Majority of my work is Commercial but do some residential, an old lady asked if I could please do her bungalow as the window cleaner turns up when he wants sometimes don't see him for months, I said I don't really do residential really couldn't be bothered to do more as I got quite a few fairly big houses I do once a month and I don't really like doing them as I prefer my commercial stuff. She really pleaded with me so took it on and did it after my main work on the way home. I then get the neighbours now do around 15 which takes around hour n half as you know the old folk like a chat. Drives me mad sometimes as I just wanna get on get them done then gone. Doing them yesterday a girl around 30 came over said she missed me last month so pleased she see me and asked her to clean hers and how month. Only charge a fiver back and front as there not big should be around £7 but most are old so do them pretty cheap. It's not in my income as it's cash and abit of pocket money. Anyway she said yes great I said you want them don't every month yes she said ok I'm here around 18th or 19th each month cool she said. Go over they were quite dirty anyway we clean it as we were about to finish she says no just do them as a one off I've not got £5 each month, I was so peed of I looked at her and said your joking you should be paying double that as a one off, she said ill look out for ya when they need doing again, yeah right she will ill tell her I'm to busy next time
What would yous have done, I know it's only a fiver but what a cheek I wouldnt have bothered to do it in the first place, some people got so much front 😳

Take the money, take a deep breath, and when she pulls you up next time just say you cant fit her in as you have too many booked in for the day
And next ask whether they want a regular or one off before you clean

I don't start till I've agree a one off price and a regular price, that way your covered...
Mr B
-
I did agree a price and on a monthly bases !!!!
Only when I was nearly finished she said o I can't afford five pound each month just do this as a one off to then I said this should have been double for a one off !!!!!

If you are going to post please read story as the posts I have has back are saying agree a price for a one off first ?
I did agree for a monthly clean each month before I started !!!!
Please read properly before leaving the same thread, once again I asked her before I started if she wants them done each month and she agreed !!! Lol !!!

i was more shocked by its not in my income just pocket money :P :P :P . Mike

I'm in two minds whether to charge double on first clean and offer 6th clean free as loyalty so to avoid the first clean then cancel scenario, or just charge extra full stop. Although I know that the first clean on WFP won't be 100%, I also don't like people trying to extract ones urine.

Don't do any cleans cheaper.
Charge more for first clean. It takes longer. End of.

Dal tbh m8 that's what I should have done in the first place, charged her double due to being a first clean as it was dirty !!!! Ill do that if anymore ask
Mike don't be shocked m8 lol !!! As I said it's not in my income as I'm 99% commercial which I have to invoice and pay tax & vat on, so the few houses I have are cash jobs which is pocket money so not to bothered if I lose any of my houses as the money is not accustomed to anything or bills mortgage ect ect 👍

I understand what you mean now it's a bit extra to your solid commercial so any houses is a little extra money in your pocket to spend on what you want , you were not saying you weren't declaring the earnings . Mike

There was no nastiness at all in my first post to you. Was merely pointing out that you might want to think about posting stuff like that on a public forum.
But hey, it's up to you.

Hummer it wasn't your first post it was the second post calling me thick but hey no offence taken, it should be a forum of help and advice and a little bit of banter

Most of the time give the 1st clean price and then monthly.
Usually 25-50% more first clean.
Just helps take the sting out of the tricksey monkey custies.
Been done quite a few times with that one.
Got some fascia gutter cleaning quotes to drop off to some custies next week, don't think they'll be happy.
I like the way they say give it a quick wash over ;D
Custie speak for "Cheap".
Don't do it too cheap Danny bungalows £12 allround minimum ;) £7.50 fronts incl refreshments.

Danny's said before, if i remember correctly, he turns over about £130k. Danny?
Hummer, no idea.
Danny is below the £150k enhanced accounts anyway so doesn't tell one much.
Hummer, whats his company called?
See what you can see.
I tried DueDil when you suggested it a while back but couldn't make head nor tail tbh.
I still need to find out about 2 maybe 3 company's before i get into bed with them.

I'm not bothered Dan. Pleased for what you've got for yourself but makes no odds to me.
I am interested in finding out about a couple of company's but couldn't find what CC found.

That 15k number is nothing to do with turnover/profit it is ....assets, minus liabilities.

No probs Darren,(Poleking)thanks for claryfying Alfie.
To all that's bothered about my earnings or what I have achieved in window cleaning maybe some are bothered maybe some couldn't care less !!!!
I don't need to lie in what I'm earning or what I've got, I've always said what I feel whether peeps like it or not, perhaps I should keep quiet sometimes but that's not me I say it how it is as some who know my posts going back many years.
Ps I don't mind sharing perhaps others would like to share what they turnover, as for me couldn't careless who knows.
Ps Dal thanks for your kind words in congratulating me for what I've achieved 👍
