinions on how to do things based on their everyday
experiences.
Even in the posts that get heated you will always find something worth thinking about.

Every window cleaner is a business man with there own business are they not??
I have over 1100 customers and 2 vans out and in a few months building a third round but i still class myself as a window cleaner. Maybe in a few years when im off the tools and just maintaining my business and replacing the odd dropouts and looking after day to day running of things ill rename myself as overpaid skivy.
I do agree with you but untill you have a multi million pound empire what makes you better than anyone else?
