    Cleaning bids
    I've had a cleaning business for going on 9 years and have had my ups and downs, I mostly cleaned vacant apt. and new construction. My husband and I were move out of state so I let most of my business contracts go but not all of our plans went well so we had to move back and now I have to start all over again. I am having a very hard time finding any work so now I am looking to clean offices but don't have a clue on how to bid on them! Can anyone help?

    Do you still have your 'old' company MS? Or do you have to incorporate again?

    Will it be only you and your husband doing the cleaning?

    Please tell me what area of the country that you are located.

    I am sorry to be giving you questions but it will give us a starting point...

    If it will be only you and your husband doing the cleaning then I suspect that you will be looking for mid sized or smaller offices, am I correct?

    If you are looking to advertise then we have an person whose expertize is web advertising and I am sure that he would be willing to help all he can. HI name is Clough and I will let him know of your thread.

    Please answer my questions, so we may proceed... thanks.

    Hi, mscleaner409!

    Stringer has summoned me to your thread. We will be glad to work with you for how you could develop your business again. But, please do respond to the questions that we ask.

    In addition to the questions that Stringer has asked, my first question is, do you still have the lists of the people for whom you used to do cleaning?

    Thanks!
