    You have £X to start up and build a round from scratch tomorrow. How do you do it?

I've just made it through my 12th week and I do...

    Wow @wgwindows thank you for the really great and encouraging post and I'm sorry to hear about your nan. I'm glad window cleaning has helped and it sounds like your business is really starting to progress and the time saved travelling for water I imagine is going to help massively. Reading posts...

    Thanks for the replies I've just read through them all and they have given me something to think about, @cleaniacs reply in particular was very interesting to read.  I'm not afraid of hard work (I've always had hard jobs and a lot of them being long hours as well) and I'm not put off by bad...
