What is the biggest challenge to your business right now?
The Cleaner replied to Beth n Rod's topic in Business Topics & Tips
Hope that helps out, we have been doing this alot of years but never seen it this bad. -
Hydrant and a 2 1/2 inch drop hose. That is the only way to go with a job of this size.

We did a bunch of them one time in the Tampa Bay area of FL on the promise that they would sign a contract after they see our work. They just wanted them all cleaned up because they were so bad, of course no contract..go fiqure..

same here, i have a half page ad in the yellow book. I wont do that again, it cost me $650.00 per month to be in the Tampa Bay area of Florida.I have got a bad response with very little calls.Most of my calls were from other small companies looking for pricing so they can under cut me !!I do well in the homeowners associations monthly newsletter for $50.00 a month GO Fiqure!!We do alot of commercial accounts on a regular basis, i tried it out to see what kind of response i would get, well it did not work for me..

10-4 to that!! They have some unreal expectations.I was looking thru all the paperwork and they said that they would give me a 48 hour notice before they came to my place of buisness and looked thru my books, I dont think soooo!!!

We have had our share of cold weather lately.We do 80% of our clients at night.I think we had it down in the low 30's with a 15 to 20 mile an hour wind. Thats cold for florida, i know that you guy's up north have it bad and i dont miss it, the best thing about florida is that these cold spurts only last a few days, then back to sunny and warm..

I would never refer anyone, unless i have seen his work, or he has done work for me in the past.And depending on the refferal there would be some compensation for me. just my 2 cents..

Heres one that got me alot of work !! Attn:Property managers: Clean your filthy complexs, are you a bunch of animals or what !! If i have to look at that $hit on your roof another season i will have to report you to the PWNA and they will come out here and make you wish you had hired me. Being the kind of company we are, I will let you off easy with a warning this time, and only charge you a small fine on top of the cleaning price.We suggest you contact all the managers in this area and fill them in on this problem. Thank you and dont worry about calling us, we will come see you.. Regards Vinnie Goombats

This is a good topic. I get approched every single night i am out, soon as i turn on the geneator and my lights kick on.All of a sudden they come out of the woods or out from under a rock. I got so sick of it that i went and got myself, and trained a great dog.This was the best success i have found, no one will come any where near us.Most of the time these people are harmless hobo's or just strung out drunk's. But i have run in to a few that will not take no for an answer, and this is where it can get real ugly.We do alot of work in some undesireable locations and although i am leagally armed to protect my workers and myself, sometimes you dont hear them approach or even see them because of the engines running and the blarring lights. So with DUKE on guard ther is no more problems.

All you need to do is work with us.!! We are the best in the business.!! I dont think there is one company out there that does anything the same way.Knowlege in this business comes in time, we have been at it for 15 years.We have done everything from a 4 story prison to a 1 car driveway,and still there is more to learn. I think that you would do well with any one of the vet's on this board, and in time you will fall into your own grove of doing things.As time goes on you will learn all the do's and dont's and most important ,keeping a high degree of integrity in any and all job's you put your name on..

Here are a few.. -
I love my crimson trace laser sights !! on my small light hammerless S&W 357 magnum !! Once you zero this laser in , it is dead on.I highly recommend them especially if you do alot of night work as we do.Just putting that dot on someones chest is all that is needed in most cases,almost like racking a shell into a 12 gauge pump !!! We work in some pretty $hitty areas around Tampa Florida.We were actually right in the middle of a take down at a Lakeland florida walgreens we were cleaning.Some escapees were at the 24 hour location in a stolen car when all hell broke loose.So yea $hit happens when you least expect it.So i always say ,better be prepared to defend yourself and your workers at all times.LAL (Lock and Load)!!!

A great first defence is a well trained dog. Most people wont even come near me or my guys when Duke is on the job.Second is my 357 revolver with laser sight's..I have a consealed pistol permit here in florida,and thanks to Jeb Bush its getting easier to shoot the bad guys without alot of Bull$hit involved..
