Once again, newspapers are filled with stories of another American city suffering the ill-effects of a sudden flood. On June 14, 2010 Oklahoma City, OK experienced city-wide flooding brought about by a torrential downpour of up to 10 inches of rain in an 8 hour period. This severe rain quickly over-burdened flooding control measures. As levies’ banks were quickly overrun water began to damage houses and business storefronts.

The people of OKC are still suffering from this experience but as they begin to dry out they will have to assess their need to rebuild or rehab their buildings and houses. Structures that are still structurally sound will need pressure washing to remove mud damage and water lines caused by the flooding. Skilled pressure washing businesses in the area should be able to advertise their power washing companies to attract thankful new customers. Power cleaning and pressure washing services will be very much needed in the coming weeks and months to clean up after flood damage in the Oklahoma City area. Small pressure cleaning jobs as well as large scale power cleaning contracts should be relatively easy to find and the services of skilled pressure cleaning professionals will be highly sought after.

While it is sad these disasters happen, it makes you feel good as a business owner that you can step in and provide valuable services to your customers when they really need your pressure washing services most.

Of course, we always recommend taking a measured approach to starting your business but if you have already been thinking of starting a pressure washing business or if you own a pressure washing business and you want to take your business to the next level in your own area, you should take a look at our Pressure Washing Business training course.

In the course there is tons of information about starting and growing your Pressure Washing Business. There is also a huge section on estimating and bidding power cleaning jobs…both large and small. The PressureWashingBusiness.com Estimating Software is also included with the course.

If you have already started your own Pressure Washing Business, you probably are already experimenting with billing procedures. 

While our Pressure Washing Business guide gives many great tips on getting your customers to pay their bill quickly, we are always looking out for new bill payment methods.  Online bill payment services such as Paypal and other online merchant accounts have helped the billing procedure tremendously in the past few years.  However bill payment is becoming easier and almost instantaneous with the use of smart phones and credit card acceptance applications.

We found this device recently that plugs into an I-phone and allows you to swipe your customers credit card.  Imagine being able to accept credit card payments right on your customer’s doorstep after you have finished their power washing job.  Instantaneous billing means you don’t have to fool with invoices, await your customer’s payment, and delay while the bank clears the check.   Watch the video below for a quick explanation of one of these card swiping devices.  There are other devices on the market too.  So, we will continue to pass information along to you as we learn more.

If you are starting a Pressure Washing Business this year or if you have already started and you are just not making the money you feel you should be making you might need some professional guidance.  Our Pressure Washing Business program is a tremendous asset to any Pressure Cleaning / Power Washing business.  The program also includes the estimating software that helps you determine proper prices for your customers.  Never underbid again.

Memorial Day and Starting Your Own Pressure Washing Business

Jun 1

I truly hope everyone had a great Memorial Day weekend.

This is one of the few times of the year when I make a legitimate effort to take my mind off business. But, Memorial Day made me think of all the young men our country has lost in the course of battle…young men who have often truly not even begun to live. The real tragedy is that many of those young men never get to live out their life long dreams.

My Father was in the Air Force and he was telling us a few stories today about missions and men in his bomb group that got shot down and never returned home alive. As we were chatting, I started thinking about the Pressure Washing Business and this program we have developed. We developed this pressure washing business program to help people start their own pressure washing business and learn to do the business right and make the money they deserve. More than just the business aspect, though, we developed this program to help people achieve the dream of starting their own business.

Over the years, we have seen many people attempt to start their own power washing businesses only to fail because they didn’t know how to get their businesses started right and didn’t know how much money to charge by estimating jobs correctly. Our business program now includes estimating software to help you know how much money to charge customers and make the money you deserve in your business.

So, I want to wish everyone a great start of the summer season. If you have ever dreamed of starting your own business and being your own boss, use Memorial Day as motivation to get started immediately. Don’t turn away from your dreams. With a little help, starting your own business is not as difficult as it might seem.

We developed the Pressure Washing Business program as a guide to help you start and operate a successful Pressure Washing / Power Washing business. We have the program on sale right now and you can read more about it through our website: www.PressureWashingBusiness.com
