Hello Octoclean. I really like your videos. I started my janitorial service last year out here in Sacramento, CA. I have been going door to door to get accounts. It has been brutal. At this point I have been to about 200 businesses, done about 12 bids, and I have nothing. No accounts. It just seems like everybody already has a janitorial service and they just don't need me. I have been to dental offices, medical facilities, small school, business offices, salons, banks, dealerships, funeral homes, construction companies, apartment leasing offices, military recruiters, and many more that I can't think of. I just can't see how anyone can get started in this business. I have previous sales experience, so door to door feels natural to me. I currently work as janitor for another business and I have been told that I do great work. However, if nobody needs a cleaning business it doesn't matter. I can't figure out how people do it.
This is an excellent question, one that will be addressed in a video sometime soon. One of our upcoming podcasts also discusses this topic in detail. So keep an eye out for that!
@@OctoCleanMedia That sounds great. I will keep an eye out for the videos. Btw, I got my first account!!! It's a 2200 sq ft salon, only 5 blocks from where I live. I think it will be a great first account. I'm so glad to finally get something.
@@alexgadbois1916 Congrats! Great to hear you were finally able to get a contract. Just starting out but now I can prepare myself to hit 200+ doors and not be discouraged if I don’t get a contract right off the bat. Good luck!
@@oscarmercado4639 Thanks! After many months of getting nothing, I wound up getting 3 accounts in the same month. Good luck to you!
How do you price a facility that includes a library area and some common areas which need cleaning 7 days a week, while also having a school that needs to be cleaned according to the school schedule?
Do you have the client sign a contract ? Not just a cleaning bid agreeing to pay the price you ask but if they want a regular company every week or binweekly etc. I feel like this would help so you do not get your jobs stolen by employees. I realize employees can be made to sign a contract they cannot take jobs but it could happen and you wouldn’t know so it seems if you can get a customer to sign a contract that renews every six months to a year and complaints put into writing then it seems that would be the best way to not loose jobs via competitors ? But is this standard ? I have not found an answer to this
Yes, all of our customers sign an agreement that outlines the terms of doing business with us. This includes our cancellation policy, etc. We are launching some exciting things soon, one being our Sales Toolkit that includes a templated agreement modeled after our own. Keep an eye out for it. We will announce the launch to YouTub.
Very Helpful advice
When will you come to Nevada?
You'll see us at the ISSA show in November 😉
Regarding franchising, there is a lot of research and development that goes into the process before we can officially break ground in a new territory. Nevada is our neighbor state so maybe some time in the near future!
🎉 great video and tips
Excellent advice, all of it!
I’m probably the one that has made it the most viewed lol!
Lol!! This is a great video, Matt is very excited to share this content.
Thank you!
