I was quite tempted a couple or years ago. thats not seriously tempted you understand but it did cross my mind.
Before I discovered this forum I used to spend a lot of time looking at the American window cleaning web sites.

IWCA is probably the best. They sell some interesting looking books as well. Most people don't have window cleaners in America. This is partly to do with the fact that a lot more houses are singe storey. So window cleaning over there is almost all commercial and they are a lot more geared up. They had WFPs years ago for example.

went over last year to the Hilton in Disney World, Florida for last years and it was amazing! The convention goes on for about 5 days and is massive as you would imagine being in the U.S.  The beauty of it is that you can take your family with you and claim it all on the tax man!! Worth it if you can justify the cost.

I attend a cleaning show in Las Vegas every October, it last 3 days and has lots of seminars.

I take My wife and son and put it all through the bussiness, we stay for 10 days. You got to give it to the Americans they know how to put on a good show.

4 of us are attending the ISSA cleaning show in amsterdam in May.
