Hmmmmm ...... I pray I don't get back into the management side of things.... but you maybe right as it develops & we get really into it.
I got sick of all the H&S crap, and people pretending to be injured to make a claim..... don't have to worry about that at the mo. Also worrying about their attendance/performance/conduct etc etc blah blah.......
On one of the posts earlier someone mentioned that it's a sure way to heart attack land.... they are right as the stress was there when I did it... don't get it now...

Mobile number IMO a landline as well is alot better.

Email address is a free one and does not look professional.

There is no website address on there.

I would take off about the waterfed pole as you may put off people that have had them cleaned like this before and the person doing it did not knwo how to do it correctly.

with the right design of the website a few things in the source code that made forget, and no I dont pay, nor would I.

then again I have been doing it since the internet took over in the late 90's so I have no need to pay.

Thanks for all the ideas guys  The call divert is a good idea, might get onto BT about it.

As for the name, that'll probably stay the same  Now I'm WFP, its kind of an ironic thing LOL. It makes people smile, and it sticks in their mind, which is always a good thing. I may shorten it soon, not sure, TSK Cleaning Services or something like that.

How much business do you guys find a website brings in? Is it worth the cost?

I do well from my website and I am not just saying that because I design them I am being totally honest. I dont get all my new work from them but do pick up quality jobs, 2 jobs pays for a website, some people pay for a box in yellow pages say £500 a year and dont have a website, now that baffles me little box or full website for people to read even better smaller box with a website address on. Websites are a cheap form of advertising that is online 24 hours a day 365 days a year.

What about sheepcleaning that would be a great marketing ploy.
