    www.thejanitorialstore.com/pu... In this video I talk about being a subcontractor and hiring subcontractors to clean for your company. Mis-classification is a common problem in the cleaning industry and you need to make sure you don't do this because it can cost you fines and back taxes. I miss-spoke I said my first company was the mid 90's but I started it in the mid 80's.
    Here is a link to a page that you can place your profile on if you are looking for subcontractors or want to sub contract work from other companies.

    As a 1099 “employee” also my fault not knowing to open my own business EIN, have insurance, etc.. the tension between my employer and I got so intense that I was wrongfully fired and this video brings all the clarity that both parties need. I wanted to negotiate my prices and choose my schedule. Now I’m “unemployed” and was confused. Thank you for your clarity. Clarity is kindness. Off to be a real contractor now! 🥰

    We are looking to hire another company to contract work. We own a small business doing the work ourselves and looking to add more units to grow the business. We only do short term rental vacation cleanings. We need to know what the average split should be? How does that work financially? A contarcter offered a 60/40 split in their favor and we are providing the linens,toiletries, bag packing ,delivering and stripping the beds. Contractor does just the cleaning. Thoughts?

    hello, I wanted to ask, How does an independent contractor make profit by hiring subcontracters to work for him?

    • @thejanitorialstore
      @thejanitorialstore  Před 3 lety +2

      The general contractor gets a percentage of the job. They hire it out to another cleaning business that would be a larger percentage of the job since they are performing the work and the general contract is only managing it.
      You will see percent splits at 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, 80/20 and 90/10. You always want to run your numbers for the job to make sure you will make money at it. If fact the general contract should ask you to give them a price on the job. Some will tell you the price they will pay which in most cases is too low. So do your homework before signing anything.

      I'm sorry but how can you really make any money from it? Would it just be cheaper to work along side a subcontractor? Or just hire employees?

    Just managing the account? How did they get the account in the first place? Do you know how much marketing costs? How about all liability being on the contractor, not the sub? Spoken like a person who's never owned a company before

    Am small business and couple moths ago started sigh some offices contract from big cleaning companies they provide me the customer and provide insurance and from my side i hire a subcontractors providing them training and equipment and time to time supervising
    I get pay by cheque and i pay my subcontractors by Etransfer do i am in the right way like that or there is something that am not paying attention to it
    As am new in the field

      You are mis-classifying the subcontractors. You can not train them and they should have their own equipment. You lose a lot of control using subcontractors. The fact that you are subcontracting from a big company and then turning around and subcontracting the work to another company leaves little or no profit. Get your own accounts and make sure you hire legal subcontractors. The IRS is very clean on this.

    Why hire a Sub Contractor company instead of hiring your own employees to do the work?

    • @thejanitorialstore
      @thejanitorialstore  Před rokem +1

      There could be many reason for doing so. The first would be the lack of workforce or presence for an immediate contract outside of your geographical. Let's say a current client is expanding. Another could be that you don't want to have to pay the overhead costs that come with hiring W2 employees. These are just 2 examples as to why. I hope that helps!
