Bar buying a few rounds, i have always used a canvassing company with no problems what so ever. They do regular work for me each month, but not as often i as like as they are so busy, but i keep adding to my rounds most months which is good. I have tried Gumtree for canvassers but had no luck, never the right calibre of person to represent my business, and to me thats the most important thing, well along with the pricing. I have spoken with a couple of guys that canvass for Zenith windows and the gas companies, had a few interested, exchanged telephone numbers ect, organised a few nights out to show them how to do it, but when it came down to doing the do, it never happened.
