Which industry(s) to target in marketing?

I know this doesn’t answer your question, but: (just my opinion)

Cold calling is a waste of your time. Don’t worry about industries or categories or types of business or whatever.

Get out of your house and personally look for dirty windows. If you see a business that has dirty windows, give them a prepared quote. You can’t know if a business needs window cleaning over the phone.

Get out there and “hit the pavement”. I sincerely doubt anyone built a commercial window cleaning route over the phone. I may be wrong, but in my experience the optimal way to build a route is this:

  1. Go out and look for dirty windows

  2. Quote those businesses

  3. Repeat until you have enough work that you no longer have time to canvass.

  4. Profit.

Hope that helps.
