Product Description

Synopsis

This work details the steps that should be taken by anyone wishing to start a cleaning business with no knowledge whatsoever of the cleaning industry. It is also recommended for anyone wishing to branch out into contract-cleaning from a related occupation, for example window-cleaning. David Walkiden started his contract cleaning business in 1982, which he has run successfully since. The text is factual and informative and contains many useful, practical tips. Chapters include sections on choosing a name, finance, transport, where to seek potential customers, possible services to offer and how to approach prospects. Recruitment and management of staff are considered in detail.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good entry level guide, 3 Dec 2002
This book covers all the aspects of contract cleaning. Though, it does not go into great details, it certainly gets you off to a start. The author has certainly been in the business, as only first hand experience can produce the sort of insights he gives in this well written "little" book. It even includes a sample letter of introduction you can send off to prospective clients. Well done Walkiden!
