Today I am working on an SOP for cleaning commercial office buildings. I can't afford to sign up for process street at the moment, anybody have any good resources or tools?

I have a former coaching client who came up with a cool idea. She suggested that I create a pricing challenge with this community. I'd create a fictional (or maybe even a real) scenario, throw it out to this group, and see who gets closest to that price. It wouldn't be reward-based since we all can come up with a price and we all could be correct provided the price is profitable. But this way we could work through a price together and see how we each do things differently based on our pricing strategy.

I need my butt kicked in winning new business. Anyone open to a friendly action-based challenge to bring in more clients in the month of November?

Has anyone used a gloss meter to determine if a floor needs to be stripped? How does work? Is it good?

Hi Everyone! I just wanted to throw this out there in case it's helpful to others. I attended a SBA & APEX Accelerator collaboration workshop today and it was very informative. Most people look at these and associate it with government contracts and even though the APEX side of it is, the SBA side is extremely helpful to small businesses for things like on site conference rooms you can use if you don't have a brick and mortar space but want to do something like hold interview, to staff that can help with your financial plans, business growth, marketing plans and your business pitches. Best of all is that it's a resource that is free and you can schedule appointments with them as much as you would like. Also, if you get a chance to attend one of these I recommend you go, great place to learn about other types of contracts and certifications available as well as a way to network with other small business owners.
