Okay-
Here is the deal. I have a commercial bid that I just sent. It is a glue down commercial grade carpet with a couple of soda spills. The layout is pretty easy to work with. There will be no HWE only encap. since it is on the 6th floor in San Francisco. I bid for a one time cleaning which was $.20 sq/ft for 4,000 feet and the other bid was for a maintenance program at $.12 sq/ft for 4,000 feet which includes 3 cleanings in a year.
The problem that I am having is how to answer the question that I know they will ask about the price difference per cleaning ($480 compared to $800). Other then telling them that it will take time, labor and solution where with the maintenance program the cleanings will get easier the second and third time. What else can I say?
