This is a good idea.
If you're on the way out you might as well try to get something out of it.

My replay is quite forward, Oh are you looking to go in house with your cleanings. We could sell you any equipment you need and train your staff It will only cost you ZXY. I Then just shut up and go about my business, two things happen either they are intending to go in house, now make money off them going in house and possible keep the relationship going just in case they find out this is not for them. They were just curious and now they find the cost too much.
Sooner or later some accounts may purchase equipment to either help them out some in between your cleanings or to replace you

Tell them to spend $800 on a Kirby, after they try it once and see how long it takes, they will call you back.
