great thread. i have had a lot of jan/san conrtactors ask for our card while we are CC'ing the offices they service...none have ever called me.
over the years i've googled our local jan/san companies and last year 1 finally bit. i had sub'ed a small T&G job to him years ago so knew his name at least. we worked it out so that i would refer him to any of my clients for janitorial work, if he would refer me for any CC'ing requests from his clients. i even will pay him 10% of the 1st CC'ing. i referred him to a decent sized client (20k sq.ft. facility) we had just picked up, but he never called the owner back lol. then he used me one time a week later for a small (minimum charge) client of his. we haven't spoken since. i should call him i reckon!
i generally dislike any type of these deals, i prefer to find clients on my own. then no problems can arise. but maybe i am just paranoid...i need to consider this again. tx for the thread BRFC!
