Are These Prices For Real?

Wow, 10 houses a day for £600! 30 a day, £1800! Think you'd struggle to find people wanting to pay that, although some people will prob pay up.

I know companies in Sheffield who charge £48 an hr for home cleaning (slightly different I know) but they get away with it some how.

We might have 10 times the customers as they do, but they only need to do a quarter of the jobs that we do and they turn over the same.

It's all just a numbers game.

At the end of the day I always just think, charge what ever your happy with and don't worry about others.

 
Flip me sideways and back again... Are these prices for real... How on earth do they get away with charging that kind of price' date=' yes it's London, but still what a joke. You could set up a business and half that price and sweep the market... http://www.fastklean.co.uk/window-cleaning-offer.php#windowcleaninglondon
Don’t know if those particular figures from that firm are real; but the prices are.

Assumptions about pricing are a common mistake that will probably cost just as much as the window cleaner turns over. If you’re a sole trader, do you need to ‘wipe the floor’? You only have so many hours you can work; you might as well fill that time with the best prices.

Profit margin is more important than turnover.
