JanBid - Quick and Accurate Bids

Unmatched Accuracy

Built in adjustments for size of building, density of occupants, building use, cleaning frequency - a total of seven adjustments that pin point precise cleaning times.

Personalized Service

You can hand craft each bid to meet the specific needs of each customer

Beat the Low Bidders

You can offer a partial cleaning or a service of empting trash only on selected nights. Jan Bid calculates the price at a higher billing rate to offset reduced service. Beat out the competition by offering three levels of service. For example, you could choose to offer a complete cleaning three nights a week, a partial one night a week and trash only one night a week. You choose the frequency and Jan Bid does all the calculations.

Faultless Building Surveys

Survey forms are included to record data during your bid walk through. Record square footage of carpet, tile and rest rooms for calculation of nightly cleaning plus, floor waxing and carpet cleaning estimates. Quick and easy data entry even for a novice.

Fast Results

Enter the data from your survey and in just a few minutes view the cleaning times and costs.

Your Complete Bid is Ready

Jan Bid helps you complete the Cleaning Specification Chart, your Additional Cleaning Services (for windows, carpets and floors) and then fills in the customer name, address and monthly bid amount in the Cleaning Service Agreement (contract). Print out your bid and it is ready to go.
Built in adjustments for size of building, density of occupants, building use, cleaning frequency - a total of seven adjustments that pin point precise cleaning times.

Proven Performance

Accuracy of the software was checked against hundreds of janitorial contracts. Developer Gary Clipperton, a 38-year veteran contractor is considered one of the top experts in the janitorial field.

Flexibility and Adaptability

Even though the program provides you with a great deal of information, you are in complete control. For example, you determine:
•         Travel time to the account
•         Minimum bid amount for small accounts
•         Hourly rate
•         Costs for other services offered
•         Seven totally programmable Difficulty Levels
           that ensure accurate cleaning times, because no
           two buildings clean at the same rate.

Details of the Jan Bid

Estimating Software

An exclusive feature of Jan Bid is that you can instantly adjust the cleaning times for each and every building. Experienced contractors know that buildings are different, with individual cleaning needs and conditions. You will have three building survey forms, including a Cleaning Variable rating scale for seven major cleaning variables.

When you make your building walk-through, you simply fill out the forms. The scoring system asks for a rating of each item on a scale of either 1-30, 1-10 or 1-3. The total score for the Cleaning Variable survey is entered into the Jan Bid worksheet. This score automatically adjusts the cleaning times specific for this building. This is a powerful and exclusive feature of JanBid.

JanBid also calculates the cleaning times for dozens of special project cleaning tasks. It adjusts for the difficulty in cleaning restrooms. Rest room cleaning times are calculated by entering the square footage of the restrooms and number of fixtures such as sinks, mirrors, urinals, commodes and partitions.

Each building can be scored depending upon light, medium or heavy cleaning demands.  Again, the survey forms will allow even a novice to pinpoint all the required cleaning activities. Several hundred buildings have been entered into the software to check the accuracy of the cleaning times. You will love the detailed and comprehensive pricing for carpet care, floor care and window washing.

You can enter the data collected from your building survey in just a couple of minutes.  Instantly view the Jan Bid labor calculations and monthly costs.

Another exclusive feature of Jan Bid is the ability to bid on a nightly complete cleaning or submit a bid for a partial clean and/or trash pick up only. If a prospect requires a low monthly price, you can submit the cost for partial (spot) cleaning and trash pick up only, in addition to a complete clean.

The partial clean reflects a 25% labor reduction and trash pick up reflects a 50% labor reduction. So even by reducing your price, you still earn a significant hourly salary for doing less work. You can choose any frequency your customer desires such as a complete clean twice a week, a partial clean twice a week and a trash only once a week. Personalize your bid - the software does all the calculations for you. You can submit two or three proposals and let the prospect decide which one best fits there needs.

With Jan Bid you can recover travel costs when necessary. It even adds an additional hour per month for administrative and paperwork time. What a great software system. You can be right on the money every time! Now you have a definite advantage over your competitors.

The instructions include samples from actual buildings. Software cleaning times were compared with actual labor records to ensure accuracy. Jan Bid takes the guesswork out of bidding. No more need to bump up pricing to cover the unknown and then lose the contract.

Screen Shots

Enter customer data and Jan Bid will prepare the entire bid package

Enter desired cleaning frequency and determine if partial cleaning services will be offered.

Determine Cleaning Difficulty Factor from your initial building survey. This automatically adjusts all the cleaning times for you, based upon the seven variables that are rated during the bid walk thru.

The next step is to enter the square footage of each floor type

Enter the number of rest room fixtures and difficulty level

It only takes a couple of minutes to complete the bid

The cleaning time is highly accurate because it compensates for all of the cleaning conditions for each building.

No more guess work. Eliminate bidding too low and losing your shirt or too high and losing the contract.

TESTIMONIALS

"Just received your JanBid and WOW! What a deal, so easy and straight forward. Now I have a way to know what I should charge! That has been a bit of a stumbling block for me at times. Like many others that's always hard to figure and be fair to yourself and the customer, even after 10 years in the business. But JanBid makes it happen quite easily.

Thanks again for all your years of experience and being willing to share the inside information with us."

Dear Mr. Clipperton,

"I've been in the cleaning business for over eight years now, but still found myself engaging in a great deal of guesswork with each proposal I put together. I've looked at other bidding programs over the years, but have not found them to be very accurate or useful, in spite of their price tag.

I have found Jan Bid to be easy to use, and surprisingly accurate. Since purchasing the program, I have been using Jan Bid for all of my janitorial bids and will continue to do so."

Sincerely,

Joshua Bowe

Gary,

Thank you very much for your great customer service. Our person in charge of janitorial services left without notice and this job has fallen into my hands. I do not know very much about figuring janitorial prices so I ordered your program.

Overnight I have learned a great deal and I now feel somewhat comfortable in giving reliable estimates. You have exceeded my expectations!

Ralph W.

Goodwill Industries, S.C.

I’ve ordered both the Janitorial Success course and the Jan-Bid estimating program and can say that these materials are very impressive in their scope and professionalism. They take a lot of the guesswork out of the start-up phase of your business by addressing common questions that you may have.

They are worth many times more than Gary is charging for them. I would strongly encourage anyone interested in starting a commercial cleaning business to run, don’t walk, to order Gary’s products; you won’t be disappointed.

Gary’s products are also very helpful for anyone who’s been working in the cleaning industry and is looking to supplement their knowledge and increase the bottom line for their business.

I have spoken to Gary on a number of occasions and can honestly say that Gary is in a class by himself when it comes to supporting his products. You won’t come across a more unselfish, helpful person than Gary, in the cleaning industry, or otherwise. He and all of his materials come with my highest recommendation.

I have been using Jan Bid for a little while now and it has saved me from not only low bidding, but taking the guess out of bidding a building. My business is fairly new. I have the skills to do all the work required, but my bidding skills were not where they needed to be because in my area there are a many large cleaning contractors. Jan Bid helps me stay up with the big boys.

I purchased your Jan Bid software about 2 months ago. Just wanted to let you know that I am very happy with it. Bids usually come out about the same as the other method I was using but gives a much better detailing of time and expenses.

The products developed by Gary Clipperton are life saving in the competitive business we find ourselves in. He not only takes the guesswork out of job bidding but shows the profit immediately to be made on each client. His knowledge of the business is remarkable and he was so willing to share it with me. I only wish I would of found his programs sooner.

Gary keep up the good work. I can not wait to see what you come up with next to make my business excel further.

Dear Gary,

I have been in the commercial cleaning business for two years including owning a cleaning franchise. After purchasing your JanBid Software and evaluating my accounts I realized they were under bid and paying me very little profit. After waiting for my non-compete agreement to expire, I am ready to go again. By using JanBid I can eliminate low bids, uncertain guesswork and the disappearance of profits.

By being able to view the projected labor and all expenses, I can offer a win/win situation for me and the customer. Thank you Gary for sharing your invaluable bidding secrets and keep up the good work.

Warmest Regards,

Gary and the National Pro Clean Corp. have been a great asset to my company. With Janbid not only am I able to deliver a competitive bid within 24hrs, but so far my bids have been right on the MONEY!! With the use of this Janbid software along with the help and wisdom of Gary, you can’t go wrong.

Thanks Gary for creating such a great product.

Gary, please warn your customers for me. I was part of a leading franchise which turned out to be a total rip off. The accounts were bid way too low and the franchise kept over 25% of my pay each month for their administrative purposes. Now that I have your program, I am landing my own accounts and keeping 100% of the money.

Please don't use my name as I have already been to court once with these crooks.

Gary, your software is fantastic. We’re just starting in the business and as I was preparing to sign a lease for some office space, the building owner asked me to submit a bid to clean his office building. I was taken back and really needed some help in a hurry. Your software got me through a rough start and on the way to my first successful bid (hopefully).

Hi Gary,

I was a franchisee for one of the big national Cleaning Franchises. I was really fed up with not having control over the contracts I got and the amount of money I received. I purchased your Jan Bid software and Janitorial Success Manual. I landed my first contract only a few weeks after I reviewed the Janitorial Success Manual. I'm sure I got the contract due to the knowledge I got from the Manual and from using Jan Bid software in my bid. Because of your help, whenever I make a bid I no longer feel overwhelmed. Thanks for providing great information at a fair price.

Jan Bid has been extremely helpful for me and my company, considering I did not have any experience in bidding. I am now learning how to master the task of biding, thanks to Gary's user friendly software (Jan Bid). Last week I just landed my first contract using JanBid. In addition to the Jan Bid software, Gary's over the phone coaching has surpassed all of my expectations. Thanks again Gary for all of your help.

Hello Gary,

After careful evaluations of janitorial softwares from all over the internet, I have found yours to be the most in depth, easy to understand bidding software. In addition your customer service has been unmatched and I would recommend this product to anyone really serious about starting a janitorial business or simply taking their current business to the next level.

Dear Gary,

In April of this year we purchased your JanBid Estimating Software. We purchased the complete CD with the manual. We wanted to improve the way we were bidding our janitorial services and become more professional and accurate. Our old way of bidding was to walk through a building and figure how long it would take us, how many employees were needed, and how much we thought we could get for the entire job. Needless to say, this way left out many things that took time to clean that were not priced into the job but had to be done or lose the contract. In addition, many of our customers requested jobs to be priced by the square foot and we were not set up to give them an accurate number. While we did get many jobs and did make some money along the way, it was not consistent. Especially when you are in a small town and everyone knows one another and compares prices. The other problem we faced was the time spent putting a quotation together; it would take us sometimes days because of the various options customers were requesting.

In April of this year all that changed. We took the step to become more professional with our quotes and presentations to our customers. I did my homework and looked at all of the different programs and options many vendors were offering. None seem to do what we were looking for and for a reasonable price until, we found JanBid.

One of the deciding factors was that we needed support. We had never used something like this and wanted to make sure it was going to do everything we were told it would do. Your company told us they were just a phone call away and could help even with an actual bid.

Well here we are in October 2008, six months later as an extremely satisfied user. When we got the software and the manual we were able to get started immediately. We started with our current customers, and were amazed by how quickly it computed how much we should be charging. This included all of the labor, chemicals, overhead and most of all the profit. In some cases we found that we were just breaking even or sometimes even losing a little. JanBid figures out all of the things we were leaving out and most importantly all of the profit we were missing out on. After going through our customer base and bringing up all of our customers to a "more profitable" level we have started to grow.

JanBid has brought several new customers, some of them even national. Ever since we have been using JanBid we have not lost a single quote to a competitor. JanBid allows us to offer more options to the customer that we could have never done before. The best part of all of the software is how quickly you can deliver a bid. The entire quote is done with this software, and JanBid provides a more professional quote with more information and professionalism than our competition.

The price we paid for the complete package was paid for on the first bid we were awarded. JanBid has everything we need to be more professional and allows us to make sure we are profitable and continue to grow. When we first started using JanBid we had 18 employees cleaning, thanks to JanBid in six months we have increased the number of offices we clean and are now up to 39 employees and we will be adding an additional six this coming week.

Thank you for your product! It has truly changed our business for the better and is allowing us to reach our goals faster. Thank you for helping our business become a better business.

Sincerely,

Christopher G. Bluvas

Gary, I want to thank you and National Pro Clean for putting together a high-quality training and bid software package that is more than affordable. I've had an existing part-time cleaning company for 8 years and decided to grow the business.

This program, not only gave me the confidence but it gave me knowledge, speed and accuracy. The week after I finished the program I picked up 8 carpet jobs that I was confident they were priced right and I will do a better job cleaning the carpets.

The Bid Software has relieved so much of the pricing stress when quoting on jobs. I'm finding I can immediately turn around pricing same or next day, with literature that helps sell the job. Great Product! I'd recommend your product to anyone looking to start or grow an existing cleaning business.

Keep up the great work,

Hi Gary, Just wanted to thank you for the time you spent with me over the phone helping me with a bid. I have bought many things over the net that offered support but never received it when was needed. I must say you are the first that I know that backs their product to the fullest. You spent over an hour with me with my quote. JanBid is the best software I have seen and I know it works. I used it for the first time and with your help I won my first biggest account of 7 years in business. It was a 17,000 sq ft. building. I have never before been able to compete with the so called big boys until I used JanBid. If anyone wants to know if Jan Bid works give them my email. At the end of this month I will take a new check to the bank compliments of JanBid. Thanks Gary - talk with you soon I hope.

To whom it may concern,

Hello, my name is Bennie. I would like to thank Mr. Gary for his support in helping me restore my faith in the cleaning business. I owned a Jan**** Franchise for 15 years and could have done better working a ten dollar an hour job.

Before I considered purchasing the Jan Bid Software, Gary helped me along the way and gave me information worth thousands in the franchise business. The software is outstanding; it will give you a precise bid if you plug in the numbers right. Being able to bid your accounts properly will keep you in business.

Many thanks to Gary

Hi Gary,

I just wanted to send you a message about your software, JanBid, I had purchased from your company. Well, I found it very easy to use. I printed out the worksheet that you take to the walk through. I counted and measured everything that it applied to, very easy, and went back to the office and plugged in the numbers. Again, very easy to do, and Walla, everything came to life. I tweaked it a bit as it teaches you and came up with the bid. I hit print and I received a very professional bid package that I presented to my client.

They came back to me with a big YES, we are going to go with your bid, as in their words, It was a no brainier. They never received such a thorough bid package before, and that is what sold them. I want to thank you for your time in discussing the program with me. It is nice to know that you are that accessible. I will be using JanBid on all of my bids, no matter how big or small the account calls for. I would recommend this program to anyone that wants to get a handle on preparing accurate bids in a very efficient time.

Sincerely,

Your bid program helped us secure our first contract three years ago. Jan Bid is easy to use and allows for a professional presentation to customers.

Having built a successful business around specialized cleaning processes, we were looking to expand into the market of janitor services. I was looking for a bidding and proposal software package that would minimize guess work, standardize bid processes and remove emotional bidding from my proposal work.
I purchased a copy of JanBid from Gary Clipperton at National Pro Clean. I quickly realized this as a robust software package with enough detail and tools to coach my work and enough flexibility to shape the software to my company’s unique needs. In addition, each time I called Gary he helped me with not only use of the software but suggested language and sales tactics to win contracts.
Using JanBid, and Gary’s advice, doors are being opened that are allowing me to expand my business. In addition, Gary’s customer service sets the standard.

Gary,

I wish to thank you very much for your program! Since we have been using JanBid, we have secured over 85,000 square feet of office buildings to clean and maintain. This program is awesome. All the extras in your new upgrade are great.

We were assuming that any new upgrades were going to have an upgrade fee, but to our surprise there were none! This is superior support to say the least! We are looking forward to our next bid; it will be a breeze to do.

Thanks so much for this superior program.

I just wanted to let you know that we just landed a private elementary school K thru 5th grade using the numbers provided and your JanBid software.

Thanks a lot.
