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

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.

Trimania is back and we kicked off Season 7 with Operations Manager, Lauren McLaughlin, and Special Events & Development Coordinator Sydney O'Shei, from Buffalo Arts Studio. Buffalo Arts Studio is a 20,000 sq foot art center established in 1991 to provide safe and affordable studio space and impactful exposure for visual artists while also offering arts education and meaningful arts access for the entire community. In the late 1990s, the largest and most ambitious art party was created as a fundraiser for Buffalo Arts Studio, Just Buffalo Literary Center, and Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center, all organizations housed in the newly redeveloped Tri-Main Center. The event was aptly named “Trimania” as a play on its Tri-Main Center location, its tri-annual schedule, and its support of three area cultural organizations. Trimania took the randomness of chance encounters with art and music to a new level with the support of their landlord Tri-Main Management, who provided access to almost every inch of the 600,000 square-foot Tri-Main Center. After Just Buffalo Literary Center and Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center moved out the Tri-Main center, BAS continued holding the tri-annual fundraiser. After a 7-year hiatus due to covid, the much-anticipated fundraiser is back for its reboot!

Would you like access to our advanced agency training for FREE? https://www.agencymastery360.com/training Do you need to get yourself out of agency operations so you can work ON the agency rather than in it? Are you stuck in processes and fulfillment when you should be looking at growth? It might be time to hire for the role of COO to ensure your agency's success. A Chief Operating Officer plays a pivotal role in an agency's development, significantly reducing the CEO's operational burden. However, timing is crucial – agencies should carefully consider their growth stage before initiating the search for a COO, and thoroughly understand the position's complexities to ensure an ideal match. Our featured guest brings a unique perspective to this discussion. Having served as both COO and now CEO at her current agency, she offers valuable insights into the essential qualities needed for the role. Her experience illuminates the delicate balance required between the visionary (CEO) and the executor (COO), demonstrating how this partnership can drive optimal agency outcomes. Brittany Filori is the CEO of 51Blocks and several other white label agencies serving agency owners and entrepreneurs. She discusses the crucial role of a Chief Operating Officer (COO) in agency management and shares her unique journey from starting at the bottom to becoming a CEO, providing valuable insights into the relationship dynamics between CEOs and COOs.

The decision to hire a Chief Operating Officer (COO) marks a critical turning point in an agency's growth journey. Brittany recalls transiting to a COO role once her agency was big enough to need department managers. Of course, this can vary from business to business but for her it comes down to whether the owner was ready to hand off the keys of the business' growth, and whether they needed a second hand to get the agency to the next level. Unlike an Operations Manager, whose role is managing the team, the COO is often seen as the backbone of an organization, responsible for ensuring day-to-day operations align with broader strategic goals. According to Brittany, bringing in a COO could be the best or worst decision you make, depending on who you put in that seat. It's certainly a tricky role to hire and Brittany urges agency owners to clearly define their needs. Are you seeking someone to manage personnel, or do you need a strategic thinker to drive business growth and operational excellence? These fundamental questions can mean the difference between a successful hire and a costly misstep. Strategic Operations Staffing for Growing Agencies For growing agencies not yet ready for a COO, an operations manager can provide crucial support by taking on team management responsibilities. Given the high-stress nature of operations and its potential for burnout, finding the right person requires careful consideration of both management skills and operational expertise. Agencies usually pay a pretty penny for someone who comes in with that talent. However, for smaller agencies that don't have the budget for an Operations Manager just yet, Brittany recommends training the best account manager to start to fit into that role. A great Ops Manager should be a great leader with attention to detail and the ability to see the big picture. This internal promotion strategy provides a cost-effective path to filling a critical role while also creating growth opportunities that can boost team morale and retention. 3 Most Important Roles of an Amazing COO A COO serves as the backbone of an organization, balancing multiple critical responsibilities that directly impact both the company's success and its culture. Here are three key attributes that define an exceptional COO: Comprehensive knowledge of the agency. A great COO must understand how each department functions independently and how they interconnect to support one another. This understanding extends beyond internal operations to encompass the client perspective, as every strategic decision must account for both team capabilities and customer experience. Strong financial intelligence is crucial for effective operations management. COOs must constantly evaluate agency profitability, assess resource allocation, analyze client contribution margins, and monitor employee costs. For example, an experienced COO like Brittany learns to view every decision through both a financial and customer-centric lens. Whereas earlier in their careers, they might have focused primarily on client satisfaction without fully considering the financial impact on the agency. Leadership excellence stands as a fundamental yet often overlooked requirement. Many mistakenly believe that a COO's role revolves solely around numbers and processes. However, the position demands someone who can effectively guide and inspire teams toward organizational goals. Strong communication skills and leadership abilities are not optional extras but prerequisites for success in this role. The Dynamic Between the CEOs & COOs The relationship between CEO and COO is more nuanced than many realize, according to Brittany. At its core, it's a partnership between a visionary and an integrator, where the greatest challenge lies in maintaining distinct roles despite overlapping talents. Rather than seeking a mirror image of themselves, CEOs should look for COOs who complement their strengths—even if that means partnering with someone who seems like their opposite. With these inherent differences, CEOs and COOs must learn to manage conflict, which instead of being avoided, should be embraced as a necessary element of collaboration that can serve as a mechanism for clarity. In her case, Brittany and her COO find the most constructive way to navigate conflict is to stick to facts and remove emotion. You want a COO who will complement you while also challenging you to think differently about issues to obtain the best possible results. In an effective CEO-COO relationship, the foundation is trust and communication, anchored by shared core values and commitment to the organization's mission. Brittany's advice to CEOs is to let your COO fail. If you don't fully agree with how they're planning to execute something give them a shot to try it their way. If they fail, your job as CEO is to help pick them back up, not criticize them, because otherwise they won't feel confident bringing forward innovative ideas in the future. Preventing COO Burnout: Building a Sustainable Leadership Structure As Brittany highlights, finding the right COO is just the beginning; ensuring their longevity within the organization is equally vital. The COO often bears the brunt of operational stress, alleviating burdens from the CEO and other leadership roles. Therefore, it is crucial for agency owners to actively support their COOs by ensuring they have all the tools they need to execute efficiently and feel supported. Implementing structured platforms for dialogue, such as regular check-ins and performance reviews, can facilitate healthy discussions about workload, expectations, and career aspirations. This not only helps in managing stress levels but also reinforces a sense of partnership and collaboration between the COO and the rest of the leadership team. COOs can get overwhelmed and stressed too. Finding one that matches your organization well is already hard enough so once you do, make sure you can find a way to retain them.
