My best friend has started her own online business. She sells cleaning products to offices, school, and everyday homeowners at a fraction of the price that they would pay at their local stores. I set up a recurring order with her and have been super pleased with the whole thing. I always have my cleaning products on hand and when they are getting low, my new shipment is there within a few days.

I mentioned my friends business to a buddy of mine who works for the local schools. He told me that they are always looking to save some money on their janitorial supplies, so he would check it out and compare her prices to the ones that they were paying currently.

I called my friend to give her the good news and she thanked me for passing along her companies name and site. She knows that it will take time to grow the business but she also knows that she has good products and great prices and eventually the rest of the world who needs janitorial supplies will too.

I just hope that the guy from the school calls her to set up an account. I think that an account that big will do wonders for her business. If she can start advertising some of the people she works with then others will be more apt to give her a try.
