I'm new at this and I've only done residential... I was contacted by a property manager and I have someone going out today to look at the property. Here is what I know so far. It's 9 streets, 350 townhomes, 20 acres. They want the waste stations maintained, common areas cleaned and any litter on the streets picked up. How would you go about developing a quote for that??? Any ideas??? You should be able to issue a quote after asking yourself these questions: How much do you make per hour doing residential work? How long will this commercial job take? Who buys the bags for the waste stations? How many competitors do you have that may bid against you on the job? I'd be cautious about the "litter" clause. That may be very time consuming, and could include everything from gum wrappers and cigarette butts to dead cats, tree branches, sheets of plywood dropped off a truck. Find out exactly what they expect. |

Now might be the ideal time to ramp up. This would give you the fall and winter to build awareness and start to pick up customers so you can have a chance to work out any procedural issues before you jump into spring cleaning with both feet. (Just remember to watch where you put them...)

Thanks for your replies. It helps to know that it also took others a while before landing their first clients. I guess it will just take some trial and error of advertising before I find what works for me.

It was and I finally got to see it. What a hoot! I liked the jump-suit, ATV and vac rig. Somehow, I can't see it being very practical.
Thanks for posting the schedule. |
