anyone got a contact number for them?

Door knockers very good canvassing firm , highly recommended , just make sure you verbally confirm frequency with new custies before payment
Paul Bass 07533 430905 / 07862 271852

not answering either phone, and mailbox full, either too busy and hugely successful at what he does and has hundreds of voiccemails on both phones, or.....a dodgy barsteward who doesn't want to talk to anyone?!

i wonder... ::)

why arn't you out working!?! ;D

todays a canvassing day, starting shortly!

after painting my garage floor with THE most expensive paint in the world(!), and cutting the lawn...thanks mrs.

Im having the same problem getting a hold of crass bass!  He did have swine flu I believe but it is a nightmare to get hold of him.  He has canvassed me some good work at times but has absolutely not an ounce of common sense.  His favourite trick is to go into a nice village and then canvass the most horrible council estate in it for you.  He doesn't listen to any of your instructions and the customers he gets expect you to fone before you clean which is an absolute no go in my book!!!

He is constantly downbeat when you speak to him I think he may suffer from depression and when he is down doesn't answer his fone.  It's a shame because he isn't a bad bloke and his business has a lot of potential which is wasted.

that sums him up down to a tee! he isn't a bad bloke and when he canvassed it wasn't to bad, his workers on the otherhand are dishonest and will pass off anything as a sign up! also the end result was always a lot of hassle and you had whittle down to good customers so expect a lot of cancellations!!

Having just had the wife going out to canvass, I can highly recommend it. Both my wife and my son went out Monday night and got 17 quotes and 6 maybe's in about 5 hours. I rang them all last night, introduced myself, had a little chat and banter and going round Thursday evening to price them all. Most have said they are happy for me to go round back, and they don't even know me, just the reassurance on the phone and a little bit of trust I suppose. I'll let you know how many I get, and if its good feeback, then I'll be kicking her out again this week ;D ;D ;D...lol
If Carlsberg made window cleaners....I'd be one of them....lol

Fieldsy,

Excellent result!


Does anyone know the name of the canvassing group in Maidenhead or surrounds?

I had it but have lost it

My own experience..........................had a meeting, agreed everything, they pulled out without even tellingme! false promises!
Another window cleaner I know had over £600 cancellations/not required/One offs and managed a £100 refund!!!
