Title: Most popular window cleaning quote from a customer!
Post by: Klean07 on July 07, 2017, 07:38:21 am
I've been in this job a few years but every time I do a canvas I get the same feedback from potential new customer which is; "Are you going to come regular because our last one only came twice then we never saw him again"!!

i dont canvass anymore but when i did the most common was "no thank you we already have a window cleaner" OR "our last window cleaner only charged £4,i think £15 is too expensive"

Also you have to learn how to translate customer comments correctly. 

When they say "my last window cleaner stopped coming after 2 clean" really means " i don't like paying my bills"  ;D

"I'll pay online tonight"

Translates to I'll pay in a few weeks after you've reminded me 3 times or threatened court action.
