This thread isn’t very cool.

It's not. Should probably be modded really. If you feel strongly about it you should maybe report it to the moderator(s).

However, I suppose if you're going to put your head above the parapet you can expect people to take shots at it.

Especially if you've got a daft haircut.

The issue is with deep cleaning is that everyone can do it in less time and less money and so you can compete by matching that or making the customer feel your 30 hours are worth paying for.

A 4 bed though 30 hours of work is not terrible if it includes the fill works, oven carpets etc. Imagine a team of 4, that's about 8 hours each. Doesn't seem terribly far off if the property is also bad

100 customers? That’s not even 10 days average work on my round!
101 now, picked up a new one today. Don't like to rush into things as I do other work. Don't advertise now, it means I usually get new customers when they see me out cleaning. I have 6 or so that I just tell them to call me when they want their windows cleaned, bigger money ones and I don't count them as customers. At the end of the day its still money coming in.

Get employees and send them out to do all the work for you, then you can doss about in the office/home or if you get bored of that do 2 days on the glass per week and 1-2 days per week on admin whilst employees do like 80% of the work.

But in all seriousness for me

1. Univalve
2. Swivel Neck
3. Exceed Hoseless
4. 35cm Dupont Sill Brush with 4 1.4mm Pencil Jets for insanely fast rinsing.
5. GoCardless all the way.  No chasing payments/debt reminders cashflow improves so much, especially if you are running more than 1 van setups.
6. Cleanerplanner / Squeegee for easier admin life.
