Canvassers?
« on: December 02, 2008, 06:57:23 pm »
Hi all :)

I know this has been asked before... but I find the replies too confusing to work out... so here goes.... in the opinion of you all, who is the best canvassing company to use? Are they national? I hear good thngs about Roundbuilders...?

Thanks for any help you can give me... need to expand fast, and don't have much success canvassing :(

I use roundbuilders, can not fault the service or quality of work. I have them booked in for 2 weeks end of jan begin feb, they used to do a week or so a month for me, but they have become really busy over the last year. I use there commercial canvassing service, can recommend that as well. There are a few companies out there now, you just need to speak to them all and go with who you feel are right.  :)

Good stuff, I did like the look of them. However, they're based in Suffolk, and I'm in York.. so their travelling expenses would be rather huge! Do you know how much they charge per mile? When they canvass commercial work, do they just generate leads which you follow up, or do they go to the site and price up the work? I could imagine that would save some cash!

I think, you would have to check but 42p per mile over 60 miles seems to ring a bell??? They would probably book digs i would of thought.
The commercial side they book appointments for you, not give leads. I have had all my big contracts come from them, but i get small schools up to large private schools, collages and small care homes. Im not interested in the big care homes, they are a nightmare for descions.

Brilliant, thanks, will see if I can get some commercial work from them. Know how you mean about care homes, can be a bituva nightmare  :P Do they charge per lead or per successful tender?
