im going down to london with one  of my brothers and dad to stay at my other brothers apartment in a few weeks.the price of everything from rent to food,fuel etc,etc is staggering!!its so much more expensive to live down there.i live in the north west and its way cheaper.

seriously though if your only pulling in just over £200 a week whatever part of the country you live in you must be slow and very underpriced IMO.i dont know how you  manage to make ends meet.i would of packed window cleaning in a long time ago if thats all i could earn in a week.


regards

[rycalshaw]

i may av been exaggerating a little but i did say much above £200,i do work alone and am nearer 50 than 40 but,as said in previous post my council hs customers think their paying the earth at £4 a pop so i could never earn the sort of money most of  you   lads seem  earn,i honestly thought it was an area thing,i may have to review my prices,thanks for your input. ps when you went to water fed did the custys take some convincing and is it a lot easier and quicker coz theres no doubt al be doing it until am 90 lol

[GB Window Cleaning]

Drive into the countryside and canvass bigger houses and charge more money!

the situation aint gonna change unless you change the situation!
3 words that inspire me the most from this forum is CCC
Canvass Clean Cull
Now get out there, canvass much better work and dump/ sell your rubbish.
There aint that much of a gap between north/ south, i know northern guys on here who charge roughly the same as me
Also get WFP ASAP, Its at least 50% quicker, if not more

eff that!!! id rather work in tesco mate!

like i said its hard work, but i can rattle 6-8 off an hour on my own so much better than tesco

[birdymiller]

Dont bother with wfp ive tried it and no way is it 50% faster than trad. Forget about all the i charge £25 for a 3 bed semi its XXXX. How long you been at it £200 a week is low

[barry mallett]

ask em to pay you in pigeons, ferrets and whippets . that way you can always feed the kids rabbit stew or pigeon pie , plus you  can always clothe em in rabbit skins in the winter , theres a guy on here from burnley a lot of his custys pay him in black pudding , and he does ok 

[Rayleigh Window Cleaning Services]

Its true that your money is on the low side,it can be for all kinds of reasons, but don't believe all what you here, some can earn the sort of money being thrashed round this forum,and some lots more, but to do it day in day out,not many can do that.
Try and set yourself a target for the week, then the next week try to better it by say10% and continue doing a bit of canvassing when your finished in an area.

Was talking to one of my custies today, most ignore me, Anyway, her dad is over to visit from Fife. Chatting away, as you do, and his wife says they have a windy back home who charges 3.30 a monthly clean. That's for a 3 bed detached!!!  She said that when they first had the windy, it was only 3 quid, but he put the price up last year!!

Full respect to the Jocks. They work in crap weather and must have hellish custies sometimes.

 buy and read this book
 "who moved my cheese" by dr spencer johnson
You will soon get on track and be earning more IMO
 

[Dave66]

buy a cheap wfp set up, 50% quicker and 100% safer

Think I might start saving up and get a van mounted system eventually. Think it would give me more scope to do different jobs. Only been doing this a few months so still sussing everything out.

can take you to meet a mate of mine whos got a fully fitted system by a well known company .

[DG Cleaning]

Might take you up on that mate if i eventually take the plunge and go full time. At the minute my main job is fairly well paid so its not something i'll give up in a hurry. I reckon i'll earn less cleaning windows so it would be.more of a lifestyle choice if I ever do go full time. Thanks anyway though.
