    Hello s:

    Go out and knock on doors. MEET your prospects, and tell them that they can't do without your services...

    Start knocking on doors, cold calling, looking at internet sites, join a business to business program, OH and most likely be low bidder.

    What has been said is all true and very important. Also, get to know people, talk to everyone, join local business groups; BBB, Chambers, local government groups, social groups, etc. Let everyone know what you are doing, if they can't personally help you then chances are they know someone who will.

    Get out and see people, be excited about your company (it's 'catchy')

    Hello J:

    Hire an accountant.. He'll KNOW what licenses you need and where to get them.. Plus, he can set your books up right from the beginning. He's not going to charge much either at this point.

    Hello J:

    You go to city hall.. But, they'll SELL you licenses you DON'T need. You don't want to TRUST a bureaucrat for your legal advice, do you?? Look. I KNOW money is tight. But, I suggest this is one expense that will SAVE you money in the long run..

    Do you already have a cleaning company?

    Start slow with smaller companies and progress.
