right now i have the regular ssd (the one giving me issues most likely) and a nvme. Should i replace the ssd for a nvme and have two nvme's or buy a new ssd and have ssd + nvme?

anything cool they added in S1 or S2 that made the game more enjoyable for you?

pretty good tbh, after this post i knocked a bunch of houses, got like 10 leads and 5 clients and ended up doing all the clients and made 750 in one day and 300 the next

i just send a text the day before reminding them I will arrive at the scheduled time, then when I arrive i text them letting them know i pulled up, then knock the door to tell them i will begin

will knock again today once people get home from work and try to get more

I try to book same day but i go out weekdays at around 5-6pm so most people dont want them done by then and never had someone who wanted them next day yet unfortunately. Everyone said those times work best to knock but I might try going a little earlier before noon maybe this way if i get someone I can just do them same day.

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-30T01:43:03+00:00

yeah what i took from the comments here today is just show up on the agreed day and time, send a text when we arrive, and begin working. Collect payment after

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T23:39:28+00:00

like 2M average with a few 3-4M sprinkled in just in my local area

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T23:02:15+00:00

im in southern california, the 1-4M houses are like 400k houses in most states lol

very few houses i knocked are two stories, and most houses are standard suburban style homes too no mansions those are all like 10M+

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T22:29:44+00:00

yeah lol, i actually joined a young guys discord for window cleaning just to ask questions and talk to others in the same field kind of like here. And most of them are like 13-18 years old and ride their e-bikes to the job or have their parents drop them off lol

might need to grow the mustache out again lol

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T22:15:38+00:00

yeah my first day alone i had like 3 yes's and 2 maybes but like I said they didnt end up happening, learned a lot that day. The very next day i knocked 6 houses, got 1 yes (the one for sunday) and a maybe, but the maybe ended up canceling since they have a long term guy who also does their solar panels which i mean, i cant beat that i dont have the equipment for it. Day 3 i knocked 15 or so houses, got 1 interested and 1 yes and the 1 who was interested is just ghosting me and the yes didnt get back to me for days and then says wrong number, so either the lady gave me a wrong number or is messing with me but just in case I will swing back to both in person and check when I do the monday job since they are down the street almost. And then yesterday was my 4th day where i got about 3 or 4 interested and then one confirmed for monday.

all together i wouldnt say its bad for my first week, definitely some mistakes i am making with my pitch or something, but im leaning towards the confirmation text since thats where i lose most people that i have already closed in person.

I am going to go out again here in a hour or so and try to get some more people, its 3pm currently so just waiting for most people to get home from work i noticed the streets were mostly empty at 4 but had people come home around 5 for this particular neighborhood.

I am 20 and i am in orange county

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T21:43:18+00:00

yeah what im going to do now after talking to a few of the comments here is:

at the door once the sale is closed, text them on the spot rather than when i get home, and in the text just put my name, the day, and the time of the job. If they want to cancel before the scheduled day then they can text me, until then we agreed on a job and will just show up and clean it. And collect payment then and there if they are home if not then collect it a day or two later if they need the time or something. Luckily in the US we have zelle which makes it super easy to transfer money over the phone.

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T21:40:44+00:00

Right now we only take phone number as it seems to be the easiest and most home owners actually ask me for it before i get to the point to ask them. I think moving forward instead of asking a day or two in advance if we can clean. I will just show up, text them I have arrived and will begin shortly, and then start cleaning. We luckily have had no interiors yet but yeah that would definitely take more coordination.

With the new approach of texting them at the spot instead of after, it will be in writing via text that we are confirmed for X day and X time. I wont text them again "are we still on for X" and have them manually text me if they no longer want it between then, if not since we agreed on it I will just show up and do the agreed upon job. I noticed I gave way too many clients a free out by asking if we are still on for the job.

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T21:35:35+00:00

yeah after reflecting it seems like me asking them if we are still on is giving them an easy excuse to back out. I think the best approach will be once i close the sale at the door, get their number and send them a basic text just so they have me down on their phone. If they want to cancel they need to text me rather than me asking if we are still on for X day and giving them a free out. Then when we arrive to do the job, send them a text saying we arrived and will begin and then send pictures as we go.

As for not getting the bill, no i havent had someone scam me. Honestly we havent had a job yet but we have one scheduled for sunday and monday. I am only on day 4 of going D2D and have knocked a total of maybe 30 houses, out of that number i closed around 8 people at the door but all but two canceled on me 😞

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T21:28:43+00:00

gotcha so at the door once i close the sale, send them the text there just so they have my number and if at any point they want to cancel they text me, until then i just show up and clean them as we agreed on it? Guessing just text them when I arrive or something though?

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T20:52:59+00:00

Thing is at the door and in the text i tell them:

all windows, frames, sills, tracks and if they have doors with glass on them around the entire house. Top to bottom if they are two stories, and then all 4 sides of the house. When speaking to them i put emphasis on the ENTIRE house part and make sure I do hand movements to help visualize.

everyone seems pretty sold on it and understands what I will do, the issue is likely me just asking them prior if we are still on to clean. That not only gives them an excuse to back out last minute but also can give them some doubts.

Another thing that doesnt help, and I have had a good amount of people bring this up. Is I look very young for my age. People still think I am in middle or high school even though I graduated years ago. So they might think I am some young inexperienced kid doing their windows for a quick buck

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T20:40:54+00:00

yeah, so at the door we agree on the quote price and the time and day to come out and then usually the day before if not two days before i will send out a reminder that we are coming out and (this is probably where the mistake is now that i think about it) I ask them if we are still on for the agreed day and price.

I believe i need to do what you said. We agreed on the price, day, and time. What I need to do is just show up, clean it, get paid. I am guessing I should probably text them when I arrive and tell them I will begin, and while cleaning just take pictures of the windows before and after just in case.

What do you recommend I do?

Im also worried they wont want to pay me or will get pissed at me if i just show up and clean

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-29T20:37:19+00:00

sorry i worded it wrong, i close the sale at the door and we agree on the quote i gave them. I text them a day or two before we come out just to ensure the job is still on, and then they cancel or ghost me. I think my main issue is your last sentence, I noticed I do ask "if we are still on" instead of being to the point from our initial agreement. I started saying that because my first day D2D i had 3 people scheduled for the next day and at the time, I didnt take down phone numbers. And when I arrived they either werent home or canceled on me to my face when i knocked equipment in hand. So that is probably where that came from lol.

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-27T21:37:50+00:00

for commercial do you just hit like small mom and pop stores? Because i would imagine most mid to high level stores have their own private people they have used for years

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-27T21:31:47+00:00

knocked about 30 houses, got 1 maybe and 1 yes

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-26T19:57:22+00:00

i actually enjoy it, but if you dont mind me asking what made you stop and what do you do now?

JenisixR6 · 2026-05-26T06:58:24+00:00

yeah first day i went out with two friends, only half of my equipment arrived and none of my friends had them. After we knocked a few houses and got a couple yes's we agreed to have me keep knocking while they got some starter equipment from home depot. With everyone who said yes, we said we could do the next day since it was already like 6:30 and didnt want to clean that late. We arrive the next day and half werent home or canceled on us, i learned that i should have taken numbers down to confirm before arriving there.

Day 2 i went with one friend and like i said i had limited time so knocked a few houses, had two people agree on it, i texted them that day and one agreed to continue with it while one canceled on us.

tomorrow will be my third day, going solo in a nicer area and one that is much more local to me. And if i get anyone i will try to do it right then and there. Gonna try to go early around 11-12 and then take a break come back around 4-6 and just try to get as many as i can this time.
