George The Window Cleaner’s Assistant - Win The Software!

George the Window Cleaner’s Assistant: Everything you need to automate your Window Cleaning business. This is my program of choice for collating details of my clients & working out scheduling, tracking debts & providing history of work & forecasts. It's also available as a free download & trial for three months. The system has been designed to be as easy to use as possible, and has a number of features to reduce your effort to the minimum. George is available as a free download allowing you to evaluate it at your own pace in your own business. If at any time you decide you don't want to continue using George there is a Data Export function available to export your data to a spreadsheet so you can still use the information you input. Look where George is used around the world here. What does it do?

• Schedules your Jobs
• Tracks your Debts
• Records your Expenses
• Automatically Backs Up your Data
• Provides valuable financial histories and forecasts.

PocketGeorge: Your business in your pocket, this is an extension to George that allows you to upload your Work List and Debt List to an inexpensive Palm pocket computer. As you finish each Job, you simply mark it as Done and/or Paid by ticking a couple of boxes on the pocket computer. You can do the same with your Debt List - marking off the Debts as you collect them. At the end of the day a single button press will update your Job schedule and Debt records on your PC and load the next day's work. If you have several people servicing different Routes they can have a Palm machine each and you can capture all their data each day with the press of a single button. This is included in the price of the program.

Internet Back-Up: This has saved my bacon on at least a few occasions - & a bonus that I would definitely recommend. There is a small charge of £12 (24$) per year to cover costs. This gives you complete peace of mind - just run the Data Restore program and you’re up and running again in minutes.

SPECIAL OFFER:

• George is currently offering Full Registration of George:
• PLUS Lifetime Support and Updates

Hi my name is Joe, administrator of Water Fed Pole Training Academy.com:  - I got the idea from Giveaway of the day and this got me thinking, what if I could convince established window cleaning suppliers to donate anything they like, small or large, even better for new businesses to get their product known. My vision of the giveaway was if the wfptrainingacademy forum got regular free giveaways, this would bring in many new window cleaners traditional and wfp, and this will be good advertising for the companies who donate a piece of equipment, or cleaning products, in fact anything at all. My idea was if regular donations are made then regular window cleaners will come into the forum more frequently, and the businesses involved in the giveaways, will be recognized more, if there is a brand new product out there. Well I do hope this idea will work, I am working very hard to make the giveaways successfully, I would also like to take this oportunity, to ask any window cleaning suppliers to try out our giveaways on the forum, this could be the start of a good relationship with hundreds of window cleaners - if any company is interested, please email me at joeuk45@gmail.com

Window Cleaning Software - Roundtracker 4 - The Video

Roundtracker Version 4: Things never go quite as planned do they?

Whether it be the rain, the van that let you down, the battery that was flat, the pump that decided to die on you, the guy that didn’t show up....more often than not things don’t go quite as planned. That means that your ‘perfect’ schedule of when you need to go and clean your customer’s windows often needs readjusting. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a program available that is flexible enough to handle your constantly changing schedule without any hassle?

You’ve tried the free trials of other programs but it takes forever to entering your customer details.... Wouldn’t it be nice if there was a system available that would let you take care of your invoicing, accounts and scheduling with very little effort? Wouldn’t it be nice if you didn’t have to keep re-writing your work diary when it falls apart.

Wouldn’t it be nice to have an organised system for your canvassing efforts instead of those bits of paper with scribbled notes and and quotes you need to follow up on littering your van? Wouldn’t it be nice if that program only cost thirty seven pounds? It’s time to get organised!
