A A AMany people hate to clean, and that's really where Bonus Building Care comes in. It's a commercial cleaning franchise based in Indianola, Okla. If a commercial building needs a janitor or team of custodians, the folks at Bonus Building Care will supply whomever they need.
The Bonus Building Care website contends that running a commercial building cleaning service is more dependable than running a maid franchise or some other specialty cleaning business. After all, in tough times, the residential market may well decrease, as families decide they can clean their own houses. But a business, if it wants to look professional and be admired by its customer base, isn't likely to go with the lived in look. So chances are, once Bonus Building Care franchise owners get established, they will be able to look at their future months' gross billings and predict their cash flow with few unpleasant surprises.
Interestingly enough, Bonus Building Care was founded by one of the co-founders of Jani-King, another commercial cleaning franchise that came on the scene in 1969. When Arleen Cavanaugh divorced her husband, Jim, in the mid-1990s, Jim retained control of Jani-King, and she started her own commercial cleaning firm. With existing franchisees mostly in the South and Midwest, there is definitely room for growth for those thinking of pursuing a Bonus Building Care franchise opportunity.

Looking through your Small Business site, I wished I would see a section for "Small Businesses FOR SALE"
I happen to have one for sale in Vancouver.
Is there a site where I could post it?
Thanks!
