A legand already .
What was your biggest failure?Was your biggest regret..
Switching to another method or machine?
Adding additional steps that no one noticed?
Changing up your pricing from SF to room or vice versa
Hiring or not hiring techs?
Going green or anti allergin?
Trying to get bulletin board prices in Pecan Falls Georgia?
I'd love to hear from @CJ-FL on this...

I'm $50 a room two room min.Switching from per room to sqft, made a huge difference. It made me measure!
Per room I'd just make shat up, ohh this looks like a 35$ room. Noooooo!
Now those rooms are often 50 plus.
Yeah, sometimes, I miscount too.I'm $50 a room two room min.
Just cleaned 7 rooms and a set of stairs that I count as a room for $500 with protector on stairs and entrance 4 hours. Moved most furniture too.
One room I counted as two.
It was big lol could've been 3.Yeah, sometimes, I miscount too.
You would've been a grand before the move.Bob Foster.
I know a guy who put a bid in on pressure washing a parking lot... 450$.... he wants to split it with me , 60/40..... I would make 180$. I went and looked at it, the fookin thing is the size of 2 football fields... I called him back, told him I’m NOT interested.... and that I’ll see him in a week.... maybe, that’s if he’s working 10hr days.... moron... probably bid it at 1-2 cents a Sqft.....Switching from per room to sqft, made a huge difference.

Problem is Steve, he bought his pressure washer at a discount store. I think it’s rated at 2000 psi. The one I’ve got is a 13 hp Honda motor rated at 5000 psi... who do you think is going to end up doing most of the work?We have a street sweeping company here that charges less than I do. $75 an hour.

Ok here’s the thing your room price was to low!I went to room pricing instead of my normal sq ft pricing. I’m a numbers guy and know what my truck cost to run down to the minute. After 2 months our gross revenue per hour was down 19% which means at the end of the year our net would be down much further because now we had to do far more work with more overhead to reach the same numbers. I went back to sq ft and the money came back in. Yeah, its harder to explain over the phone, but we stay busy and the money is so much better in sq ft pricing.
