unpaid canvasser
« on: September 09, 2009, 05:49:09 pm »
I've got this elderly woman who thinks it's her job to get me customers  ???
I did a cheap gutter clean for her a year or so ago and the bloomin woman keeps phoning me up with new customers. I don't want any more but she keeps going.  :-\

Please - take her. She phones my mobile and I haven't stored her number "hello It's me!"  ??? takes me a couple of minutes to work out who it is.

God, i've just had a thought - don't suppose she's after me?  :o

I wouldn't be complaining.. I wish every elderly lady would pass my details onto 5 people...

You can get them. I came across a neighbourhood watch lady who's windy hadn't been seen for 4 months. After 3 months cleaning her house I now clean 1,3,5,6,7 and 5 others just round the corner.

Why not price them up and pass on some of your not so good work to another windy
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

The trouble with the unpaid canvassers is that they tend to pass your name onto their mates who live in similar houses and so you have to charge the same money...which is no good if your unpaid canvassers house is underpriced.

I know what your saying. You done a cheap job for her, she tells everyone and now everyone she tells about you wants the same.
