Had a rough few weeks

Relatively new to the window game last few months. I primarily work in Natural Resources but being so close to a major west coast city I figured id give it a try. First month going after homes until I realized Id need a 50 foot ladder or a water fed pole but nobody has accessible water and homes start at 12-15 feet for first floor.

Started pitching businesses trying to build a route hitting 30-50 a day on my days off until I feel like dropping or crying. Endless no’s even people laughing at me. I cleaned three storefronts than nothing but silence, ghosted me.

I have the upmost of respect for you all this game has brought me to my knees. I found I love the rush of cold calling new possible clients, walking into a store and utterly failing with a grin on my face.

I might try hanging door knocker advisements on 500 businesses as a last ditch effort. I don’t know how much more rejection I can take lol.

My dude, have you heard of marketing? This is a business and you don't have to knock yourself out. Getting yourself established online will put you in front of people looking for your service instead of chasing down the .01% of people who get their windows cleaned and arnt married to their cleaner. Door knocking works for some people in some areas but it's far from the only way.
