What's the best method for getting new work. . Have tried the canvassing route but found people are out a lot. Have had reasonable success with flyers thru doors but not getting work that quickly. Any advice on other methods. Have tried ad in paper but no joy.

 
I wonder how many if asked "would you like a free window clean" would say "yes" :rolleyes:

Hi Smurfey , yeah have put a free clean on the flyers if regular clean booked. It works ok. Canvassing is what everyone recommends. Maybe I need to go out in the evening. After 6 ish

 
Time is your friend in this game, unless you just buy a round or pay a canvasser.

Would be interested in buying some work but nothing about in my area. Just gotta keep plugging away and brush up on the doorstep charm I guess.

Yep offered half price 1st clean at first but very little response.

 
1st clean discounts, freebies and whatnot seem like just a great way to attract the ones that just want a clean every five years (...but the want to pay the same price as a monthly custy).
