📘 The Commercial Cleaning Walkthrough System
Every cleaning contract gets won or lost in the first fifteen minutes of the walkthrough — not the proposal, not the price. This book gives you the exact system we use to walk any facility and leave with everything you need for an accurate bid: what to measure, what to ask, what red flags mean you should reprice or walk away, and how to turn your notes into a bid that actually holds up.
Includes facility-type playbooks, a red-flag decision tree, a bid-building worksheet, and printable field tools for every chapter.
Based on 20 years in the commercial cleaning industry, including 7 years running our own business.
