He seems to have mixed reviews, anyone used Whizz Bizz lately and pleased with results?
I don't want any cheapo work, I only canvass £20+ houses so would need a canvasser that's willing to do that, I heard Whizz Bizz goes for £6 fronts?

I disagree, where I live there are thousands of £20+ properties, I usually average 1 or 2 an hour new customers, at 2x value thats £40-£80 an hour that a canvasser would make.
I don't have enough time to canvass now as too busy with current workload but I want more customers to fill my round up to max and then put another van out.

The best way is to do it your self,you can then pick and price the houses you want,a canvasser from there point of view will target all houses to gain the amount of work you want,to reach the figure required in the shortest time as they also have a bussiness to run.thats my view but I could be wrong

Some of that work you had in Andover ended up being rubbish? canvassed work is unreliable.

I agree. I also agree with the OP that canvassers want to sell you cheap. I think it was Whizz Bizz that said it is effectively begging and you have to be realistic. From the horse's mouth.

Culled all the crap and got about a weeks work left in Andover now Steve, but canvassed myself nearly 3 weeks of work in Romsey and Southampton.
Need about another £600 a month to be where I want to be but don't have the time to canvass that much in one hit hence wanting to try another canvasser.
Yes I know there will be some crap again but there will also be some good stuff aswell, the week I do in Andover is well priced (most of it) and been going nearly 2 years now.

It's correct that Hampshire is a bit far for me, but i do cover more than just the Midlands and North, but not the South coast or South of London.
