Post by: GallClean1 on October 19, 2009, 01:19:30 pm
Spoke to an old window cleaner I used to work for years ago and he told me he pays his canvasser £15ph! Says he brings him in at least 10 new jobs every day. He works from 11am till 7pm. Any one else pay ther canvasser £15ph?

Just like buying a round really.
He pays the guy £15ph for 8hrs= £120
The guy brings in 10 new monthly jobs in a day @ say £10=£100 x 12months = £1200 - the £120 he paid the canvasser = yearly profit of £1080
 So them 10 custys that he paid the canvasser £120 for at the start, make him money all year round

No?

I am sure he subs some work out and gets 25% from the subbie. As I said before he has 4 vans and 10 full time cleaners so it defo would be able to do it. Hes 65 now and still goes out himself and does down stair windows. He starts at 7 and finishes at 1 and his boys start at 7 till 4.

I'm not arguing with that, but your figures assume he gets 10 jobs a day. In any case, good luck to him :)

10 jobs in 8 hours... easy at ten pound

I would be worried if he didnt avg that over a week!
