REVIVE Professional Cleaning | Application Preview
REVIVE Professional Cleaning is seeking government grant funding to enhance its business operations. The funds will be allocated to ensure reliable transportation for long-distance travel, pay off existing business debt of $2,000, and purchase business insurance. Additional investments will include professional cleaning equipment, branded attire, and marketing efforts such as billboards or radio commercials.
The business plan emphasizes ongoing marketing efforts through social media, flyers, and word-of-mouth referrals from past customers. The owner aims to achieve a fully booked schedule from Monday to Friday within the next six months and hire at least one employee. Funding will enable expanded advertising in target areas.
The application argues that the business owner possesses the required skills, dedication, and motivation to succeed. As a single mother facing personal challenges, she aspires to achieve financial independence through her business. The potential funding would represent a significant step toward her goal of stability.
While competition is prevalent in the local cleaning industry, the owner believes her business stands out due to its mission. She aims to provide charitable cleaning services for those in need, reflecting her commitment to helping the less fortunate. Her passion for the work and desire to genuinely support her community differentiate REVIVE from other cleaning services in the area.

Funding Usage
First, I would use the funds to ensure my vehicle is reliable to travel significant distances. Then, I would pay off my existing business debt of 2k, and after that I would purchase business insurance. I would then invest the funds in professional cleaning appliances (carpet shampooer, vacuum, etc), professional attire with business printed/embroidered, and maybe even a billboard or a radio commercial for advertising.

Business Plan
I will continue to post on my Facebook page, hang flyers and pass out business cards. I will encourage past customers to spread the word about my business. Within the next 6 months, my goal is to be booked solid Monday through Friday and to take on at least 1 employee. If funds were available, I would also grow my business by advertising in more unique ways (billboards, radio commercials) in my target areas. I should be invested in because I have the skills, drive and determination to potentially be a successful business owner and leader, but the one thing I lack is funds. As a single mother with no help from the other parent and both of my parents deceased, my life goal/dream is to become self sufficient with my business in order to eventually not have to stress about every dollar. What a "dream come true" it would be to have someone willing to step out in faith and invest in me and my business.

Self Identified Competition
Unsure who my top 3 competitors are because there are already an abundance of cleaning services in my area and they seem to be growing every day. My business is different from my competitors because eventually, I'd like to get to a point to be able to do charity cleans for disabled people or simply those that cannot afford it but could use a helping hand. I thoroughly enjoy helping the "less fortunate", but that's difficult to do when I would be considered that myself. I love the physical part of my services, almost a built in workout while on the job and take pride in advertising myself as the most thorough cleaner around. My business is different from my competitors because my heart is truly in it and the people I serve and hope to serve.
