Ive done all kinds of jobs, my previous employ was an electrical engineer working on behalf of british gas installing electric meters  for 6 years. Im also qualified nvq level 2 plumbing.

I would never go back, i like the freedom too much.

I think the best part is the repeat buisness for sure!

There seems to be some intelligent people on this forum, what background have you come from?

[Shrek]

I was a bouncer

[nathankaye]

Qualified in area of business n finance in addition with nvq's in the same sector. Told over qualified for some jobs and so settled into sales for ten years in different sales environments, funny enough spelling was never an issue then 
Left sales to become self employed in cleaning windows, something i did to support whilst in college. Very similar, enjoyed the freedom of being your own boss and only yourself to blame. But same aspect i suppose as sales, an interest in people and lets face it, in this game you meet people from all sorts of backgrounds.  Helps me not to really judge people, or it did do

What have you found most helpful to window cleaning services from your background?

I have brought an air of professionalism from the british gas training with me, i think it realy helps with the customer"experience".

Shhh. Don't tell Ross.

I'm a fully qualified rocket scientist but only because I found brain surgery to be lacking in intellectual challenge.

Needless to say window cleaning  has been the best move I've ever made

Sales n PR

[paul alan]

Yeah was completely uneducated all my life, blagged my way into engineering.

Knew sweet fa about electrics and didnt even have a driving license when applying for british gas, didnt even know how to clean windows when begining and terrified of heights. Still am to this day, at 6 3" im scared to look down.

Suppose drive counts for more than education, school of hard knocks will teach a man so much more!

[paul alan]

Sales is a big one, selling yourself more than your service i believe.

International cocaine and arms dealer but then came across this forum and read what everyone makes cleaning windows, especially one guy who was always going away staying in 5 star hotels. So started building a round and never looked back.
