Title: Just starting?
Post by: Roy Harding on August 17, 2006, 05:43:42 pm

When I first started. I had a full time job through the week and cleaned on saturdays. I found you pick up a lot more work as you went around as a lot more people saw you at the weekend.

So it may pay a person starting up to try saturday cleaning and see if it makes a differnce.

School holidays are good too for picking up extra work, since the lady of the house is often home with the kids; therefore increasing your chances of being seen and asked for a quote.

I was thinking that myself as I'am just starting out and finding it difficult to get work, thought i might do family freinds ect. especialy with the gutter fascia and conservatory side of the buisness, could start a keeping up with the jones type scenario.
