I have never heard something like this before. I would just list the 'starting date' and let it go from there, if they have an issue with that let them tell you.

So I am assuming that it is by the end of the day

They have not included any other specifications related to the contract besides telling me that they all begin On july 1st, 2009

The outline you sent me was for 6 months....
Should I leave it open-ended?
Even if they do not give that infomation should I assume that it would be open ended contract?

---

We need to wrap this today/tonight... I have staff meetings most of tomorrow and will not be available.

Yes we do!
I have all night and will be home for the rest of the evening working on this

Did you receive my email about the format changing... eek :p

I'll have to check that out... :confused:

What page of the proposal?

{{{Ring...ring}}}}} Clean, are you there? Let's get started...

You can put all three buildings into one proposal,there is no need to recreate the wheel three times since it is the same P.M. for all three buildings... usually, unless the client specifically says that they want three separate proposals...

Show me what you have done so far please. I've an old man (hee hee) and I have been out in the yard working with my grandson all day... I am tired... and sore.

Stringer

All right lets tackle this!
All right question number one hehe
Under the clause
For who supplies what...
Would I charge them or the garbage bags... or would that be billed to them with the soaps TP and paper towels..?

They specified to me to create separate proposal... YIKES! More work for me ! "(

Under the part where it says my company will provide the materials... they stated to me that they wanted me to provide the paper towels.. toliet paper.. soaps... and woman fragrances...

Hehe I know how that is...
I have a 10 month old and he puts me to sleep every day lol
I will try to make this as quick as possible for you
"P
Do you want me to send you the contracts I've made so far?

I also had a question about
The frequency of the cleaning...
So I have to put in the contract the exact day of the cleaning?
I do have the information of how often... but not what day... *except on two of the propsals)

Yes, charge them for anything that you purchase that is a consumable product... but not your cleaning supplies and equipment... only liners, soaps, TP, PT, fem products (if in washrooms), toilet seat liners, etc... things as these.

These supplies are usually marked up by 10-15-20%... Give them a copy of the bill and add your mark-up with a grand total at the bottom. You spent your time and used your money to get these supplies.

Not much more if required... once you have the format... it is just a matter of pasting in the specifications and putting in your pricing for each.

Should I make a proposal for the building I do not want to clean??
Just in case they say it is required to submit for all three properties?

If they gave you a SPECIFIC list then put their list into that part of the proposal where it states what exactly you will supply.

YES, please.

UNder the charges section of the contract... I see that you put a section about carpet cleaning...
I have not offered these services( or have a industrial machine) yet to them nor they have asked...
Should I still keep that in there?
Same thing for the window cleaning?

Remember something Clean... you want to be as specific as possible, always. But not in all areas. If they were specific about which days per week then YES put that in the proposal, if they were not then you would simply state 'One day per week'. Then you can discuss this with them in person. ANYTHING that is written down in this proposal is part of the contract... legally (period). This is a serious matter, if )and I hope not) this all turns against you, things in this contract can and will be used against you if necessary.
