Do You NEED Lots of Supplies to Begin Window Cleaning?

You don’t need to have everything befoe you start. That’s the kind of thinking that stops people before they start making money. “I need a ladder, I guess I can’t take that job.” Maybe you can borrow a ladder for a day!

As you begin making money washing windows, set money aside to buy more materials. You will need a ladder, a “waist bucket,” and poles to reach higher with your squeegee. 

How to Start Making Money FAST, Washing Windows

Set your goal of making money, then hit the street. Keith Kalfas said he sold 42 window cleaning jobs in his first day. He didn’t clean 42 jobs, but he booked them. He found an area with lots of store-front businesses and set out to talk to the owners or decision-makers. 

He would do work on the spot. And He had his flyers ready to give them in case it wasn’t a yes for that day. He took their business cards and called them to see when he could come back to clean. 

People respect determination and drive. Wouldn’t you rather give your business to someone who is eager to serve you? 

What If You Can't Do this Work Yourself?

There may be good reasons why you cant personally wash windows.

You can still work this plan. How about partnering with someone who does have the energy and strength to do the physical work? You can do the marketing and sales.
