Post by: LWC on April 15, 2009, 08:06:00 am: I keep getting more and more work everyday, need to chill out fo a bit as im falling behind at mo, could do with condensing round to be honest, i havent canvassed, well bar 5 years ago when i started, but the rest has come from people calling me, which has resulted in a very big round but lots of travelling, ive just had 5000 flyers done and am going to condense it

Have a great week

Dave.

Post by: Dave Turley on April 16, 2009, 08:01:31 am: you could leaflet the main roads (often big houses/nice villages) which you travel along to get to those outlying houses.

only worth doing if the outlying houses are good to start with.

also, if you have lots of work and don't want to employ, just everything expensive!
