This week on Nation, we talk all about the differences in residential and route window cleaning. Now I know you are thinking to yourself, “Yeah, I know they are different.” But there is more to it than that; they are different in how they are sold, upsold, and cleaned. The frequency of cleaning the windows of a storefront versus a house is huge. But something as simple as why they buy is also different. You can't sell a home the same way you do a storefront. So, Let's talk about it! Track your Reviews with Nicejob! https://nicejob.partnerlinks.io/n3vwdaguk1uf Need supplies? Let me know! I would love to do that for you!

Today on Nation let's talk about your staff. maybe you don't have staff yet, and maybe you do, but its not structured. Building your business will 100% always include staff. If you are an owner operator with no staff, that is 100% fine. BUT you have a job, not a company. It's not about being the biggest (unless that is your goal) but it's about utilizing growth. Its being stronger, I would 100% rather have a super solid and strong company than one that i always feel is on the edge. So let's dive in! Need supplies? Let me know!
