Today was a good day for me!

Also picked up 4 new customers totalling £95 every 8 weeks!

JD one thing you've never told us on here is how good you are at canvassing. I mean I'll bet your conversion rate is pretty impressive, and your return on leaflets is to die for i'm sure. Half these people haven't got a clue, they could learn a lot from you, like how to quote etc. Best not clutter this with off topic stuff, give it some thought and start a new thread.

No, I've made enough money tuesday-thursday.
Why sweat?

You should only have to work one day a week surely?

When i do my customers a day early it doesnt equate to full time work. I think it works out that at the end of the year if i was a day early every month it would give me an extra month of work. So whatefer your month earnings are you can add that to your total at the end of the year. I could be wrong!
