Hi all!
We are just launching our own comapny! My partner has been in the Indsutry for over 20 years (even owning his own succesful Industrial cleaning company before- however a shame about his business partner choice which saw it all come to an end!)
He has been an Area Manager (mixed hands on and office) for two very large companies - the last one he left in Jan where he ran their bloody company but when he refused to work 24/7 - and i mean that literally they tried to get rid of him (yep tribunal dates are set).
It's just tripped us into going hammer and nail at our own business! Both companies would not have the clients or stature in their branches they lost in the first place if it were not for him, b ig names do not always mean quality service do they?.
We do not do office cleaning or the like, (kitchens, vents and ducting, factories etc)
I'm now very excited only thing we have to do is get out there and make ourselves known! At the moment deciding on what advert to use for yell.com - do any of you find these as useful as you thought! Other than that it's phoning around potential customers who we know are not ahppy with their existing service - then trawling through companies, leaflet drops etc.
Any other marketing tips you'd advise?

Thanks for the welcomes
Confined Spaces, Deep Cleaning, Ventilation Cleaning, Clinical Cleans and Industrial, Factories etc (high levels, high risk etc etc). We've NEVER been involved with office cleaning and there are sooooo many of these in our area. Heard that they all try their hand at other things but there isn't anyone with the right standards and experience locally to carry it through succesfully - so only Industrial services for us! .... iyswim.
Already have a website, that i have designed myself but thanks for the offer ;D
