Residential work has been great for us. Pays the bills, brings us exciting challenges (pet stains, traffic lances, you name it) but I enjoy commercial cleaning most of all.
I am grateful.
As it stands commercial work accounts for maybe 30% of our business. I'd like to flip that around next year and have a bulk of our work be commercial with some residential.
I don't mid working at night, we get the most repeats from commercial work (a lot of our residential are move outs or people that seem to have their carpets cleaned way too infrequently) I love the straight forward work of commercial and I'd also like to build auxiliary services like janitorial, office cleaning, etc.
I'm assuming (yes, a dangerous thing to assume....) that most of you here are doing primarily commercial.
What are the best steps to building commercial work?
Most of what we get now is Google which is awesome, but I'd like to be more proactive.
Postcards? Letters? Phone calls?
Thanks in advance for the feedback guys!
