Title: Phone/Email enquiries
Post by: mike1986 on April 07, 2020, 04:08:49 pm
Has it gone quiet for everyone? I’ve picked up a few new customers in work but not virtually zero phone calls or website enquiries since Coronavirus

Getting more walk ups than usual.  Calls and emails very low for time of year.

Practically dried up here also. 1 nice one off enquired today but apart from that it’s been dead for 3 weeks. Usually getting 4-5 enquiries a week in April.

I had one phone me today that I’d dumped asking if I was still window cleaning. Thinking swiftly on my feet I said that due to the virus I’m not working at the moment but will call him when I’m back. I’ll put him back on the round to fill a gap if I get any cancellations. He’s a bit of an old moaner but I’ll put up with him for the time being.

The first week of lock down we had a slight increase of calls.

But this last week has been dead. I think we've had 2 new customer calls in the last week.

Even the spam and sales calls have stopped, and I used to love winding them up a bit :)

Don’t get many phone or online enquires. As I do zero advertising . 7 walk ups last week . Plus 9 already this week . Well some of em were jog ups . All cleaned and paid . Just past some more of my fringe work on to my son .
