What is LEED and Why Should Cleaning Companies Learn More About It? By Steve Hanson
Companies and businesses
across the country are becoming more environmentally
conscious and many are starting to adopt LEED standards
and protocols. LEED stands for Leadership in
Environmental Design. The US Green Building Council, a
nonprofit organization, which is working to promote
buildings that are environmentally responsible, launched
the LEED rating system. The overall goal of the program
is to make the places we live in and work at become
healthier environments. There are two classifications
for LEED; one for existing buildings - LEED-EB and one
for new construction - LEED-NC.
Have you ever stopped and thought "Why are There So Many Cleaning Companies"? You know, there really are not that many. But when you take into account how many of them do the "This Months Name" routines then it gives the appearance of Cleaning Company Overload.
In the cleaning business your name and reputation is
really all that you have. So many cleaning companies
continually change their names to stay in business. I
have noticed that when companies start getting
reputations for lack of and poor service they change
their names. What people have to realize is the name is
not the problem. It is those in the business behind the
company name. Those running the business is the problem.
Same slick salespersons using the same old sales pitches
with New Business Cards. Cash and Dash or Trash and Dash
for Cash are my terms for the attitudes of these
companies. The Names change but the people stay the same.
So the nature of how they do business never changes. But
why should it matter to them? It's just a name. While
you have paid thousands of dollars to fund their 'Trash n
Dash' programs. All it cost them is the price of
purchasing New Business Cards and Letterhead.
At Century we do very little advertising. Our customers are the best advertising we have. They refer us to business associates and friends. We have even had customers go to meetings and refer us to their competitors. If you look around your office and feel as if you could "Not" refer your current cleaners to someone you know. Then you need to contact us today. The only name change in our future is changing the name of your cleaning company to Century. Give us a call and let's talk about putting Century to work for you.
