    Getting business and doing a good job is everything rigStarter.

    The best way to get new business in my opinion is personal contact although there are many other ways also. Dress up for the part, go visit all the businesses and homes in your business area. Talk to them, ask them to bid on their building/s and homes. The more people you see the better.

    Also talk to everyone... everyone. Let them know what you are doing. They may also know of a business that is bidding their work out. Give the person that told you a finder's fee if you get the contract, say 10% of the first months' billing.

    Go on line and Google "Cleaning contracts", "Janitorial contracts", etc there are plenty of examples for you to peruse. You can also go to the "Search" bar on this site AMHD and search for the same items.
