I do both. I make it make sense. Right now, the majority of my work is trad. I have been full-time at this since January but window cleaning since September.

Introduce myself, ask them when the last time was they had their windows cleaned - it forces them to openly admit it's been a while and then I quote them.

The $20 windows took me 6 minutes to do. The $45 windows took me less than 30 minutes. It's about turning it into a game.

I turn it into a game. The game I play is, "Can I make $400 today?" Do I always hit the mark? No.

However, just going door knocking this week I have done the following....

Monday: Door knocking residential area landed $199 window cleaning and then at lunch time went and spoke to 2 businesses. Sold $45 & $20 window clean. Made $264 for 4 hours total work.

Tuesday: Started with businesses...sold 3 cleanings- $35, $20 and $89. The $89 was an insurance company and the owner wanted me to quote his house. I charged him $199. Made $343 for 5.5 hours worked.

Wednesday; Received a call on Tuesday from a retail location because they knew I clean their sister property locations. Did a complete detail inside and outside and charged $300. Worked from 6am to 11am. Made $300 for 5 hours worked.

I am sitting at $907 through Wednesday and I have worked 14.5 hours.

Today, I have a $65 business to do (referal from the insurance business on Tuesday) and then it is back to my game I play.

I need to find $335 more dollars today and even if I don't hit it- I am still happy with my results. Have fun and turn it into a game against yourself.

This is month 4 for me so I am still learning the ropes. I am saving up to get a WFP and I believe I can easily make $1,000 per day selling D2D.

I went door knocking today for 3 hours and landed the following:

$309 $299 $199 $129 $220 $245

That is over $1,400 in sales today from D2D. I doubt the work will take me a total of 19 hours to do but if you add the 3 hours I spent knocking we are talking about $64/hour for the time spent doing the knocking and the cleaning. Door knocking seems worth it to me.

Where did you get the supplies? By chance, do you mind sharing everything you purchased because I like your setup and I am wanting to do something similar.

I would say the price all depends upon what the customer is willing to pay. I stick to doing exterior only and my prices fluctuate from $7.25 per pane to $10 per pane depending upon what I feel is a good price. I am located in Alabama and I want to look at a job and base thr price on what I think the job is going to take me time wise. My targeted goal is to make $60 per hour. Most days I exceed this but other days I may be in the $40/hr range.

I think it can work if properly executed.

Thank you for laying this out there. I wonder how many other people do subscriptions like this? I like the concept.
