Why should it matter if you leaflet?  We leaflet every week, we don't know if there are any other window cleaners where we drop them, but there usually are.
Leaflet (and knock) wherever and whenever you want.

around where i am tho,u get window cleaners ringin u up and threatenin you if u leaflet on they work,its a 'my patch,and no-one else is allowed to go on it' area lol had this prob earlier this year,first time id ever tried canvassin and i had a few window cleaners ringin up and threatenin me and my home,it childish and completely unprofessional but that how it is unfortunatly around here but i dont care now,im jus gunna go for it,they give me trouble i'll give it back twice as hard lol

if they call you and threaten you then just explain to them in a polite manner that you have a business to run and bills to pay, explain that they should know the score because with the recent visits that yourself and others (lie about this bit) have had off the tax man and the benifits man, that you need to keep earning and keep all your books up to date. You dont mean to take 'their so called customers' but that the customers approached you to do theirs.

The mention of the tax man visiting wc's as they work may put him on a back foot as he probably wont be legit

[daz1977]

haha nah im only gunna canvass on this street coz the wc ant turned up in about 5 months,so i think that fair enuff,if your a good wc then they no need and no point in canvassin on they work,coz if ur good ur not gunna loose any custies,so i jus try n canvass on areas where it either a bad window cleaner or a area that dunt have a window cleaner  nowt wrong wid that imo

[Martin ccs]

is rite

the whole "my patch" thing is bloody sad! there is plenty of work to around generally.

i think its only the smaller dodgy wcs that get really pd off when other wc drop flyers through.

even if several cheaper wcs knocked my customers i wouldnt lose many, if any!

just go for it! when you pick up one or two the rest of his customers will ask you to do theirs, if he kicks off just say well they asked me to do them!

I always canvas, not drop leaflets, if I know an area/patch has been dropped by a window cleaner.  My record was seven houses that said 'yes', one-after-the-other.

Leaflets may not work.

[1wayno]

i jus do a leaflet drop,then after xmas i'll go back and knock on to see what they think. gives em time to decide whether they want a wc and discuss it with they partners n that, so when u knock they say yes or no,quick n easy,and with leaflet they got a contact num and know who you are straight away
