If you are fit and healthy and can climb ladders then window cleaning could be the business for you. The start up costs are low and you can begin straight away.
Start by collecting together a ladder, buckets, chamois, cloths and wiper. Then clean all the windows of your own house or a friend’s. Time yourself, count the windows. You will be working out your charges on this information.
When you know what you are going to be doing and how much to charge, work out a small leaflet advertisement. Get these printed off from your computer. Choose the streets you want to be working in and post the leaflets through every door.
When the replies begin to come discuss requirements and book them in. Then when you do the job at each house call at the neighbouring properties to offer you services in person pointing out that you are already working in the area.
This can build into a very good solid business. Of course, if you want it to grow more then employ others and maybe spread further afield.
