a customer told me in sept last year that they are having some building work done so skip next months i couldnt do them in oct due to the work still being done the same nov in dec they were out xmas shopping jan was cancelled due to the snow feb they were away friday i turn up having taken them off the books her husband stops me in the street " you had better get down to our place pretty sharpish shes not happy with you " which i laughed at
i get opposite her place she comes charging out shouting " you'd better be doing mine today " i explained ive had to replace her with someone else as its been so long since shes had them done
" you havnt done them for 7 months "she shouted " i couldnt get access due to the over running building work and then the weather and her being out and that they now have a new fence with a locked gate"
"do them today or i will get someone else "
"ok no problem thank you for your custom "
they really do think we need them and they are the only customers we have
rant over !!

>Johnny h: They need educating don't they? ;D
Like hitman says, well done for keeping your cool! What did she say when you refused to do them?
-
the thing is we just dont need it! all us windys do our very best 2get round all our work.

good on you,

Whats the problem ... why not just do them and tell them it'll be double as they are so dirty. That way you are making more than usual and keeping an extra customer.
If another window cleaner comes into the street you may lose more than just that one customer!

that has never bothered me, cause i know i always do a good job ;)

But it is not good for business. It doesn't matter how good a job you do.
If someone else comes into the area you are making more competition for yourself.

Would you take verbal abuse like that from a customer and let them talk down to you as if your muck, I know i wouldnt.
