BOXING: Galway GAA Finance & Operations Manager Sean O'Connor with Galway Bay FM's John Mulligan at Kieran Molloy's staredown

Have you ever wondered how to find your next big client in the industrial cleaning space? It all comes down to effective prospecting – finding out who needs your services, where they are, and how to start a conversation.Today, I'm sharing some key strategies we discussed on the podcast, inspired by a listener's question on cracking the industrial cleaning market in places like Abuja:1. Strategic Networking & Professional AssociationsDon't underestimate the power of showing up in the right rooms. For industrial cleaning, this means places where large businesses and property owners gather. * Chambers of Commerce: For example, the Abuja Chamber of Commerce. From my own experience with the Lagos Chamber, you'll find factory owners, warehouse operators, and specialized businesses—exactly the kind of clients who need industrial cleaning. It's not just about direct sales; it's about meeting decision-makers and stakeholders who can provide crucial introductions and referrals. * Professional Associations: Joining groups like the Cleaning Practitioners Association of Nigeria (CPAN) offers invaluable benefits. Beyond nurturing and support for new members, these associations are fertile ground for commissioned referrals. Members often pass on excess business, creating opportunities for trusted partners.2. Targeted Direct OutreachOnce you know who you're looking for, go directly to them. * Research & List Building: Identify target companies that fit the industrial cleaning profile (factories, large offices, warehouses, power plants, etc.). * Identify Key Decision-Makers: Don't just call the general line. Pinpoint roles like the Operations Manager, Facility Manager, Procurement Officer, or even Branch Managers. These are the people who make or influence cleaning service decisions. * Craft Your Approach: Plan how you'll initiate contact. What value proposition will you lead with?3. Leverage Existing ReferralsYour current satisfied customers are your best advocates. * Ask for Referrals: If you've been in business for a while, reach out to your existing clients and politely ask for introductions to other businesses they know who might need your services. A warm introduction is often more effective than a cold call.Building a strong prospecting strategy isn't just about making calls; it's about being strategic, connecting in the right places, and building relationships. What are your go-to prospecting tactics for business growth?And if you'd love to hear more in details discussed in the podcast, check out the link in my bio!#IndustrialCleaning #BusinessDevelopment #Prospecting #SalesStrategy #Networking #AbujaBusiness

This is the very first episode of the Series – Bridging the Age Gap – where we explore how women from different generations come together to reframe what it means to lead. In this episode, Julia is joined by Mieke Verloo and Mariel Mia Haug, a professor and her former student who connected at a conference on democracy and gender equality in Europe. What began as a formal introduction quickly evolved into a collaborative dynamic grounded in shared roots, values, and feminist ideals. Mia reflects on how she had to shed learned notions of deference and excessive politeness to form a meaningful connection. Mieke, the professor, in turn, shares how intentional presence, deep listening, and care are at the heart of how she holds space and how that is, in itself, a way of leading. They explore how age difference can create assumptions about what each person brings to the table, and how those assumptions can be challenged through honest dialogue and mutual respect. Listen to dive into a conversation between two women at different life stages, choosing curiosity over hierarchy as that's where the magic in leading resides. About The Guests: Mieke Verloo is Professor of Comparative Politics and Inequality Issues at Radboud University in the Netherlands, and Non-Residential Permanent Fellow at the IWM, Institute for Human Sciences in Vienna. She has extensive publications on gender equality policymaking in Europe, on gender mainstreaming and intersectionality, on gendered body politics, gendered knowledge politics, and on opposition to gender equality in Europe. For 2022-2036, she is coordinating the CCINDLE project.

Darren spent his early adulthood working in the steel industry, eventually landing him in Calgary Alberta. During this time Darren and friend Graham Dunlop started The Grimerica Podcast, an interview podcast about all the things they and their podcast community find interesting in the world, which helped lead him to many, many rabbit holes. Today Darren raises two young daughters in Alberta, Canada, working as a podcast host, author and entrepreneur. Darren spends a lot of time with his family and hunting and fishing.. His skeptical approach to the phenomena investigated on The Grimerica Show is tempered by his libertarian leanings, though this combination frequently leads him to crush the dreams of anyone looking for a high-rated synchronicity. Working in high steel construction has given him the privilege of having a bird's-eye perspective on a variety of subject matter, both literally and figuratively. His avoidance of cameras has nothing to do with paranoia, taking his picture will, very literally, steal his soul. Someday, Darren hopes to bust a few caps in Sasquatch, while he has more than a few caps swirling around in his own head. He is not as clean and sober as Graham. About Graham Dunlop Graham's primary passions are podcasting, researching, and helping others. Obsessed with learning and self-improvement, Graham and Darren started The Grimerica Podcast in 2013. Their show has continued to grow into a sizable and loving community. Most recently he's pursued a spin-off podcast, Grimerica Outlawed, and has narrated various audiobooks. A fast-paced life of corporate ladder climbing and competitive sports eventually took its toll, and Graham got completely clean and sober in 2008. Every year since then has been an escalating pursuit into the esoteric, occult, and spiritual arenas. Somewhere along the way he found time to travel around the world, become a Reiki master, get certified in Addiction Studies, facilitate Buddhist meditative recovery meetings, coach hockey, and lead numerous CE-5 expeditions (Close Encounters of the Fifth Kind). His journey has been one of achievement and compassion. Other professional management experiences includes Operations Manager at Premsteel Fabricators and several director positions with ACRO Aerospace: Director of Business Excellence, Director of Technical Services, and Director of Purchasing. However Graham's current focus is on raising his awareness, and enjoying living outside the city with the love of his life, Marija. In what spare time he has, he makes his mark in the imagination of others with the unparalleled skill of Dungeon Master Supreme.
