Saturday is fine as it's a working day, but I reckon canvassing Friday, Sunday or Monday would be frowned down upon. Also if you're targeting houses you really want to do and are shooed away it'd be tricky to try at a later date.

Have a nice weekend off...the weather is gonna be poxy anyway.

Happy Easter.

Agree with Simon

Saturday is fine, in fact I have found it my most productive day for canvassing in the past.

As for the rest of the holiday.....

You're off for easter, last thing you want is some bloody canvasser knocking at your door. :D ;)
Cheers,
Neil

It's a holiday time mate. ???

That means you forget about work and spend time with your family and friends and enjoy yourself.

I'll be out tomorrow, (Saturday) because I've got a list of enquiries that came in during the week, and if I don't get out and do them, they'll "go cold".

If I leave it too long to follow up, I get embarrassed because it looks as though I've only called on them as an afterthought.

Ian

I try to get the customer to accept the first clean "blind" then if they are happy with the price we just carry on if not pay me for the first clean and call it a day.

So far everyone has accepted with no cancellations.
