I let bills run for loads of customers.
A very very small percentage end up doing the dirty.
Just had a butchers-I'm down £144 in the last 2 years.
All but £24 I expected grief from but are easy jobs done while cleaning from the same 'park'
I'm not militant with paying.
I wonder what sort of turnover those who say they won't do a 2nd clean until the 1st has paid are on?
I'd wager the lower end of the scale.
Not a diss in any way.
But, from my experience, those with a higher turnover tend to have a higher rolling debt and with that, tend to write off more.
Do you want to know who does that.
We are one of them who does that. Myself as a business does not like to write any debt off, I have wrote debt of to companies who went bust but if I can claim any money from domestic I will apply via Small Claims Court money to be paid back and If you want pay back £2 a week that is fine!
Which it can be good practice to budget for writing debt off thou however if you start writing debt off from customer you will soon go around in there circles of the guy who clean for free and Trust me there are Circles who will use Certain companies who they can do DUMPS on which is where they take Service & not pay.
DUMPS used to be in Energy was nPower, Phone & Broadband was TalkTalk and they were main players however the more business start chasing debt the smaller the DUMP circles becomes.
Just image what you could do for with £200 a new peice kit? or 2days wages? Save for a new van or New WFP system.
