Yes, I was wondering about construction cleanouts and getting the contracts to clean out apartments after people move as a niche. Thanks.
@@jerel2119 Lots of demand for both of those! And I have students in my program finding great success in both those areas. :-)
@@TheProfessionalCleaner I Work at a High School as a Custodian/ Janitor and My Goal is to Only Run a Commercial Cleaning Business. Should I use My Own Phone Number On My Business Card or should I Create a Business Contact Number?
@@jjcooltrumpetgoat9020 I use my own for my local cleaning biz, but some of my students get a virtual number that forwards. The biggest issue with using your own is you might get some spam calls, but I don't get so much that it bothers me. :-)

Hi, and thanks for the informative video! I was wondering what is the best way to find good subcontractors? Also, is there a video on niche cleaning services?
Currently I am using Indeed. And I have a video about picking a niche, is that what you're asking? Or is there a specific niche you'd like to learn more about? :-)
I would like a big company to leave for my children for generational wealth
Excellent goal to build a legacy business for your family!
Since I employed cleaners who brought their own vacuum I have had a clothing moth infestation. Great tip! Thanks
Glad it was helpful!
I told a friend that you required customers to maintain products in their homes, and he stated that when he had cleaners come to his apartment, they brought everything with them. He said that he had no cleaning products and would not have contracted that company if they’d required he already have the products required. Do you bring the products and leave them there yourself, or do the clients have to go out and purchase a list of products and keep them on hand? Thank you for all the info you provide!
When I did residential I tool a kit from job to job, but the bulk of the products I required the homeowner to buy. In some cases I ensured they always had what I needed on hand, and in some cases I they took care of that well on their own. And now that we only do commercial, I require the business owner to do the same. We create a monthly order, but they pay for it. And this comes down to one simple thing: client communication. When I teach my clients WHY I prefer this, and how it makes no difference to their bottom line in the end, they are more than happy to comply. And just because 'most cleaners' take everything from job to job doesn't make it right, or wrong. Every business is different. But I am all about building the business I want to actually own and run. :-)
can you create proposals on that payment website?
Yep!
Hello❤ in one of the steps you explained that we should find out if it’s required to be licensed or have a permit in my area… I live in Florida and it’s not required …..so does that mean I make that clear that on my business card?? Will clients look for me being licensed on my business card, even though it’s not required in my area? Thanks in advance.
I've never put this on business cards, or even that I am insured for that matter. I just communicate this when talking to clients. It should go without saying that a reputable business is insured. :-)
I only have one client and since I’m starting she is only paying me $55 once a week and that’s not a living it’s two bedroom and an office it’s pretty big but I don’t know how to get other clients and a raised
Check out my video on finding clients and don't ever underestimate the power of getting in front of people!
I want to start my residential / commercial business and make 6 figures in 6 months
Totally doable!
For hiring 1099, with the new laws going in place, it states that any 1099 contractors, they must be completing work independent of what the companies described work is. How can this be worked around?
I can't give legal advice, so best to do your research or seek counsel on that. But I can absolutely tell you that you should be compliant in your business... so don't view it as 'working around' something but rather doing what it takes to ensure compliance. If you can use contractors then go for it. But if your biz requires W2 employees then go that route. You can build an awesome biz either way! :-)
We had registered our company and EIN also got . We have license for remodeling residential also , to start cleaning business we need permit or another license ? We r in NYC
It's different everywhere... so call your local government and ask. Could be city, or could be county... but the 2 questions to ask: 1) Do I need a permit of some kind to operate a cleaning biz? 2) Do I need a business license to operate a cleaning biz? 👍
My biggest concern is how do we go about getting insurance to cover the sub-contractors in case someone get's hurt or steals from a client etc.
A sub is their own business owner, and therefore would need their own insurance. If you hired employees, then you would cover them under your insurance. And the laws for subs have gotten stricter so I now employ both subs and employees. Neither is right or wrong, they are different, and ultimately you need to ensure you are compliant. :-)
If you're starting up a carpet cleaning business and you need to pre vacuum their carpet, but they do not have a vacuum, what do you do?
My guess is you'd need to bring your own in those cases... but I don't specialize in carpet cleaning... just general cleaning. I'm sure this guy could help you out though! Check him out! :-) >>> www.youtube.com/@greenrhinoproject
Can I take your course online ? How much is it ? How can I send email to you ?
Yep... you can learn more here. courses.theprofessionalcleaner.net/products/cba And email us here. support@theprofessionalcleaner.net 🙂
Hey there, I was wondering if your business model work for Carpet Cleaning businesses
Hi there... it's very similar. In many ways, easier. Typically carpet cleaning can be quoted by the SF, where janitorial shouldn't be. In my brief break away from cleaning I actually worked for a commercial carpet cleaning supply company. I sold Cimex's. But my program is geared more towards general janitorial, although the methods I teach for client acquisition would def work for carpet cleaning too. The biggest difference is less recurrence... meaning people usually need cleaning weekly, every other week, etc. Carpet cleaning is more like every 6 months or every year, maybe longer, depending on the case. So you'd need more clients to keep the income coming in. :-)
@TheProfessionalCleaner yes, I'm mostly interested in software, CRMs, marketing and how you get clients
@@TheProfessionalCleaner I think you have convinced me to go the general cleaning route due to its ease of being done remotely. Id like to see whats all included in the course.
@@realcodymelton My program isn't geared towards the 'remote model' you see all over TH-cam... so please email us before purchasing and we will explain more. :-) support@theprofessionalcleaner.net
How do I get commercial office contracts?
I get mine by targeting/direct outreach, and referrals. Building relationships is key!
Do you feel like this market is over saturated? There are competition groups that are willing to charge dirt cheap i hear. It's giving me cause for concern.
Not at all! Watch my latest video... I speak about why being the cheapest is a bad idea and what it means for those of us that charge more. :-)
@@TheProfessionalCleaner will do.. thnx!
i want to start my business cleaning
So much potential out there! Get it!
Hi mam can you help me start cleaning work now i do cleaning in hotel but i wish i am start own bissnuess
Awesome! My program is a great place to start. You can learn more here... courses.theprofessionalcleaner.net/products/cba
Hi Bethany, how do I contact you?
My program is the best place to start... or shoot us an email support@theprofessionalcleaner.net :-) courses.theprofessionalcleaner.net/products/cba
I thought this was going to be a new video but it's the same as your last tips video
Yep... I am just a 'tad' better now on video LOL... so I wanted to remake it. :-) And hundreds of people a day search for this topic, so it's a video that makes sense to update. Thanks for your support! Some fresh videos coming soon!
What’s your cleaning business name?
I make that public to those that ask inside my program, but not here on TH-cam. It's just my preference for privacy. :-)
Hi from California, New Subscriber here. I’ve been in the process for a few months and launch my cleaning company in 2 weeks. I’m nervous because I had to learn how to quote and still not sure 🫤 I’m surprised that most won’t offer advice but it’s ok I’ll learn along the way. I know I got this 🙌
Keep it simple. Hourly rate x length of job. The hard part is learning the clean times and it would be hard to teach that in a TH-cam video. But in my program I do talk about this further, and then of course you get access to me in my private community for more bidding help. :-) You can learn more here... courses.theprofessionalcleaner.net/products/cba
@@TheProfessionalCleaner ok thank you 😊
@@moniquer437 You bet!
Good information
Thanks!
