Owing to time constraints, the most I can physically fit in is 2-3 a day. I don't like to do more than 2 ovens a day though, I'm usually ready for a pint by the time I've finished the second one.... ;D

If time allowed though, I'd be happy doing 3-6 jobs a day....

Most I've ever done was 3x3 bed houses in one day, when I first started up with the Extracta Exel and the Scrubba Deluxe... I was absolutely spent.... ;D

Derek ;D ;D

I did one very big job (stop it!) today, suite & carpets all through, then a quote and then a small lounge & hall.

Other days I'll have loads of bits n bobs that could mean 6 calls in total, but I try to avoid those sorts of days by offering deals on extra work so they are an exception.  I hate driving around and setting up/packing away lots of times in a day.

So to answer the question, probably average 2.3 jobs a day :)

My average this month is 5/6 jobs per week. I am flat out but quite a few jobs are 2,3 or even 4 days.

you don't need an ideal world you just need to book them that way,

unless they can do no other time  i won't let a customer book a single room for 8am.

 i tend to book all big jobs for a morning I just  just say to the customer " the next space we can book this job is 8am next Wednesday" if i single room needs cleaning i say "we have the last appointment of the day  next week on tues & friday"

i just offer appointment times that fit into this scheduling procedure

Depends on size of job but anything from 2 to 5 a day.

7 jobs in one day has been my record. Done that a few times. Thats a very long day though.

Some times none then it goes manic, but more or less working every day, don’t need to covert. Cheap a chips with a price tag of caviar ;)

Gone are the 7 in a day, 5 can be too many but like you say depends on what the job is, if I'm doing a call for a retailer (spot and stain work) I can get through quite alot my average job price has gone up quite alot this year so I don't need to do 7 a day I'd be rich if I did!
