Hey everyone! My name is Aaron and I recently stumbled on this group and I’m super happy I did. My wife and I recently started a small owner-operator window cleaning company called Spruce Up Services in Whatcom County, WA. Previously I had worked for a window washing company in Brooklyn, NY for a couple years, but this will be my first time starting my own business. We’ll both be doing the work ourselves and are starting out mostly focused on residential window cleaning, hoping to get into other services in the future.
One thing a little different about our situation is that volunteer work is a big priority for us, so we’re intentionally building the business to stay flexible (to at times be away for weeks at a time doing that). Our goal is to run a smaller operation for now, working about 3 days a week.
I’d love to learn from those of you who have been doing this longer. A few things I’d like to pick your brains about and have a multitude of counselors:
• What pitfalls should new window cleaning business owners avoid when starting out?
• What are the best ways you’ve found to get jobs early on?
• How would you go about running the business with my circumstances of needed flexibility?
If anyone is willing, I’d really appreciate honest feedback on my website or door hanger design as well.

Thanks for any help you can give! I know this is probably a big ask but I thought I’d try. Really looking forward to learning from everyone here 😀
