![]() Hi jeckstone,
LindaC here. You say you would like to start your own cleaning company but, what you don't say is what kind of cleaning company you would like to start. Examples: house/apartment cleaning, window cleaning (believe it or not) there is a difference. So, bottom line..you may receive more help if you provide more information as to what type of cleaning company you want to be involved in. My Best 2 U, LindaC |

![]() Thanks Jecks,
Because I have friends and consulting clients who have already done what you want to do. Start your own Cleaning Biz. AND Because I had to learn the Cleaning Aspects of the Janitorial business in a Week. Perhaps I can Entertain you with a few Successful Ideas. FIRST - My friend Nathanial. He took a job at a University as a Janitorial Supervisor. Borrowed their best trained employees to do higher paid jobs - AFTER WORK - like carpet shampoo of the halls in a Highrise Building. Or Use a High Speed Buffer to strip off old wax and put on new wax in Lobbies and Large wood and linoleum floored areas. Out of his own pay he bought a used Buffing Machine. Clever I thought. I've since visited other colleges and Universities. MANY of the BEST Janitors and Managers MoonLight. They make MORE Munny Part time than they do in their 40 hr a week jobs. ---------- SECOND - I was Maintenance Supervisor (Briefly becuz I got promoted) for the Housing Dept at a large University. During the summer months (No Students) Chem-lawn was paid 150K to come in and Shampoo - Clean 1000's of Apts and dorm rooms, hallways too. My boss had his budget cut. And the Housekeeping Supervisor Quit. So my SOB Boss decided to save DOUBLE. He called me into his office. And GAVE ME The Housekeeping Supervisors Job! Plus George said, "Go out and buy the equipment you need to clean all the apartments and dorm rooms yourself. And cross train your current employees to use it. DISMISSED." #1 - I got paid a lot of overtime that next year. #2 - In ONE WEEK - I watched the Universities collection of Janitorial Training Videos. #3 - THEN I found out which employees ALREADY used the complex Expensive Equipment. Used them to train the rest. #4 - AND I explained to my Janitorial staff - that when they decided to moon-light for extra pay on weekends. Or find a new job. They'd earn more because they had carpet cleaning and buffer skills. ========== So. YOU Might Take a Cleaning job to learn the basic skills. Watch your boss to learn to manage people. Volunteer to work Weekends and nights. (Most college Janitorial Supervisors Have lucrative side businesses.) AND once you have their Trust. Watch or rent all the Janitorial Training videos you want. HINT - They are SO EXPENSIVE no library will have them. Thanks, Glenn Osborn P.S. - Oh yeah. And since you will be working day and night while you learn.
