Whats your advice on switching from tradituonal cleaning to wfp in order for one to grow said business.
What advice can you give on RO and water storage or van pay loads and suitable in van installation or diy system. Whats the best poles to use and the brushes and should one go for hot or cold system.
Then should one purchase a round based on what advice or pay someone to canvass and perhaps not like the results of either.
Should one invest in a web page or design one themselves? What about the best investment with insurance or even better whos the best accountant to see who will help me expand by saving money.
Could you possibly start with answering some of these questions and then people can see if you have any credentials to help them grow this type of business???
insurance- insurance idefinitely a yes to have. you are covered and having copies freely available to customers and businesses shows professionalism and is easy to obtain trust of residential and commercial customers. Searching around online, becoming part of federations/ professional groups offer good brokers and packages. the cost varies as you know as to what you want covered. I used a independent company for a few years which were cheaper until certain changes to policy meant a company found with simply business cost a few hundred less for the same policy.
round purchase- I would not really suggest anyone to buy a round unless to start. perhaps one they have worked in for a while and know routes customers etc. I am offering something different, canvassing and brand awareness one to one with owners managers. i always believe that if your business and strategies are good then you will grow at the rate you want. I would probably suggest a few different ways to go about taking on canvassed or another round. the best accountant is not really a thing to worry about. you have to pick one. preferably local to you for access to them. if you are a million£ business then different options further afield maybe needed. you can always change or seek a second opinion if something doesn't seem correct and most will offer initial meetings free. you are not tied to them.
polesystem- I would not necessarily advise either way for a small business to move from ladder to pole system or vice versa. just use the techniques and tools you want to get the job done correct. I have seen many use pole system with poor quality and traditional too. some with vast expensive equipment and quick set ups. Both have there bad days when not used correctly, some businesses more often than others. the point I will be pushing is about intent, decency and going over proper techniques to maximize customer satisfaction.
with regaurd to pole systems I do not have the information about the high tech / high spec equipment that would be somewhere that they would need to check out themselves after I have helped them reached to that point.
the skills I have are customer service, mental focus and brand package building as I have done for my own window cleaning business recently.
van pay load will be worked out using certain elements such as van size, water amounts, etc.
I have only recently used resin filters which worked excellently and I'm sure RO systems the same for many others. the proof is in the work and business ethic.
