10 things you need to do to get started with your cleaning business.

 

 

1.Decide on a Trade name, register said trade name with secretary of state. What that does is hold’s your place for 5 years ( it’s 5 years in Arizona) until you decide to make your trade name a legal entity.

 

2.Get a Tax ID number, known as a EIN.  This is free!
 here is link: https://www.irs.gov/businesses/small-businesses-self-employed/apply-for-an-employer-identification-number-ein-online

You don’t want your SS# sitting around on someone’s desk

Ein’s are usually for life. 

 

3.Decide on what business entity your want to use for your cleaning Business.

 

Most people start as a sole-proprietor and I didn’t make myself and LLC until I paid cash for my house. 

There is also Corp and S-corp.

4.Do you have any seed money? How are you going to finance your way? In the Cleaning industry it’s a low buy in to get started.

2023 we will see 55 thousand new cleaning business entrepreneurs coming aboard in the United States.

5. Decide if you are going to be Natural or Regular Chemicals Cleaning Company or even a hybrid of both

6. Get a logo for the back of your work vehicle

    Check with your state to make sure it's legal

    Usually it is a $300-$400 investment

7.Scope out thrift stores or yard sales to find vacuums if you don’t have one that you can use for work. 

8. What kind of gear are you going to carry?

9.Get policies in place for smooth running shifts?
