I think you have been reading to many posts and not having a go yourself to really comment on what the job is really like. Like I said before go with someone that uses both trad & wfp for a few days then you can see for yourself if you like the job or not. Running a business is a completly seperate thing to being just a window cleaner so you find that out too.

You don't need money or wfp to get started. You'll expand as quick as you wana expand, depending on how much effort you wana put it.

I know it's hard graft and that not something I'm worried about to be honest

Everyone's circs are different, but at the end of the day I gota do what's best for my family, which is to slowly move over so I still have a secure income for the bills

I will go wfp with a trolley to start I think

will have to sort a time out to pop down so you can use my wfp to have a go with it,

 
Very sensible approach if you ask me regarding income. /emoticons/wink.png

That would be great mate /emoticons/smile.png my missus shifts are about to change so maybe we can look at after the. Some point

 
Yer

I mean its hard for me to decide which way to go at the moment, I could sell up the bike, by a van, sign write it and then use the van for windows and commuting to my other job and slowly move over that way, also gives me free advertising during rush hour when I'm going to my office job....

Or keep the bike in case it goes **** up so I still have cheap transport to office job and use the car with a trolley system and trad untill I build up...... I just don't know lol

 
why start on a trolley ? your only going to want to van mount after 1 month trust me mate /emoticons/smile.png

 
yes but you got your daughter so if you need a week day I can always pull a sicky at the 9-5 ( even though I haven't done that in 6 years lol)
weekends are fine with me, well saturdays are the better day out of the 2
