Don't forget you'll need 2-3 times more water per day , I don't mind doing 2-3 first cleans a day or a week but I wouldn't want to do it all day long!! 😓

if not more.....and battery!

don't forget as you've  never cleaned these houses before you don't what problems your going to encounter.

Err on the side of caution, don't waste money or custom.

these are wps  t&c    they got ripped off by a lad from burnley who got them to build a round up my way which they did pretty easily, 2 days i think but then had to come up and do the first clean themselves,   over  £700 worth which they did in under 2 days, i met them cos they needed a pure top up , yan seems dead genuine i might use him when my son goes on his own.  the work is still for sale i think

its amazing how the stick rates are so good ,fantastic stuff it's also amazing how they have time to fit you in with those stick rates I'm  supprised anyone has let them go looks like we're onto a winner Rodney!!!
Consider £500 max as a trail tho £1,000 is £3,000 worth of exposure gives you a chance to really enjoy what's about to happen sure it'll be very good just saying ..

Well, nearly 6 months later,  think I’m down maybe 12 jobs out of 50 or so. However, I was given a £500 fsg etc. And a few others as result of cleaning the work. Walk ups etc.
I’m not going to chase up the cancellations as simply not worth the hassle.
Maybe we’ll use them again, if the price was better.......

You are always better canvassing yourself, unless you’re a hideous monster.

Losing that amount is what I'd expect from buying a round as well, it's one of these bitter pills you need to swallow. Just about to sign up for it.

Having used various canvassers quite a few times, the conclusion I've drawn is its all a bit overpriced at 3x.

Expect to lose half to 2 thirds over the first years. Still it's a long term investment.

Best bet is to employ someone on a part time basis or do it yourself of course.

I went canvassing myself the other day and got none! Lost my touch, not as desperate as I was at the start.

Good afternoon all

WOW amazing read all that. Everyone has their opinion on canvassing so I'm not disagreeing with any comment on here.
Hi I'm the director at WPS GENERATION
First question I will answer is the pyramid marketing one.
WE ARE NOT INVOLVED WITH THEM. They are x employees attempting to replicate our success.

We are window cleaners and have 4 vans on the road ourselves. This is what makes us different to the rest, we know all the pit falls with new customers and understand the pain it is. Other canvasser’s just don’t know this valued information. All my staff (10 in total) are fully trained in WFP & Trad work. They are all trained how to quote and how to provide all the vital info they need to pass to the customer.

Our guarantee is to cover your investment. We are always happy to replace. I have a dedicated team just for replacements. I call them the mop up crew lol

We can’t control customers but we can protect you so we do

Kind Regards

Yan Whittaker

It's a big shame Paul Dale does not do much if this anymore. He was great.


He always used to book a bit extra on for free to cover any drop outs.  Plus guaranteed them.   Only charged 2 x monthly rate.

Two years later I still have 75% of my work from it.

Yes Paul was great.

I did have a few drop outs with him but he only charged 2x and refunded me for drop outs.

Still got some great customers he got me.

So....if Iv understood this correctly, regarding the 3 clean guarantee-  if a £10 job gets cleaned once  and then cancels - you replace it with a job that is a two thirds of the value?
How do you replace a £10 job with part of a job ? Do you replace it with a £6 job ?
Or if they cancel after 2 cleans , then it gets replaced with a £3 job?
