New window cleaner basing business off bashing wfp

WCF

Help Support WCF:

RSI occurs in all trades including trad and wfp window cleaning. The most common long term effects of trad window cleaners is knackered knee joints, back, shoulder, wrist and hand issues all down to repetitive strain on the body.
Friend of mine works on a PC all day, his wrist is completely shagged and he has problems with his fingers as well.

 
Exactaly, i am not sure how you would tackle this though. When i was cleaning i often had a good old chat to both wfp and traditional cleaners. One day it even happened that in a row there was me a trad next door and another wfp next door to him. We all got along, like you say though using that has his marketing campaign is not helpful at all. I really dont know how you can tackle it really.
there is only 1 way to tackel this guy /emoticons/wink.png:cool: /emoticons/biggrin.png u put him out of action an do it good o did i say that out loud:rofl:

 
I read most of it and was going to respond with this but never had the chance as the advert was taken down.
"Matthew Softley you certainly know how to wind fellow professional window cleaners up and mislead people with the total tosh on your website and comments here too"
he probley got a lot of stick as there is lots of fb groups if he posted it on any of the main ones like (wc uk) (waggers world)(wc world wide) ect he would have bin torn apart an spat out posting that:D

 
Wagga is a prime example of the hundreds of experienced trad window cleaners that also use wfp now.

 
Trad ladder work is **** compared to wfp work. The only thing you get is a very tight bum hole when the ladder starts to slip or if you are very unlucky follow through. Then follows the aerobics in slow motion trying to land on your feet at the bottom. I should know I've been there /emoticons/biggrin.png
In Stitches!!!

 
Horses for courses mate

I prefer trad and it works for me but am also sorting a home made trolley when i get back to make the dangerous jobs easier

If you are happy and competent in your method then crack on and get the pennies in

I'm only a lowly tradder but it has paid for me to be talking to you guys from turkey

 
Did you not know ladders are banned /emoticons/biggrin.png

Have a great break bud :thumbsup:

 
All being said when you try the dark side the next thing you will be wanting is a van mount and do all suitable houses with a wfp instead of just the hard to reach stuff....trust me I know /emoticons/biggrin.png

He's right /emoticons/wink.png

 
Most that invest in wfp be it a backpack or trolley end up with a van mount because of the huge increase in earnings potential this method brings.

Imagine doing a conny roof trad? :confused: A conny roof done WFP can earn you good money in little time, as it's the tools that are making the job so easy /emoticons/smile.png

 
Like my trad. Always have. Will stay with it until my legs tell me to stop climbing my ladder.

On the original post I've also read many wfp people (not on here) doing just what that blokes doing.

Things like no more adders digging in yer grass. Ladders scraping your PVC ect so although over the top a bit he's just doing what he can to promote his business. Ignore it & just get on. If you do a goo job they will stick with you.

Waiting for you all to slate me now :devil::cry::addict::iaminnocent:

 
i do luv a bit of trad but wfp is my main tool of choice as its safer quicker an does a beta job 99.9 percent of the time when used proply an also windows stay cleaner for longer having said that i clean a big buss shelter it take 13 minits trad an it take 13 minits wfp lol but its a hell of a lot easer wfp its the set up time that out ways the time so trad can b quicker on small houses but on big ones there is no contest

 
Ha ha. Only because I don't think once you've usd a wfp you will want a van mount. I've used it for 2 years & have never even thought of getting one. I'm more worried I gave the daddy a dislike to (smurf). I just love trad.

 
Posh if your happy doing it your way then there is nothing wrong with that at all. :thumbsup:
