i would much rather have my money in my pocket that someone else and build up to it, you wouldn't do it in any other business so why do it with window cleaning
But how can the poor bo' do any work unless he has the gear first? LOL
As for other businesses, sorry but yes you would. You'd get the stuff you needed first of course lol.
If I was opening a bakery I wouldn't wait until I had 20 customers in the door before thinking "I think I'll buy an oven now"
haha thats a stupid think to use, but if you were opening a bakery for the first time you would want to know how to bake surely?
and have some experience in the bakery world and then start of with very basic oven etc,
the equivalent of window cleaning, find out if you like it, if your good at it, get a ladder, bucket, squeegee, mop, scrims, scraper, roof rack, and your away, £300,
its not about having the money or not, peter jones and Duncan ballentine have the money but they dont throw it around
