KNocked out two jobs, bought Mr. Hardwater, and failed to get marketing pics.
What a day....
Knocked out two first time cleans today. First job was BIG bank. 250 bucks an hour.
Job two, not so great. 75 bucks an hour.
Job two was a resto job. Glass had not been cleaned in YEARS. Pine trees did a number on the glass, besides a couple seals that were faulty, allowing moisture between the panes. They were happy with the end results, despite the seal issues. Should have taken before/after pics. This is just one of those jobs you need to showcase your skills, even if it isn't the normal.
They are listing the home for sale with the realtor tomorrow, so maybe she will want my number. Probably not, but if she does, what better a reference could I get? She knows what they looked like before.
As a side note, I bought a Mr. Hardwater kit. Been flipping between wanting Glass Renue, and Mr. Hardwater. I don't want to grind glass, as I feel there is VERY little call for it here. However, hard water, especially showers, there is plenty of call for. I already have a variable speed polisher, so I ordered the kit that did not have the polisher. I will likely start using the marketing materials that I get with the kit soon, to push these services. Maybe this will be my winter "fill" since after fall, it's dad for me until spring.

Thats a very productive day Mr Freemind. I was working on the boat until I received a call for a job today quick and easy.
Is the slow season for windows slower than the carpet cleaning slow season?

For me, winter is dead.
There is a summer slow down, most of us get into in July too.

Winter death is a very real thing around here as well. Once the snow flies, it is over except for some commercial.
Maybe I just move to warmer weather this winter and work for you guys. My house plants can do without me.
