Before I reveal the secret, let me state the following:1) The secret isn’t limited to the cleaning industry2) The secret isn’t written on a ‘stone tablet’ – it’s my opinion, based on my personal experience3) It’s not the only secret, just the one I believe is most importantOk, that said, here it is – what I believe is – THE secret to having a successful partnership in the cleaning biz:Sharing Common Principles…rather than having similar personalitiesThat’s it.Put differently, business partners who hold similar values and share similar beliefs about important matters, like:1) how people should be treated2) how business should be conducted3) commitment to persevere4) commitment to quality, to excellence… have a far greater chance of succeeding than those who don’t – even if (maybe because) their personalities are quite different.Here’s the BIG thing…It’s remarkable how often you’ll see successful business partnerships consisting of two (seemingly) VERY different people, based on personality.One is analytical One is outgoing One is all about the numbers One is all about the people One is all about the systems One is all about the feeling Yet, if you dig deeper – you quickly realize a TWO important things:1) They share the same vision, the same principles2) They not only respect the other business partner despite the difference in personality, perspective and approach – but, actually…find additional value in the perspective of their business partner BECAUSE OF their different personality and perspective and approachThat’s it. It certainly helped Tony and me, I hope it helps you too.You Can Do This – You Really Can, DanCleanGuru LLC
