Up here in Ny I figure I can roughly go until the second week of November. I mean to where there is enough work for a full day or twice a week. I had hoped to do atleast two hundred homes this year,I will fall short of that. Right now I am at 138 roofs cleaned,with four more to go. I would like to ask the big companys { where two hundred roofs is a drop in the bucket } if they have been slower then usual this year? Is it the economy perhaps?

Congratulations on the 138. The weather has me down a little also. Days getting shorter and colder.

You guys are not forgetting about the green wash are you?

I dont know about the green wash? Can you tell me about it? Or should I search for it?

guest

The Green Wash is AC new product that will allow you to clean way below normal cleaning conditions, it is a turbo booster for SH, soon as it hits the shingles it will clean, no more winter dwell time?

Fortunately I'm not poor enough to be working outside in the snow. I figure I have about a month left.

Now Now, I have to say he may have somthing there. Most homes will not have their water on, I am wondering if the " cold " will protect the shurbs naturally? I have noticed the cooler it is the easier it is to protect plant/shrub life.

guest

good question, the plants are dormant right? does that mean you can't damage them?

Oct 21, 2010

I think if AC's stuff will work on the roof in the cold that probably it would also affect the shurbs in the cold?

I am personally not slow at all. We just went out on our own in early August and as of now i need a second truck on the road. Booking work for January and February 2011

Thats great , you must not do too many jobs a day. If your booked until Feb thats like 75 roofs if your only doing one roof a day. Thats not counting Saturdays. If you are running two trucks thats amazing. You need to share your marketing stragety with the other guys in Florida. We are in Ohio we stop working in November and start booking for March. How many roofs do you clean a year?

Clyde, I understand what your saying because this is what you have heard. Is there any proof that this stuff works? Who is using it. I know some people who have hired AC to teach them are not using it. Its expensive and there is no proof it's any better than what we are using. Remember AC himself has stated many times that his company uses more SHC than any company. HUM that makes you think a little doesn't. Everyone is trying to make a quick buck off the members of this forum.

Pat I think the company is called Delux where you can order the Green Wash. Its been talked about not to long ago in threads after the last convention. They also have a plant wash to neutralize the effects of SH. I ordered some last month at the convention but its yet to arrive. I will be cleaning roofs this winter if the calls come in. If someone is selling the home or the insurance co. makes someone do it, then I will be the guy. and you better believe I will charge a premium.

marketing strategy. know your product,speak with authority and deliver as sold. Be Honest with the customer do not use Smoke and Mirrors. I am pulling on 20 plus years of experience and relationships that are and have been built on trust. In my profile will give you a hint of my background in this business.
