The Yellow Pages may give the impression that the market is saturated with cleaning firms. But less than 30 % of all installed carpet is ever professionally cleaned. Here's another statistic to think about. More than 80% of the cleaners listed in the yellow pages use voice mail to answer their calls and of those who advertise elsewhere, a majority use cheap room pricing.
These are definite advantages to anyone who advertises prudently and answers their phone. Indeed, it is a great time to start a carpet, hard floor and furniture cleaning business for another reason, too. Traditionally, this business improves during recessionary periods and according to the media we are in one of those now.
A cleaning service can be a successful, profitable endeavor no matter when you start it if you do your homework first. Get a head start by spending three days at Bane-Clene Institute to learn from people who have been in the cleaning business for forty-seven years.
