Well It has to say you are a window cleaner that's the most important. It has to have your phone number on.
The least you put on the better but basically you've got a choice between listing benefits, or listing additional services.
Some put a good photo on
What sort of system do you have?(i want to know if it's relavent)

Go to a printer's, they will do a design for you. (for a small fee!)

When you are happy with the final proof, go with that.

Add any extra info  www, tel, services etc

i did and they were'nt much good i think the lad was having a bad day as he did'nt put any effort into it and it looked awful for a pro  :(

I think I can help you woodsey.
This is my opinion.
The system makers advertise themselves. I believe (but am not certain) that you would be allowed to use the graphic you mention (I'm carefull because they are a bit litigous).
What I did was put that I use HOT  water on the side of my van.
