I might be interested in the Farnham (and surrounding area) work... Depends what quality it is though? Whats the average house price per clean?

its down to high outgoings i need to make 1600 before profit and during the crud weat

Resstructure the debt or find ways of being more efficient. Even then after making £1600 you have £3400 per month profit. If its not much at least you have something to work on to improve

Why bother doing a 10k leaflet drop when you are only getting through 70% of your work at present? Something doesn't add up here.

£5k is good for a round that does not make a profit and you want rid of.

So give me a shout when you change your mind . Cheers

Sounds like you've got 5k worth of work which is nigh on impossible to complete in a month.

Would be interested to hear how many customers you have

 i have 371 custs. on a serious note do you think this is a lot of custs for the amount of money the houses are all diferent sizes i have sum houses which are 40 ish quid in hindhead but if you knw the area there not small but there not massive.   im alwaystold my prices are quite gud by other windies maybe there pulling my leg. im doing the 10 k leaflet drop cus i was up for a big amount of work so i cud help my bro out with work his 19 so at the mo he 800 a month which is half of the run nin costs hell be getting let go soon if icant swing things around and if a serious buyer comes in id just flog and start again without the overheads

the running costs are fuel 400 easy and 600 on van and ins and equipment and advertising which i will stop as its rubbish.
I actually remember hating it last winter does any1 else struggle like this or do i need to re evaluate the round.

I am only 24 and have limited no how with running a buisness i thought id be the nuts cus i was a great sales manager so i thought lol but it seems i havealot to learn i do genuinley own this round and have worked bl@@dy hard to get here but it doesnt seem worth it. im entrigued to know what you think about the 371 custs tho
