One of the window cleaners we helped early on, we were doing lots of online canvassing for them. Great to see how far they have come! :) Couldn't wish success with their window cleaning business to a nice couple 🤩🙏
We’ve shared how A-Star Window Cleaning started, but like any small business, it hasn’t all been plain sailing…
There was a point a few years in when everything seemed to go wrong at once. Within five years, we’d already gone through three vans — and at then at one point, three decided to give up on us in the same week. 😩
Trying to replace them all while keeping on top of jobs, making sure our customers were happy, and keeping our team busy felt impossible. We were exhausted, frustrated, and honestly wondering how on earth we were going to get through it.
But we did. 💪 With little eyes on us, we had no choice👧
We didn’t let it phase us — we just kept going. There wasn’t really a choice; we had a busy home life to juggle, a team depending on us, and customers who trusted us to turn up no matter what.
It was one of those moments that really tested us, but it also reminded us why we started this in the first place — to build something strong for our family, to create work we could be proud of, and to show our kids that even when things fall apart (literally, in this case 😂), you keep moving forward.
Thankfully, we weren’t doing it all alone. Around that time, we brought in a canvasser to help with our marketing Josh Owen at Reliable Lead Generation was amazing, showed us the ins and outs of the marketing side of things and kept us going — someone who believed in what we were building and worked hard alongside us to keep the business growing, even when things were tough.
Looking back now, those challenging days feel like the foundation that made A-Star what it is today — resilient, hardworking, and determined to shine through anything.💫
Stay tuned for Part 4… because things definitely started looking up from here. ✨
