What has fueled your company’s growth?: “A dedication and commitment to providing exceptional, consistent customer service. Unfortunately, our industry has many companies who make promises, but cut corners and don’t deliver. Our professionalism, high standards and desire for long term relationships with our customers set us apart from other companies.”
What is the biggest obstacle to your company’s growth?: “While the economy has improved some, many companies are still making short term decisions based solely on price. While we remain competitive in the market, we don’t “low bid” just to get work. This may mean slower growth as we identify customers we fit best with, and who recognize the value that we bring – customers who are looking for a long term, professional solution to their cleaning needs.”
What is your company’s most important growth strategy right now?: “Stay true to the ethical business practices our company was founded on and continue to seek customers who fit with our core philosophy.”
