Grant 500 Report post Posted December 10, 2005 Welcome to the new association. Hopefully they will utilize the history of other organizations to shorten their learning curve. Does this mean another BBS? Will it have access to all or only club members? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted December 10, 2005 Ask them. They may not even be thinking about that at this time though. It would not surprise me at all, if this is not on the to-do list at this point in time. I'm sure more info will be coming very soon though. Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beth n Rod 1,279 Report post Posted December 11, 2005 I think we can expect a different approach in this org as it is comprised of vendors instead of contractors according to the contact information. I could be mistaken but no matter, they are encompassing a larger segment of contract related cleaners. Beth had this same sort of idea some time back but it was never acted upon while she was on the pwna bod. I am glad to see that others can think out of the box and embrace the diversities. The benefit of a making them a whole community is a good one from the concept outlined in the 3rd and 4th paragraphs as I take it. Talk about anxious to hear more...

M Hinderliter 64 Report post Posted December 13, 2005 Good Morning, I wanted to take this opportunity to inform the industry about the formation of *****, United Association of Mobile Contract Cleaners. *****, was formed because we believe there is a growing demand from mobile contractor cleaners to expand their services into other markets. We envision this to be an excellent venue for contractors to: 1) Network to create other trade affiliation, for example a power washer can find a widow cleaner, carpet cleaner, janitorial service, etc. and they refer work back and forth to each other. 2) Receive education 3) Expand into new service areas. ***** is not an industry specific trade association. We welcome all mobile contract cleaners and the trade association for those industries. We expect to create alliance with the all the trade groups that will beneficial to their growth. Specifically, we view ***** to be a complementary association to all the trade groups, including PWNA. Michael Hinderliter Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
