Glad it was helpful!

[@TrsB85]

I agree with needing to send it a few times. As a sender, I want to think my first one will catch their eye immediately. But as a receiver of postcards and mailers, I'll admit they get tossed quickly. However-- I've seen one come through my house a few times for a bookkeeping service, and now I'm actively waiting for the next one so I can remember who is offering it.

[@carolynarellano]

YES !! Persistency is key. We want to stay on top of the minds of all of our potential clients. Although they might not need us know they will ONE DAY !

[@emilskarklins9563]

Hi, loved the video! i have a question. When you find the decision maker and you have a direct phone number, should you call and ask if they are intressted and then send the mailer ? Feels like they will just reject without even thinking about it. Thanks

[@carolynarellano]

Hello. I’m glad you found the video valuable. If you can get on the phone with the decision maker I would tell them a little bit about yourself and ask if they would like a free quotation then set up a walkthrough. If they aren’t interested I would still mail them a mailer and send a follow up email a few weeks later

[@pltinyworld1852]

Hello guys! I can’t thank both of you enough for making such information available. It’s been helping me big time and improving my confidence desire to move up. I really appreciate that! Do you have a video that talks about how to calculate a production rate, by any chance? Thanks y’all again and have a blessed week ahead! PacificoLima Swan Janitorial Cleaning Services Deerfield Beach, FL

[@carolynarellano]

Hello there ! Thank you so much for leaving me feedback and for being subscribe to the channel. I am so happy that I'm able to improve your confidence as well as your desire to move up in your cleaning business. I do not have a video on how to calculate the exact production rate. I do have videos on how to come up with pricing. I would say with your production rate start timing yourself for each task. And overall for each type of cleaning. If you would like to purchase, there's a book from the ISS say that those provide clean times, however, it is somewhat expensive. And again ultimately would be happy to go buy yours or your cleaners production rates.

[@LailaDiya-vj6oo]

Thank you

[@carolynarellano]

You're welcome

[@jbj6393]

Maybe I missed it, but with the example of $25 an hour for a commercial hourly rate, what would the employee be paid per hour? I'm curious what I would charge relatively speaking, because the minimum wage were I am at is $18 an hour. And I think to keep employees in my area happy I'd rather pay them much more than minimum wage. What would you suggest calculating with that in mind?? Or do you have a video that could help me figure that out? Appreciate your channel, and any help as well!

[@carolynarellano]

I will be posting a video on how to thoroughly come up with your overhead and can calculate into the hourly rate. Be sure to hit the notify bell .If you pay $18 yor actual cost may be around an additional $3-$4 per hour so say $22. Now you add your profit margin.

[@cbcleaningservices2392]

What's a good schedule to use to mail these out? Like how often should i send out these mailers, email and or call them?

[@carolynarellano]

Dave explains in the video ☺️

[@sarahr4838]

Do you think it makes a difference if you hand write the envelopes versus printing them out, do you think there is some kind of personal touch when writing vs printing that helps with the open rate?

[@carolynarellano]

I think handwriting helps a lot to answer your question, BUT I also understand it can be time consuming.

[@jasonluoni6149]

If you are sending mailers to an establishment that has multiple locations in your area, do you send mailers to every location or 1?

[@carolynarellano]

Multiple . All of them lol

[@stlouisfritznicolas9314]

Hello, I wanted to thank you for sharing this video with me. As I am new to the commercial cleaning business, I am considering sending out mailers to potential clients. Before doing so, should I first register my business with an official address? Your insight would be greatly appreciated. Or should I ask what's the best way to go about it

[@carolynarellano]

I would yes but it’s not necessary

[@stlouisfritznicolas9314]

​@carolynarellano, thank you so much for relying back. Can you explain more please. I purchased your templates, but since I don't have business address, I'm confused on what to put in front of the envelope.

[@damonjames7659]

On your custom envelopes do you provide a return address?

[@carolynarellano]

You should always include the return address. You can order custom stickers, or you can simply hand write. There is also the option of printing them off of your computer from home buying the envelope stickers from Staples.

This was so informative! I’ve never thought to do this before! Can I ask how many mailers he sent out to get a response? And what was his response rate? If I could send 100 letters and get 1 response that would be awesome!

[@carolynarellano]

We do not have that information, he won 37 account slast year alone on those mailers, i think he sends about 100 a week.

[@mjohnson1895]

As a former Administrative & Executive Assistant, people would be SHOCKED at how much "power" Admins have when it comes to these type of decisions, especially as the first person who sees those mailers!!!

[@carolynarellano]

You said it !!! They are the first to see the letters and their influence on the decision making is huge.

[@Letsriseup685]

​@@carolynarellanoCan you tell please? How do we enter the competition and compete with my competitors, especially since this market is so full?

[@carolynarellano]

To be honest the best way to set yourself apart is to do what you say you are going to. When you win an account or have a new client make sure to show up on time if not early, do a great job and provide great customer service. There is a lot of competition however there is more then enough businesses and homes to clean. The issue with the bigger sizes that they are there to win contracts not take care of their clients order Subcontractor's. So they always fall short that's when his business his turn to search for smaller companies such as ours.

[@OneAwareness1]

@@carolynarellano Thank you for your response. I’m really surprised that you say the barrier to entry is lower for commercial cleaning. If I had to guess, I think you are saying that because it’s easier to get in touch with other businesses than it is to reach people at their home.

[@carolynarellano]

When he refers to a male, or he means that he is physically printing out this letter from his computer, folding it up, and putting it in an envelope, putting a stamp on it, and dropping it in the mailbox. So, in total the cost of paper, Inc., envelopes and stamps is the amount that he mentioned.

Personally, if a company kept contacting me, i would be annoyed. I view it as greedy and disingenuous. Like my optometrist who has no relationship with me whatsoever but sends me Christmas cards.

[@carolynarellano]

We’re speaking in complete reverse. If you are a business owner, there are needs that you will have as a business owner, such as cleaning, payroll services, and a number of other services. Therefore, this has no relation. I’m glad when people follow up with me as a business owner, because although I may not need their service at the moment, there is a chance that I will in the future just like with the guy from ADP, who kept calling me for a year. I’m glad he followed up with me so many times, because after the third contact I was in need of a new payroll service. I was just too busy to get to it. Also, I don’t think I’d mind if I got a Christmas card from an eye doctor that I’ve seen once. But I understand that we all have our own opinions.
