I used to earn 38 grand a year, Be lucky if i am on a 3rd of that now (steadily rising though). I was skint then, and am skint now. More you earn the more you spend. But the time at home with kids and girlfriend more than makes up for the drop in earnings.  8)

I would not listen to half the people on here as they live on a different planet, also half of the info if not more on here is wrong. What people need to do is deside who they think is telling the truth or not and what info if right or wrong: does make the forum interesting though  ;D.

not many will be telling the truth i find it hard to believe people can earn 3k plus a month unless you got a really special round,i earn around £400 a week and cant see how i could go any faster to earn big money in the future especially with british weather

as rwc said it all depends where you live in the country. Im not hungry to go mad day in day out 6 days a week but if i was and did that then i guess id earn extreamly well in region of 6k a month as im in south london and can get good top prices. It does me doing shortish days and being able to juggle everything else around work which is how i choose to stay.

It is mainly about how many hours you work obviously, and well compact your round is , how quick you are at cleaning and how well priced the work is

the better you get at these things the more you earn

Its funny though that you lads soing 100 -150 a day will take him a good portion of that with low overheads if you run it right, whereas the guys doing 400 -500 a day will no doubt have 2 lads working and have all that hassle etc although they will earn more

Dont be down about what you earn unless you need more, i always try earn more per hour so i can maximize my earnings but i am young and have a young family, whereas my bro in law plods along earning 100 a day and is happier and usually better off than me anyway...

Cleaning I earn £20-£30 per hour at the mo I am only working about 20 hours per week.
A lot of people on here forget to mention all the unpaid hours you do for your business, like dropping flyers, door knocking etc.

My earnings are fairly good,.. but take home pay is completely different. Take off the VAT, tax, fuel & vehicle costs, equipment costs, insurance, accountants etc etc etc and personally I really need to earn that amount just to pay my bills.

I would still need to do it because I wouldnt be happy with just "having enough" If I can expand I will. thats how I see my business moving in the next few years.
