We’ve come a long way in six short years. What began as an e-zine with flip pages has grown into a multi-media news outlet for the cleaning industry, delivering the news you need to succeed through Cleaning Business Today’s social media channels, resource-rich web library and email newsletter.
Our evolution continues but our purpose at Cleaning Business Today remains constant – to inform, engage and inspire the professionals that drive our industry.
INFORM – ENGAGE – INSPIRE
The cleaning industry is growing and changing more rapidly than ever – the technology that runs our services, the spaces and surfaces we clean, the business environment in which we operate.
For six years Cleaning Business Today has helped you adapt to the dynamic forces in our industry by adapting ourselves. Fast forward to February, when we asked our subscribers about your preferences in topics, channels and frequency of information coming from Cleaning Business Today.
As we celebrate our six years in service to our industry we respond to your feedback by launching these SIX exciting new features.
WHAT’S NEW?
Now it’s even easier to engage with our content and interact with each other, too, as we examine the thought leadership, technology and product innovations that drive the cleaning industry forward.
Daily engagement videos will focus on everything but the cleaning – especially employee-related topics – and can be accessed via our website. This bonus content is aimed at managing your business.
Facebook private group for peer-to-peer interaction and problem solving. Share, learn, collaborate and celebrate with like-minded business owners sharing the same challenges and triumphs.
Bi-weekly newsletter format with new, original content pushed out during the first week of the month followed in the third week by a digest format sharing related content from our archives and other news sources.
Deep editorial calendar addresses issues in each of four categories every month: business management, customers, employees and service delivery.
Actionable content saves you time, with more turn-key material you can apply directly to your business.
New staff to advance our mission – raising public perceptions of the cleaning industry by fostering a culture of excellence in technical expertise, customer and employee relations and business management.
