DTM – Dump the MIDDLE-men!

WHEN you can, IF you can  – Dump the MIDDLEmen.

And, who are these MIDDLEmen?

They’re the national management outfits (NMO’s) who see their job as little more than landing big accounts at discount prices – and then as fast as possible subbing out the ‘in the trenches’ work of cleaning to local janitorial businesses  – in deals providing insufficient cleaning hours or profit for the sub!

They’re the franchises who forget to offer real support to franchisees but somehow – never forget to collect royalties!

They’re the online retailers entering the ‘on-demand services’ market who provide little more than a place  for consumers to find and schedule cleaning – for a ridiculously hefty fee!

Ok, I’ll reluctantly grant you.. not all NMO’s, franchises or ‘online, on-demand services sites –  are bad.

But, here’s the thing.

1) Being the primary contact to clients, 2) holding the contract and 3) having the full operational control of the job – are the KEYS to delivering pride and financial reward to the cleaning business owner.

Increasingly, the HOLDING of those ‘KEYS’ by local, independent cleaning business owners – is in jeopardy.

I know, DTM – ‘Dump the MIDDLEmen – may sound harsh’, but, hopefully it sends a ‘clear warning’ to cleaning business owners to:

Discover or if necessary, re-discover, the importance of finding, landing and managing cleaning contracts – on their own.

You Can Do This, You REALLY Can!
