Diversify and Multiply!

Talk about diversification. This is a great way to do it. When you get started in your own cleaning business, you can use the same company name and business license to get customers for any or all of the following repeat services too.

1. House or office cleaning,

Residential or commercial cleaning can be done by one in the same cleaning company with the same business license.

2. Restroom cleaning,

Many businesses employ a private cleaning service just to clean the restrooms only.

Potential customers include many restaurants and convenience stores.

3. Window cleaning,

Mainly the many storefront windows that are everywhere.

4. Public area's of condo and apartment buildings.

(such as laundry rooms, steps and stairwells,managers office, lobbies and meeting rooms).

The contacts you can make really are endless and quite often one thing will lead to another.

 One cleaning service can help you get your foot in the door for another cleaning service that you offer.

So, why not see if there is a notice board in any of the buildings/offices you clean....and put your business card or flyer on it.....you will be amazed at the response! Plus..the people who respond will most likely want to clean their homes when they are at work..so it's a great opportunity to make some easy extra money....

Here's A Cleaning Tip For Great Looking Stainless Steel Sinks

Stainless steel is everywhere. Most homes have stainless steel sinks in them and all medical offices have them in every treatment room. 

 

Many refrigerators are now stainless steel and office restrooms have lots of stainless steel in them too.

 

Cleaning these sinks is one thing. 

 

Making them look beautiful and like new is something else. 

 

To clean them you can simply use Ajax or Comet with a scrub pad. 

 

Rinse and then wipe off all the water.

 

Now use a commercial product available at any Janiorial Supply

Store, called "Sheila Shine". 

 

It is a liquid that you can pour into a spray bottle. It has an oil base to it and very little is needed. 

 

Just spray onto dry stainless steel and wipe off.

 

It works wonders! Makes the sinks look like new and everyone is impressed with your work! 

 

Have you tried it yet?

 

You can use a more affordable brand other than "Sheila Shine" but

liquid stainless steel cleaner is only found at a janitorial supply store.

 

 Give it a try. It works great!

Not Everyone Is In A Bad Economy

 

 Not Everyone Is In A Bad Economy

 

When it comes to your own office cleaning service, it is best to remember...that certain business owners are doing great even in a bad ecomomy. 

 

It is for this reason that your own office cleaning service is very reccession resistant.

In fact these particular types of offices should be targeted for potential new accounts.

 

I'm sure you can guess what one of them is: Doctors offices, Medical offices. Dental offices,

Groups of doctors. Medical practices consisting of several physicians usually have a business name that ends in "Group" or "Associates". Knowing that about their name will make it easier for you to find them in your area.

Don't forget the Law Offices. 

 

There are also many attorneys working together out of one business which is also reffered to as "Group" or Associates". 

Quite often a law firm will display the individual names of the attorneys in the name of their business.

This will tip you off right away that it is a larger business that is not only doing well financially but requires a private cleaning service such as yours. 

Note: for any kind of medical office, you should add 25% more to the price of your estimate to clean. This is well worth it as medical offices all have treatment rooms in them with stainless steel sinks and require a more time consuming job in comparison to offices that are not medical.

 

So...do they know about your cleaning service? Have you submitted your service

agreement to them yet? There are many of these kinds of offices in your area right now, so make sure they know about you and remember...your objective. 

 

You want to (1.)submit your bid ,(2.) mail your bid follow- up letter, then (3.)call them about your service.

 

This order of things may also take place in a different way.

For example, based on an initial phone conversation or personal visit with a decision maker, you may then want to mail them your introduction letter, then call them, then submit your bid and mail your follow up letter.
