WCR Nation | The Podcast For Window Cleaners

This week on Nation, we are talking all about the long-term vs. the short-term. As many of you know, I very much dislike doorknocking. It is 100% bad for your window cleaning business. But it brings up the debate; why do people get sales with it? Well, that is the difference between building a business and building a JOB. There is strength in a business and none in a job. If you are building a com...

This week on WCR Nation, we are talking all about building a business versus building just a job. There’s a big difference when you have a small business versus just a job. Either is right; it's all up to your master plan. BUT I can tell you a job doesn't have much value. I can sell a business and VALUE a business, but I can't do either with a job. It's all about the mindset. It's all about what y...

Buying your first water fed is a bit overwhelming. But I can make your decision easy, with just 5 questions. Why is it so overwhelming?? Well, there are like 1,000 choices. I mean, why would someone pick one over the other? You are just getting into it, so why would you get a 10k set up? But is it a bad choice to get it cheaper? What attachments are needed? What else do I need with a package? We’l...

This week on Nation, let’s talk all about my lessons learned. Now over the past 16 years, I have a ton more than 5, BUT this is only a 30-minute podcast. These are the things I’ve learned that I need to remind people of all the time. When you're in business for so long, you tend to get blinders on for just your company.

Small business systems, in general, will allow you to have more time an...

If you want to increase your...

People tend to express their opinions...

People who have no value sell themselves on how cheap they are. Because with no value, or nothing that makes them unique, they can only make themselves cheaper. That is a race to the bottom. Competing on price is a way to devalue you and lose...
