Hi guys.
Just curious to see what everyone deems as an acceptable radius for their rounds.
As many will have seen i had a facebook ad which generated alot of new work. Much of this i havent taken on as its to far out of my "radius".
As im still building my round id like to see others opinions on whats best, especially from folk who have been in this game a while / or have done really well and are happy.
I live in south East london so its largely populated. I set out a 5 mile radius from my home and thought thats the furthest ill travel.
Thing is now i have some customers and i mean 1 or 2 that are one side of this area and another few on the opposite side so thats a 10 mile drive from 1 custy to another.
I have a small pocket right on my doorstep withing 1/2 a square mile wgich i clean already roughly 30 houses over 5 roads.
In others opinions would i be better off scrapping custys that are 4 or 5 miles away and soley focusing on canvassing each 1/2 square mile at a time working outwards
Or
Keep the custys i have as they are ones that have requested window cleaning, and try and canvass their neighboring streets etc to increase my workloads in those areas.
I just find myself going insane somedays driving past 0000's of houses to go and clean 2 for £17 each then back again.
Basic round building advice i suppose.
Look forward to everyone's opinions and experiences with this one.
Cheers lads.
