      @bm1588 5 дней назад +1

      Yeah, you want to raise your rate up until your close rate goes down to like 80%. I think it is.

    • @bm1588
      @bm1588 5 дней назад +1

      really it could be any close rate if you know how to generate more leads. If raising your price by 25% decreases your close rate from like 80% to 60% you are still making the same amount of money because you are charging more. You may even make more money because you have less labor.

    Been wanting to start a pressure washing company for a while now but don't have the money to get the equipment I'd like so I decided to look into window cleaning as it has a lower entry point to get started and help save money for what I want. After a few vids, the YT algorithm threw this at me on a day I happened to have the time to watch in one go. The energy and attitude immediately motivated me and I ordered some equipment from WCR. Almost immediately scored a biweekly commercial job. Just got my business cards made and am making time to pitch to other businesses this week. Hope you know how much this info helps people. Doing great work sir.

Great video though. Also they sell battery powered vacuums for vehicles work great for window sills and saves from bringing out an extension coord.
