Need Customers for Your Cleaing Business?

My good friend Sam, who has had a successful Office Cleaning Business since 1992, was helping me with ideas to increase my office cleaning business. I want to share one of them that has already brought me a new client and $2,500/month----

Every County across America has their own website.

You may want to take a look at it just to see what that one looks like.
Once at the website for your area, you would click onto,"Building permit reports" and then you would click onto: "unincorporated XXX County" to locate new building permits for office buildings.

You can locate them for each individual month. Go back 6 months at a time
because it quite often takes that long for a builder to finish building a new office building.

NOTE:

You will need to find out what the website is for your County where you live.
Call you local courthouse for starters and find someone who can tell you exactly
the correct website for your area that will show you the building permits for offices
and office buildings in your area. Try calling the building permits office in your area
first.

This is a matter of public record and you can access and see this information along with the owners name of the office or office building. Start with the owner as he or she can at least tell you who the decision maker is. You may already be talking with them.

It is a great source of leads and new customers that should not
be overlooked. The early bird gets the worm. So start with these new building permits going back 6 months up to the present, and stick with them like glue. Call them and track down the decision maker regarding their future hiring of a private cleaning service. Keep your own personal notes on each one that you call.
Mail them and call them on a regular basis with the goal being to submit your bid
for them to at least keep on file. When they are ready to hire a cleaning service
you will be there and they will be expecting you too.

You can check out these building permits once each month to see whats new. Even if your initial list consist of only 5 or 10 that would be just fine because they are so well targeted. Your list will grow and your chances of getting a new customer who pays you every month for your cleaning service will be much greater.

If you are not already doing this, it is easy to get started with this method. All the best proven methods for getting customers are contained in the Office Cleaning Business StartUp Kit and you should do a mix of them all. Don't depend on any
one way of getting customers. Mix them up and always include phone calls as part of your efforts to get a new customer because it works!

If you're not sure how or what to say in your phone call or introduction letters, the Office Cleaning Business StartUp Kit has scripts and introduction letters already done for you, plus contracts, estimate charts, book-keeping, supplies and, well, just about everything you need to run Your Office Cleaning Business successfully and start making money FAST!

In this economy, the last thing you need is to loose a potential client! It won't happen if you have the proper knowledge and tools that the Office Cleaning Business StartUp Kit provides...and it's inexpensive! If you can't afford it--you can't afford to be in the business!!! Plain and simple.
