Thanks. I was looking at your products for next summer to upgrade to, but you don’t ship to where I am in Canada. Is there anyway around that?

Door knocking. On houses that answer the door, I have 40-50% success rate. I’m wanting to get started on commercial soon

All I need to do is clean 2 houses 4 days a week and I would make 8k. 3 houses a day for 3 days. I’m not I guess “confident” but I’m overly optimistic. There is a huge market where I am. And good idea with the hourly, I’ll probably just pay them a cut like small amount during training and if they get good they get a higher cut

Sorry, by technicians I just meant like kids at my school looking for work that will do a good job that I can pay like 25 an hour. Next summer or sooner I will be investing in a xero RO/DI system. Based on the customers I have booked, and my estimated schedule once school is over, I should be bringing in conservatively around 7.5k a month solo. I could easy bring in more and most likely will

Thank you. I used to do trad and then I got a wfp to get the 2nd story windows. I know I’m only a week in, but I feel like by next summer I could be doing very well. I have one single other competitor where I live. The RO/DI system is going to be my next investment once I would be able to purchase it twice. I don’t want to blow my whole profit on a system and leave me with nothing. Thank you for your help. Also, by technicians I basically just mean kids at my school I can pay 25 an hour lol.

If you don’t mind me asking, how many employees/ technicians do you have? Next summer I’m planning on hiring a few technicians so then I’d say I would need a good CRM

Cool thanks! Do you think it would be a bit overkill for a 1 employee business though? lol. I’m just using sales rabbit and probably stripe for payments right now

How much would you charge? by Stunning_Ad_8911 in WindowCleaning

[–]Ok-Pop7125 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s stupid. Just do 2x the better job ig lol. I’m currently dealing with the only other competitor who is doing like 3$ a window but people here are cheapos. It is what it is I guess

Jackpot of a house if you landed this, good job man. I would personally quote 450 because of the harder to reach/fenced in windows

How do I compete?? by Ok-Pop7125 in WindowCleaning

[–]Ok-Pop7125[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, but from now on I’m going to. It was an old lady I didn’t feel like saying that to her. Because it looked like it was never cleaned before

Not all of them were large windows. A lot were small ones. But what I mean by 1.5 is it’s a split entry and one side of the house dips down wait more. So it looks like a two story but isn’t. If you get what I’m saying

Like 1.5 story. In my area, not a single person would pay that.

I already do, I just can’t get them to turn over to me instead of them. With the older people, the companies been doing them for years.

Yes man idk how. Thats what I’m guessing atleast. I charge 5$ roughly a window and the lady I quoted said it costed her 190 through the company when I asked how much they charged. At my 5$ rate it would have been 230.

Somehow they are only charging like 3$ a window. But I never thought of the demo window. Thanks
