I think you are right. 4 weekly seems like you are there every 2 mins

In hindsight I would have started out with 6 and 12 I think .

I don't think 12 is a good idea man. There's a guy round here thats been going about 6 years and he still ain't full because he offers 6 and 12, the bulk of people go for the longest possible... He and a few other windies on FB were fighting over a customer who needed a ''window cleaner who is available this week''.... One of my customers tagged me in it, it was a great feeling to be able to say - full this week sorry. If offering 6 and 12 left me fighting for one off (possible end of tenancy cleans) in the middle of peak season then I'm glad I do 4/6/8. Different area though so chances are a different clientele etc.

Always been 6 weekly agree with Adam if you go monthly it does feel like you’re there every 2 minutes and you get a lot of drop outs. + it leaves little space for organizing ad ons or your own holidays if you have the luxury

I think ultimately just go for what you want.

Yeah I agree with the 6 week bit, its the offer of 12 weeks that causes an issue for me... 6 weeks is about right. At 4 weeks they are still clean except for bird strikes, at six weeks they have started to get dirty, by 8 weeks they are dirty again.

Mine often turn in to 7 or sometimes 8 weeks [emoji85] i like to make sure i’m always slightly behind so sometimes i bang an add on in and have a round running late. That way you “should” never have a drought or day with no income. Can get a bit complicated double booking days though if you haven’t got a good memory you can land yourself up the creek [emoji102]

What's wrong with a Calendar Month? 12 times a year.

All my customers seem happy with that and its easy to

fit in. keep it simple Sam. (kiss for short)

Yeh forget 12.

Should have just done 6 only. 

I do 4 and 8, 4 Seems  too short and 8 weekly s just throw the round out everyone they pop up. 

I have considered moving mine to all 6 weekly, but I don't think a lot of my 8s would be that impressed and I have a lot of them.

I offer 4 & 8 books are easier to fill but yes some annoying jobs / customers (that aren’t badly priced) on my 4 week round seem to come round too fast, if it wasn’t well priced work they wouldn’t be on my list

Anyone do 52 weekly?

 

[Nudel]

Anyone do 52 weekly?

Yes, I do. ? I just counted and I have at least 6 work orders on a yearly basis. Mostly insides for otherwise more regular customers, but also a couple of schools.

 

[Part Timer]

Anyone do 52 weekly?

I have one annual residential clean, and 2 x 6 monthly residential cleans.

 

[RWCleaning]

Ok

I’ve got a big house that I only do once a year. Every summer. Just done it actually. Takes 10 hours to do. Most of mine are 4 weekly. Some 8 weekly. Even a few at 12 weeks.

Monthly, but got new custie other day that wanted fortnightly...Fantastic, reminded me of the good old days when the rounds used to be fortnightly.

 

[scottish cleaning service]

Its actually 2 half days a month. Could do my 30 customers in one day as they are round the corner but I spend half my time talking to them as they are OAP's. Why rush if there's no need to. Cant wait to begin my PW venture as I have a big posh house to do for my website photos. :1f609:  

Strange how we change and adapt. My PW venture is slowing down and my roof cleaning work is taking off.

Would u charge a little bit more on a 5 week than on a 4 week?

Hi All.

What do most people canvass for 4 weekly 5/6 what does most of your round consist of? What do the public /domestic go for more?

Thanks for your help, this forum is a god send. Thanks again

95% of my work is every 4 weeks domestic and commercial.  The other 5% is done quarterly (Resorts and Hotels.)

4 and 8 weekly for me. Love a 4 weekly round as it usually means a bit of extra cash each month compared to monthly. My 8 weeklies I just split between each month to even it out, I pretty much have the same amount of work money wise each week now.

If I was starting again though I'd do 6 weekly only. Hassle free.

 

[mike007]

I was 4 weekly, but due to weather and wanting to ease off a bit have become 5 weekly. Am enjoying doing slightly less weekly work and not having to bin customers to achieve it. And also free,s up space and time for the odd new customer or add on.
