A hood cleaning business plan describes the operations of a small specialty cleaning company that cleans and repairs the kitchen hoods common on large ranges in residential properties and in commercial-grade kitchens. Restaurants, resorts, hotels and multi-family housing centers are all market target segments. This is a niche industry but it's a recession-resistant market space and there are no fewer stoves with hoods being made today than 20-30 years ago. If this is your business model and you need a plan to help define your operations or try to get bank funding to expand your scope, and then make sure you get a document that answers these questions:
• What are the boundaries of your geographic territory?
• What are your most common clients?
• How much does an average cleaning cost?
• Are there related services (replacement, polishing, etc) that you offer?
• How many staff people will you need, and are they full-time employees or 1099 contractors?
• How much money will you seek with the plan?
A hood cleaning plan also needs to outline your marketing strategy with allocations to the channels that will most benefit you as you seek new customers. You should define the market need, provide information about any relevant industry trends you know about, and analyze your competitors (sales, staff, SWOT, etc). The pro forma model should show a three-year forecast of revenues and expenses as well as a break-even point and a start-up summary illustrating your use of funds. Want help?
