As a rule most of the jobs that we do are to big for most window cleaning companies, and most jobs that will come through the site will be to small for us, for example we are working on a tender at the moment for 32 shopping centre's across the uk, we would not want to be being asked to quote sites with single cleans under £300

On another note if a site like the one stuart has had come through and the contractor could not take on the work we would offer to assist or take on the job and give them a kick back on the works





I know see how you are working this...very shrewd of your company.
A bit like Eddie Stobart starting a scheme where self employed lorry drivers can pay him a monthly fee to get on a national website and pick up small jobs,but when a large contract is offered then he is there to help out.

Do you hold a database of all possible contracts offered to NWC members or are all enquiries passed immediatley to the members concerned without your knowledge?

Hello,

A record of all the enquiries that come through the contact sheets on each mini-site is kept. Mainly so we can see the amount of enquiries coming through the site as a whole and to have some idea of whether the idea works! These email enquiries go straight to the member in the relevant area automatically.

This record of email enquiries should help us demonstrate the amount of enquiries coming through the website when we are trying to promote the website to window cleaners. So those going to windex for example could get some idea as to the volume of enquiries.

As we are now starting to list direct telephone numbers to members on their mini-sites we can not keep track of the volume of enquiries coming through direct by phone to members.

Cheers,

Huw

Hugh can you confirm one way or another please whether Basingstoke is still available, as when you search it on your site it certainly appears to have gone, domestic as well as commercial by the same company as well as ALL surrounding areas (same company, commercial and domestic).

All looks like the same crowd to me

I have just recieved a PDF file of my order and ongoing monthly costs. It says that it is £30 per month but when you register your town it says it is only £18.00 per month.

When I do a search for window cleaners in my local area, nationwidewindowcleaners is on the first page, but towards the bottom.

My own and other websites are toward the top.

Is there any advantage to using nationwide that I'm missing?

Hi Tosh,

I only set that page up last Wednesday I think as an experiment to see how long it would take us to get the No.1 spot for Chepstow.

I haven't done any SEO on it yet. I suppose for companies like you who already have a website which is high up on the first page of Google it would give you two bites of the cherry when people are looking for the usual three quotes.

Last week in Cardiff we had a customer search "window cleaners cardiff". They ended up contacting us three times:

Once for - Seerclean
Once for - www.windowcleanercardiff.co.uk
And once through NWC Cardiff mini-site

All our sites are displayed on the 1st page results. We got the job.

It's only an additional marketing tool for those who are interested in this type of thing....that's all.

Cheers,

Huw

Hi Matt,

Your not the only one to have that error on the subscription charge. It should be £15 + VAT, don't worry I will sort it my end. There is a bug in the system.

Are you still doing that big domestic/manor house we got for you a couple of years ago?

Cheers,

Thanks for that Huw *phew*  

I did that place for about a year or so, then once they'd appointed an estate bod he took over the cleaning shame really, nice job, superb hourly rate.

Hi Stuart,

If we could get enquiries like this one for everyone I think we'd sell all our areas!

Hi all

Just to show the power of having a good local website, we have just one a 10k a quarter job through our website (www.jvprice.co.uk) in our local town of Watford, new customer that I had never even heard of, it turns out as a company they have a 600k + spend a year on window cleaning, so fingers crossed all goes well with the first job and we can have a look at some of that work for them as well.

Whats the update???

[S.A.J]

Hi everyone quick update 

We won the contract!!!!! 

Start in August and I cant wait to get stuck into it!!!!!!!

Stuart 

[S.A.J]

Bit more info now that the future boss of S.A.J Window Cleaners has stopped crying  

Got all of August to complete the job, all buildings apart from 1 will be wfp the other is going to cherry picked.

Also got the contract to clean all the main entrances of all the buildings every month

and there is promise of more work in another city for us

So defo worth the monthly fees for joining NWC  

We were not the cheapest quote either, but they were so impressed in what I had to say and what we can deliver they re jigged their budget just for me  

When we start I will take a couple of pics for you all  

Cheers
