We have had no luck advertising for canvassers lately. Gumtree has never worked well for us. What do you think is a decent yearly salary for a full time canvasser?

Too right why pay good money when if im honest anyone can knock on a door and ask if they need a window cleaner.. Paying x2 is a win! Paying 1 clean is a better win! Paying £5 per new customer is magic!!. ;D

Text me mate in morn and will sort something out for you in a few weeks! You will have to pick her up from dartford but she will get you work and you have to give her dough at end of canvass session but at £5 a customer your on a win win.
