Storefront customers

I hate when my store front customers ask me to give them a price for there house

Hair dresser pace j clean just ask me 2 weeks ago I still didn’t give him the estimate. Lol.
If he doesn’t like the price them I have to look at him every time I’m there cleaning his store. Ugh !!!
Oh well it is what it is . Oh BTW cleaning him Tommorrow

I pitched a donut shop on the Windows they said no, but we need the suspended ceiling light fixtures cleaned. I told him 15 bucks. “You do now?” Fifteen each? Sure will, let me go grab my ladder. Hate to think what kind of argument would have erupted if I hadn’t clarified and just done them real quick… that’ll be $120 please. Little Asian dude would have freaked out. Lol.

Hah, I was gonna do storefronts just to land residential clients… but suddenly my new uniform is drawing me res jobs like a magnet. Working one job today and lady from 4 yards across yells at me, “Hey, window cleaner! Can you give me an estimate?” Then next door neighbour comes home, “Careful on my interlocking… oh, and can you leave me a business card?”

I went from desperately trying to find work to being booked for 9 days straight.

Good job man !

I clean a coffee shop and the owner had me give her a quote on her home. She never called me for her home but I still clean the coffee shop. No hard feelings, business is business.

Give them a spitball. How big is your house? Single story? How many windows - oh, those are usually $150-$250 depending on how many windows you have but I can go by and take a look if you’d like.

If they don’t like the lower end of the range, then saves you time. If they like that range, then go bid it.

Absolutely … But what I think is fair, an what they think is fair is the problem.

What’s Strezy says is the fact … business is business here is the price if you can’t decipher the difference than it is what it is

I just understand the mentality of storefront customers been dealing with them for to long
