Hi its a new year and I have spent the last six months racking my brains thinking of a business that i can startup on my own.
I am currently on PAYE but have not had a pay rise in 5 years.... so when I lost my last job last june I registered a company but could not think of what to do with it....
then last week it hit me.. a window cleaning business.
my mate has been doing it for 20 years so i called him round and asked him to show me the proper way to clean a window.
I had most of the kit... a 11 foot double ladder (goes to 22 feet) and a roof rack (that we took down becuase we never used it in 6 months....
now i have a reason to use it..
I am going to do weekends at first and then once I am at the tipping point of 230 to 250 customers I will move to full time..
Its going to be a hard year but I am hell bent on being my own boss.
My business card came today so this weekend is canvassing.
Cheers
Matt
