Cleaning services are required in virtually any business. Sure a company might be able to clean its own building while it is small, but a successful company will grow, and eventually become a corporate entity. At that time, they will be seeking professional cleaning services, and it is at this time that you can offer your own comprehensive packages.
Nighttime Cleaning: Larger companies, such as those who own huge skyscrapers will typically require some type of nighttime cleaning. This will involve a cleaning crew entering the building after hours, cleaning the carpets, buffing the floors, and even tackling the bathrooms. This can be a difficult job in some of the larger office buildings, but it pays quite well.
Break Cleaning: All employees till take a break at some point, and in many companies a lunch break will involve the entire staff actually taking a break. During this time the company will often require the assistance of a cleaning service, and that cleaning service could very well be you!
Butcher Shops: Are you familiar with the process and the disposal requirements of cleaning a butcher shop? If so then you can be rest assured that a meat company will be more than happy to hire you either on breaks or for the end of the day cleanup.
Why would they Hire You?
This is definitely a good question! After all, a company should be able to clean up after itself. There is a strong chance that a company simply does not want to clean up, and with good reason. After all, who wants to pay their employees overtime for this reason? Larger buildings can take a rather long time to clean, and no one really wants to be stuck in the middle of that. If you have a cleaning crew ready and willing to take care of this need, then you most certainly have yourself a job!
Services to Offer
You can offer any number of services to your clients, for instance you could cover the bathrooms, kitchen areas, and even hallways. In addition to that it might be a good idea to make sure you provide images of the cleaned areas to the client so that they do not actually have to leave their desk. This is very helpful to the client, especially during a busy work day.
As you can see, running a cleaning service can be quite profitable, and soon enough you will find yourself offering a necessary service to many companies both large and small. Who knows? In a short amount of time you could be making a very respectable profit! It is impossible to tell just what might happen, especially in the cleaning industry.
