  • Been down in Cannock for the past week canvassing for Webb's Window Cleaning Services, Viewer of the channel called me in for some backup to help kickstart his business and I was happy to help. Pushed me out of my comfort zone feeling the pressure to be responsible for someone else's work so here's 5 important lessons and tips that I've picked up this week.
    Sorry about the rambling, had to pass the time somehow! Thanks again for 300 Subscribers folks I really appreciate it. - Sid.

    Hey Sid. I've been at my son to start a window round. He's not afraid of graft but is terrified of the canvassing side of things. I think your videos are great for encouraging people to have a try and not to be put off by all the "no's" Keep geeing us all up mate... Jeff

      Hi Jeff, that's great to hear mate thank you, Just let him know that the he'll be nervous the first day or maybe even the first few doors every day but once you get going it all becomes normal and it's a great way to build confidence! good luck to you both!

    I agree with everything in your video, and well presented. I started canvassing in the early 90's for double glazing firms, so canvassing for window cleaning comes quite easy. I agree with Sid that maintaining your attitude and setting yourself a daily target will help. Another thing that might help is to go out canvassing with someone else, you can then have a bit of a banter on the way and keep each other motivated.

    Quite a few of your points of advice, resonated with this old book i got lying around here, Influence the art of persuasion. Basically social psychology geared towards marketing. Good for anyone trying to sell their services.

    I have a real issue with door to door canvassing / leaflets for a couple of reasons. There are groups of people who exploit people typically the tree cutting, drive cleaning and waste removal. They rarely have a home or business phone number and an address on the leaflet, and never offer out an address/s of a customer you could check out. They rarely look smart, smart makes me think trust (a bit different if your working on the street). So these are some of the reasons I never use people who canvass or leaflet my property.

      Yep they always tip well and pay ontime too... honestly in all the rounds ive built ive made more money in the lower income areas. The big houses in the villages take 3 times as long for only twice the price sometimes.
