I’m thinking of starting a window cleaning business, but not sure how to get started. Is it legal to buy the necessary equipment, and then do a bit of door to door canvassing, or posting flyers to advertise, or will i need to get some sort of license to do that?

Hi, Matt!
Starting a window cleaning business can be a very good business in these economic times. I know of a guy that makes close to $100K with it.
But, about your questions…since I don’t know where you are located, the best thing for you to do is contact your local city or county clerk’s office (in the USA-or whatever it might be elsewhere). They can tell you whether you need a license and/or can solicit door to door. Be sure to do this as many towns and cities have ordinances against this or you need a permit. You probably won’t need a license for the cleaning, but check.
Personally, I would target shops and small businesses because image and first impressions are important to their livelihood and they are always looking for the best deal and may be more apt to give you a try.
I have a fabulous resource on starting a window cleaning business on my Squidoo lens about starting cleaning businesses. It’s from the guy who makes $100K, so he knows what he’s talking about! The links are in My Profile.
