I appreciate Matt sharing his knowledge about EVS. I will spend some more time educating myself on the specifics to conduct this type of cleaning thoroughly.
Thank you for the videos, I am looking to get more commercial jobs. I have binge watching your videos and just made my first cold call & signed my first commercial contract.
I appreciate so much great information you always provide in your videos. I just got hired for my first dental clinic this past week and your videos are so helpful thank you!
This is awesome been studying these videos for few days. Now. Can’t wait to get started. Thank you for this content. Wish me luck. I’m new to this, but I got this.
I have a walk through coming up tomorrow for a OSC that is 17,775 sq ft. I’ve never done anything like this before, and I’m horrible at estimates. I think it would take close to 8 hours.
Good luck today! You've got this. Get everything you need during the walkthrough to set an accurate bid: measurements, count how many restrooms and fixtures, count the floor types, and don't forget to take pictures!
Hello! I was wondering how you arrange being let in or closing up after a commercial cleaning job? How does one use the right verbiage to arrange this with the client?
Facilities will typically provide cleaners with a key or key card to access the building. If there is security on site they may be informed as well. Its always good to ask these questions early on and follow up with emails to make sure the processes are set in stone.
Not as part of our TH-cam membership, but we are launching a private community soon and will have sales template for sale on our website - octocleanmedia.com. When we launch, we will make an announcement here.
How are supplies (chemicals, toilet paper, etc.) accounted for in your bids? Is that a passthrough based on usage, or do you estimate the usage and bake it into your quotes?
Matt, what certifications will I need to clean these types of medical facilities and are these standard across the U.S? Meaning are all certifications good for a given medical clinic or some may require some above others? Thank you! KASA Cleaning Solutions Tucson, AZ
really good information from a bussiness standpoint.....BUT i will interject some reality data due to personal hands expierence (i do ocassional terminal cleaning myself), not all facilites have the staff and/or the staff currently on hand can/wlll not perform within that timeframe....main reason(s) ive heard from staff themselves is pay is too low for that type of work those are my thoughts on this subject of terminal cleaning services
Always helpful, informative videos. Thank you! Question, I’m currently working with Waxie and looking at purchasing their chemicals for my cleaning business after watching so many of your videos. How do I know if I’m getting fair pricing from them? They basically told me I could negotiate pricing, but I have no idea what fair. How do learn this?
We love Waxie! They offer a fantastic product for our industry. In terms of negotiating a deal, it may be based on overall volume. We recommend gathering prices and samples from 1 or 2 more companies to help develop a fair price.
We include that in signing the contract, the customer agrees to pay us within 30 days of the billing date. Late payments may incur service and finance charges. In the event of default on payment we have the right to stop services until past due payments have been made. The customer is responsible for maintaining at least one valid billing address and we include an email to make changes. Hope this help! Thanks for watching and leaving a comment.
@OctoClean thank you for responding. Is the net 30 day billed in advance or after a month of service? So basically would a October 1st invoice be for September's service? As in you could go 60 days from the start of the service for any given month before you receive payment. Or would a October 1st invoice be for the service of the current month of October? Hope that makes since.
We bill after a month of service, but there are others who request payment upfront. We have the reserves to do this, plus it comes with the territory of the types of account we work with. So do what is best for you!
