Big boys!!!
« on: June 25, 2010, 05:21:08 pm »
I had a thought this morning; I've never seen any of the really serious players in the Plymouth window cleaning world on this site. We have a couple of very successful lads who have a lot of the more prestigous - is that how you spell it? - contracts and they're never on here. Do you think that's their secret ???

Whilst we're on here debating the wfp v trad argument, bragging about takings and generally talking twaddle these guys are out running their business, making more money and winning more contracts.

Just a thought ;)
Come and talk dirty to us!!!

It tells you that they earn enough money not to have to scrimp for cheapo equipment, nor do they convert fishing poles in to wfp.

We're not a big company, more medium sized, but we use decent gear and it does pay off in the long run.

But back to my original post, I just reckon that the "big boys" don't bother with a forum like this as there's nothing at all on here that could possibly be of any benefit to their business; and they don't need to go on an ego trip by boasting about their takings or how many houses they can clean in a day :)

thats why i decided on a proper trolley from pure freedom.itll pay me back tenfold!and its a very good pro piece of equipment!

BUT!!ewan if you ve not seen waggas videos on converting a shopping trolley into a trolley with a backpack on then its a must see!!i think hes really funny!!ive been howling with laughter at this guy!!

he cant help himself HE HAS TO MODIFY EVERYTHING HE GETS!!!!a great british eccentric guy and i love him!!

BUT ill stick to the best equipment i can afford!!

lets not get snobby though ewan i bet its not long ago if you search inside your head where you just had a scrim and a old ladder!! ;) ;D ;D ;D ;D

price higher/work harder!

When your starting up you need to ask questions to build your confidence and push you on. The sites great for this.

Once your experienced i think your own business instincts take over and your find the level of work and stress that you want. I dont think when your at this stage you need the help but to pass of encouragement to the starters.

There are plenty of ARS**OLES on this forum though and when they become addicted and rely on the site it becomes pathetic
