You'll get bombarded with £20+ customers & NO £5 to £10 ones!

It would probably lose me 90% of my work if I made them all a tenner

[bobplum]

your bored arent you
bob

[richywilts]

i was thinkin to just reel in the bigger jobs for now with it maybe coz the two lads who work for me would still blitz the larger jobs even for 12 months then u either lose them or put price up to what it should be when there all made up with ur work etc

[richywilts]

bored yes bob waiting for the missus to come n watch a film with me

[ronnie paton]

richy dont satrt something you dont want to continue, its ok doing  this cause you want to pay a wage but its about profit and for that you nedd good pricing

[Pope vader]

i think it is a good idea richy,  i would just add t and c like them must pay one line and can be dont in light rain, and tell then that is wny u can offer the service  as cost are kept to the minimum

[Jackal]

crazy idea mate,like been said in earlier post all the new houses you get are going be under priced,custys arnt going pay £10 if there house isnt worth that,just get some leaflets or canvasssing done if you need more work for your lads

[Gav Camm lammy 283]

richy m8 im 100% sure
the work is going to come in
checking my diary our schools r due
lol yr work is 6 wkly now yeah

[Pope vader]

I don't know, the worst that could happen he gets loads of 20 quid work from other cleaners and they take the hump and burn his van out that is pretty drastic but I am sure you get the picture

thats business, do you think asda care if they put a special offer on and take business from some one else,

No I suppose not

[Pope vader]

i just think it is a good idea, there seems to be this thing with window cleaning that if some one trys something new then  it wont work and is wrong,

[sgibsoncleaning]

i alway feel that special offers attract the wrong sort of people.
a genuine customer wants a window cleaner who does a good job at a   fair price
special offer customer bring in the money saving brigade. how to you tie them into a 12 month contract. they moan and cancel after one or two cleans when a doley undercuts you. what do you do then pursue them through small claims for breach of contract?
price fair and do a good job.
maybe prices from £6 on a leaflet get it noticed, ok so £6 may be a shop front but no one needs to know that so youre not fibbing
another quick thought on a mixed housing development you may get different houses next to each other, so a 4 bed 3 story is a tenner but so is the neighbours little 2 bed. they are going to feel cheated that they pay the same.

Yeah & I would advise anybody who proposes to clean £20 houses for a tenner that indeed it won't work & is wrong!

[bobby p]

any offers smack of desperation,same as when i get a domino pizza leaflet saying 2 for price of 1 ,i know they are struggling to take up the slack.     as said above you only want the ordinary folk who want a fair price and no airheads

[sgibsoncleaning]

i cant see anyone giving a stupid answer(makes a change) just quite sensible opinions.

I must say on this occasion I agree with sgibson, we normally disagree and richy has answered this himself by saying he doesn't like canvassing as it brings in the wasters etc, but this exactly what an offer on a leaflet will do
