hi carl,
wasnt you leafleting how did that go in the end?
i know you said you dont want to do it but hear me out a min,
sub a few days out here and there its alot easyer finding a trust worthy subbie then a canvasser who will be putting his income before yours thats natural.
you care about your round more then say cleaning a one off the canvasser wants to earn money or there is no food on his table end off.
a good subbie will always be happy cos he is earning a decent wage with no admin or crap to deal with the customers just make sure your subbie is happy.and pay him regardless of customers refusing to pay or any crap like that , just go and investigate the clean yourself as long as its ok stand by your subbie and keep him sweet.
so you have freed 2 days a week right?
now YOU canvass ALONE later on employ your own you will pick up what you want how you want price you want and YOU will sniff a one off and walk where as a canvasser will say its a BRILLIANT customer
