When first started out I was 4 weekly but that went to monthly as round grew and wasnt able to get thru them all on time.

Now got a part time helper and seem to only a day or 2 behind so thinking about going back to 4 weekly.

Anyone else done this ... I rekon most customers dont even know when there due ?

[Steve Sed]

I seriously doubt anyone would notice.

[Ian101]

hmmmm thats my thinking too.

Bimonthly being moved to 7 weekly as well.

I do 2 weekly and 4 weekly and in the past have done monthly. I've found that no matter what frequency you have you always have spare days in the summer. Whether its working more hours or better weather you will be quicker, but you may struggle in winter months.

I have 5 days a week of work and we were all done yesterday. I could fill up 2 days easily but when the dark nights are here I will be struggling. What I'm doing instead is price increases and canvassing better priced work. Always schedule your round within the constraints of winter

Best of luck

im mainly calendar monthly but occasionally get round 4 weekly.the only problem you might get is if you clean at the start of the month and turn up in the same month at the end.

im roughly monthly for most run of the mill work with a growing 2 monthly customer base at higher prices.

I went from monthly to 4 weekly.

I much prefer having a 20 day working cycle, it just makes more sense to me.

Not a single customer of mine noticed or mentioned the change.

4 weekly = 1 extra months pay come the end of the year

every calender month = 12 lots of money

every 4 weeks = 13 lots of money

 so if you are taking e.g 500 p/wk    being every 4 weeks give you and extra 2k per year..

( you'll see i aint doing window cleaning if you check me out  ... but seriously looking at adding to the portfolio just need to explore i few more things)..

Good honest craic on the window cleaning section of this site BTW

I have been cleaning stuff I did at the start of march this week, only a handful noticed and a simple it is a 5 week month explanation assure them you aren't at it

[Jackal]

hmmmm thats my thinking too.

Bimonthly being moved to 7 weekly as well.

why would you want to move bi monthly to 7 weeks if your going to be 4 weekly you'l be in the wrong place on your round for the bi monthlys,keep it 4 and 8 wkly  simples, im 5 and 10wkly tho gives me chance to catch up a couple of days if im behind and custy shouldnt notice as most think im monthly

[Gav Camm lammy 283]

4wkly for me

[Dave.]

I'm mainly 4 weekly & 8 weekly but have a fair few 2 weekly, 6 weekly, 10 weekly, 12 weekly and once a term for some schools.

The 4 weekly are almost set in stone, and I fit the others in around them - plus a bit of pressure washing, gutter, fascia & soffit cleaning and gutter clearing as and when

Would be a nightmare without George!

[gr cleaning solutions]

4 weekly for me with a few 2 weekly as well

[sf]

started 4 weekly now every 26 days. 14 cleans a year instead of 13 =+£££££££s easiest pay rise i ever got

[brynley]

some of my commercial work is done to the day, others are up to 2 weeks late, my domestic cleans are very rarely done on time, i have loads of work, i always say , ie 4-6weeks  ish, my customers are happy with that, they know i am reliable and do a good job.

[Frankybadboy]

[Jackal]

do windows need cleaning every 4wks if your wfp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i get quite a few thinking its only been 2-3 weeks even tho im 5 wks,wouldnt like doing 4wkly feels to soon, 5 wks comes round fast enough i think 6wks is perfect but iv got 10 wklys so not changing them to longer a frequency
