Pressure Washing Companies, Auto Detailing Firms and Mobile Car Washers who have been in business for a while and are following all of the environmental rules, have proper insurance and have the labor to keep up intensive scheduling should consider rental car corporations as potential clientele. They pay on time and have more than a lot of work to keep a company business. So it makes sense when considering niches to look at this sub-sector in fleet washing, as it is good to get the larger checks each month.Small independent pressure washing, car washing and mobile detailing companies will not be able to have these markets because the Rent-A-Car agencies will need a company with the proper image, appearance and attitude to be doing work on their property along with the proper background checks (for airport locations) and environmental iss

"Manage from the bottom up; not just from the top down; this creates personal commitment and accountability." - Bryce's LawINTRODUCTIONA couple of months ago we started a free service to analyze a person's style of management. Through our "Bryce Management Analysis," a manager answers a series of questions (30 in all) and, based on his responses, we produce a report which assesses his style of management as well as other attributes.The data collected from these surveys has confirmed a lot of my suspicions; that companies are regressing back to a Theory X form of management. Over the last twenty years we have witnessed a dramatic swing from a Theory Y or Z form of management, back to Theory X. Whereas workers used to be empowered to make decisions and tackle assignments (a la Theory Y or Z), managers t
One could argue without too much difficulty that buying a window cleaning franchise is simply a waste of money, after all you could simply go down to be 99 cents store and by a bucket 3 towels and a squeegee and hey, you are in business right? Well one could argue that, since to really be in business, you probably need to get a business license, insurance, buy some business cards and make a few flyers. Then you need to hit the street and drum up some business, of course this is not too awfully hard, but it is not all that easy either. Over the past two decades I have known many small startup window-cleaning people who have lasted a few months at most.
What I find interesting about it is that every single one comes in with such vigor and excitement ready to take on the world. When they leave and quit business they do so for an array of excuses yet still they will swear that would not have been any different had they bought a window cleaning franchise. My answer to that is hogwash. We take someone who's been a business 25 years and we show you had a do that business, do you honestly think that you or me or anyone for that matter can go down to the 99 cents store buy a few products of the trade, get some business cards and flyers and do as well as someone with 25-years experience? A franchise can show you a business plan with all of the mistakes that they have made in all those 25 years built out of the business model?

You may have an ad that’s barely holding it’s own and not even know it. But there is a simple test. Make a copy and ask for feedback from employees, friends, relatives and total strangers. In fact, the last group is best because they will be the most honest. If you have a store, it’s pretty easy. Post the ad at the front counter and ask your customers to fill out a form explaining you need to find out what they would change in the ad in exchange for 10% off their next purchase. Therefore, assuming they gave their response, you now know that everyone hates your headline. So what do you do?First, realize why they disliked it. Did you just put your name out there, big and bold? Shame on you. Unless you’re Wal-Mart or Microsoft, how important is Smith Carpet Cleaning? Or, are you “Qualified,” or “Low-Cost,” or “Reliable,” like everyone else?

Whether you are just starting a new business or need a cash infusion, the idea of selling an ownership interest will come to mind at some point. The question is whether this is a good idea or not.A business is in many ways the realization of a dream. Instead of working to put money in the pocket of someone else, you are doing it for yourself. Hopefully, you are also starting a business in a field that you find incredibly interesting. As the old saying goes, work in a field you love and you will not feel like you are working. If you can meet this goal, the money will follow sooner or later.As with many things, running a business comes with a unique set of issues that have to be addressed. Sooner or later, one of those problems will be your cash flow. You may be going through a rough patch and need funds to get you through a slow co

Sales organizations live by growth. And Sales Growth is measured by sales revenue. If you want to know how to increase sales revenue…there are only three ways to do it:1. Increase the number of new sales2. Increase the amount per sale3. Increase the frequency of sales per accountIf you look at the first step in increasing our revenue, you see it involves finding new sales. How do we do that? We set more appointments. In other words, you must start your sales process more often over a week, month and year.Now you can do that one of two ways. You can call on more people or you can convert more initial conversations to appointments. The second is the only way to do it without killing yourself. And that is the focus of this workshop.Before we get into that I want to go over a very simple (but very importan

Wal-Mart is one of the biggest employers in the U.S. If you are considering a job with Wal-Mart, then you will need to fill out an application online. While there are a number of websites out there telling you that you that the Wal-Mart online job application is a myth, it really does exist, and you need to know how to fill it out correctly.You need to begin by going to the Wal-Mart Career website, so you will need access to a a computer. It is okay if you do not have a computer, as you can fill out the application from your local library or at one of the kiosks in the store. If you are looking for a professional position with Wal-Mart, though, you should not fill out the Wal-Mart online job application. Instead you will be given another address where you can send your resume.You then need to register with your own ID and pa
I have heard people argue against franchising and I know little bit about. I have heard people brag to me about how great they are and how they can do anything. I myself have even thought that, but really be honest; fact is that nothing good life is easy, it never has been, it never will be, that is not good or bad it just it is. I applaud the startup entrepreneur, I applaud the street vendor, I applaud Donald Trump in his new reality show for making those contestants go out into the street and sell lemonade. The open market and free enterprise that you'll learn from doing can not be taught in schools, it often Fries me to listen to M.B.A. students tell me how great they are, greatnesses does not come from saying; it comes from doing, it comes from perseverance dedication commitment and strength of character.
It does not come from reading chapters in paragraphs in textbooks that were written 40 years the prior and re-edited every decade or regurgitated with the latest buzzwords. No my friends you cannot learn about free enterprise by reading the teachings of Karl Marx in Das Capital. Likewise you cannot understand the writings in the novel Fountainhead or when Atlas shrugged or any short story, lecture or novel by Ayn Rand. I do not claim to be a know-it-all in all areas of the free market. I realize there is always more to learn to fully understand free markets; you must participate in them. Elliot Spitzer has no business crying “foul” over the shenanigans of Martha Stewart, he clearly does not understand. Greenspan on the other hand did participate in free markets after he had finished college.
