  I`m up North, do 4 weeks and charge a pittance. 
 I don`t have a problem with Asians though but don`t do many.
  It would be nice to earn more but I know my place

Most of my domestic customers are 4 weekly while some are 6 weekly and the odd one or two are 8 weekly because of the size and my charges.

As for any customers who say I will see you in the spring at winter time, well they will be waiting for longer than they thought, because I consider that as a cancelled job and I never go back to a cancelled job.

What, Never?

I love it when a cancelled customer phones me up in December looking for nice clean windows at christmas. Mostly I just giggle and hang up, occasionally I'll say "no probs dear, that'll be £100 + Vat"

I work my round on a 4 day week even though I clean 6 days a week, 10.30 to 14.00.

What this means is if I wanted I could cover my whole round in 4 days and this would only happen because of the weather of trade show visits.

Working hard or hardly working?

[formb]

what hours do you work in the winter? I'd imagine whatever you can.

All the daylight ones in December + January 8.30 - 17.00 the rest of the year.

I'm slowly moving mine from monthly to six weekly (though I do do longer frequencies for larger buildings).  I don't think my customers like high charges that come round too frequently; it's better to charge well, do a good job and provide a friendly service, and be less frequent in my opinion.

Behave Griff  :

Oh, I'm 6 weekly for Brit custies, ze Gurmans are all appointment only.

Generally every four weeks but have moved to every three weeks through the summer.

Would love to get to a stage where I have the same work as this but every four weeks, it is just enough for both me and my customers.

I am 'Northern' and can't see the problem in people wanting their windows cleaned every two weeks, I choose not to as most of my round is spread so would be uneconomical - thats why my customers don't mind me coming round every three weeks.

Its my business and I choose the frequency - only on certain jobs will I justify 6 or 8 weekly. If they don't like it I pass the job on but can safely say this is very rare.

What? 
  The pro`s need the likes of me so that they can feel superior.
 Or are they insecure about their own prices? They don`t like their customers hearing how little us idiots charge.

 

[prestige cleaners]

8 weeks is best, you can charge twice as much so earn more, just need extra custies to fill in the gaps though
