Need to stop saying yes
« on: April 15, 2009, 08:06:00 am »
I keep getting more and more work everyday, need to chill out fo a bit as im falling behind at mo, could do with condensing round to be honest, i havent canvassed, well bar 5 years ago when i started, but the rest has come from people calling me, which has resulted in a very big round but lots of travelling, ive just had 5000 flyers done and am going to condense it

What would you sugget to do with the work which is too far for me? Well what would you do?

Find someone in that area and sell on what you dont want
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

Failing that if there is a member of this forum who is starting out or not so full..perhaps you could at least pass a few nibbles along as a act of kindness.

Have a great week

Dave.

you could leaflet the main roads (often big houses/nice villages) which you travel along to get to those outlying houses.

only worth doing if the outlying houses are good to start with.

also, if you have lots of work and don't want to employ, just everything expensive!
