I charge an extra £2 for 8 weekly

Some do, some don't.... Up to you
Only those who risk going too far will truly know how far they can actually go

I presume you either have so many customers now that you are moving them out to 2 monthly so you can take on more or customers are asking you can they change to 2 monthly.
Either way sell it to them that they will be saving money, for example
Customer currently pays £10 per month
Change to 2 monthly at £12 or £13
Customer saves £7 or £8 every 2 months or £42/£48 per year

And of course everytime you do the do the clean you are getting paid more for what is nominal extra work.

from 4 weeks to 8 weeks

bobplum i have been saying this for months that this was going to happen! most of my new customers are 8 weeklys i have said this on the dial-a-clean thread, i offer customers 4/8/12 weekly cleans, i have had a huge uptake on the 8 weekly adjust your price,

this is working well i have changed a few of my 4 weekly at there request to 8 weekly and charge a bit more strange really as some of them would moan if i tried to raise prices buy 50p yet because they are saving money and you earn more it works both ways

No clee, the trad joke is beginning to ware thin, and as you have no experience in either trad or wfp you are in no position to slag anything off

I can`t work clee out ???

He is constantly running tradders down & claiming ladders are banned. ::)

I reckon he is a tradder really, that has hit upon a niche market & trying to convince people to go WFP in reverse psychological kind of way. :)

i think 8 weeks might be come the norm, once custy realise that there windows are clean after 4 weeks,  i am thinking of putting every one on 6 week cycle, sort of in the middle,   i dont think the winter help where some custy waited 2-3 montsh to get there windows cleaned and realised that they stay clean,

i woudl rather put a custy on a 8 week cycle than lose them all together

i think doing 50 houses wfp in last week proves i have experience!
as for traditional one of my old mates in leicester was traditional,helped a few times but done downstairs!
To be honest i don't need to justify myself to you to prove im worthy of a comment or opinion! ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
