When consumer spending declines, small businesses are at greater risk than larger, better-established companies. Smaller businesses often simply don’t have the financial wherewithal to struggle successfully through extended economic crises. However, by taking measures to prepare in advance for difficult times ahead, you can help your commercial power sweeping business become more resistant to threats from recession. Follow the recommendations below for cost-cutting, marketing, customer retention, and other measures, to help make your business as recession-proof as possible.

Take a hard look at possibilities for cutting inventory costs while maintaining quality and seamless services to customers. It may be time to make some changes. Maybe it’s time to lower the quantity for some items you’re keeping in stock. Consider implementing a KanBan system to help control spending, by prompting replenishment only when stocks of various items reach designated levels for reordering. Also, examine your shipping costs, and see if there are more cost-efficient alternatives. Further, buying from the same supplier forever isn’t necessarily always to your advantage as a business consumer. Sometimes, shopping around for a better

the tremendous challenge of restoring customers’ faith in air travel (Leavitt, 2020). In collaboration with security technology experts, JetBlue became the first airline to install armored cockpit doors on every plane; thanks in part to their example, today all commercial planes have cockpit doors strong enough to withstand a grenade blast (de Castella, 2015). By advertising this change to customers, as well as the visual of a flight attendant arming the door with a secret code, JetBlue communicated symbolically that their planes were secure, that their company had taken every precaution to ensure passengers’ safety. Today, face coverings, gloves, and bottles of hand sanitizer

have become important symbols of safety. Once again demonstrating their proactive approach, JetBlue was the first major airline to require all passengers to wear face masks (Fieldstadt, 2020). When customers see these items in a business, they know they are in a place that prioritizes their safety. These precautions also demonstrate that a company prioritizes the safety of its employees, a practice that fosters respect and loyalty among customers. The road to economic recovery is uncertain and how your business responds will play a huge role in restoring consumer confidence. Ralph Waldo Emerson’s wisdom indeed holds true: “What you do speaks so loudly that I cannot hear what you say.”

STREET SWEEPING BROOMS:Wafer Broom

From municipal streets to construction sites, street sweepers are used every day to clean up various types of debris. Operators have a choice in what type of broom they put on their sweeper. A popular broom option for sweeper attachments and road construction sweepers, based on their compact size, easy installation, and costefficiency, is the wafer broom.

DIFFERENT WAFER STYLES

There are two different styles of wafers, a flat wafer, and a convoluted wafer. These styles refer to the shape of the inside ring of the wafer, which is typically a steel ring. The ring holds the bristle together and slides over the wafer rack. The flat wafer, as you may have already

When mounting a flat wafer on a wafer rack, a spacer is placed in between each wafer to create the spacing on the broom core. The standard configuration is wafer, spacer, wafer, spacer, and so on. These wafers also have a single pin in the ring that catches the bar on the wafer rack so that the wafer rotates as the sweeper drive spins the wafer rack. continued on page 24

Flat wafers do not need to be stacked in any specific way on the wafer rack, although common practice is to alternate the placement of the pin while stacking the wafer. If a denser broom is needed, the spacer can be removed, and each wafer can just be stacked directly on top of one another. The convoluted wafer, on the other hand, does not need a spacer due to the wavy design of the ring. There are two pins inside that are designed to help

with the placement of each wafer on the wafer rack. The convoluted design has high and low points around the ring that need to line up correctly with one another to create the proper spacing throughout the broom core. Each wafer is rotated a quarter turn on a standard 4-bar wafer rack and a third turn on a 3-bar wafer rack. This allows the high spots on one wafer to match up the low spots of the next wafer creating the space needed to build a standard broom. BRISTLE TYPE

the style of wafer will determine the exact amount needed. For example, an 8’ broom takes approximately 56 flat wafers with 55 spacers. The same 8’ broom will use only 47 convoluted wafers. Wafers are typically sold by the box and depending on the size wafer, you can expect anywhere from 24 to 28 wafers in a box. Spacers are not typically included with the wafers because they’re re-usable and don’t need to be changed every time the wafers are changed. So, make sure you save your spacers!

CLEAN SWEEP LOT SERVICE LLC, INDIANAPOLIS Here’s an extraordinary and circuitous story that looks back through the past eight years of developing an Indiana industrial power sweeping business from zero. It’s about a young man with a truly spectacular work ethic and wealth of courage and ingenuity who recognized an opportunity and embarked on his entrepreneurial journey with only a broom and a wheelbarrow!

I started the lot cleaning, and he paid me from petty cash about $120 each week. He had me just sign the back of a cash register receipt as documentation of

the payments I received for the work. I thought, $120 for sweeping up — that’s pretty good! After the initial cleanup, it only took a half-hour or so, or sometimes just 15 to 20 minutes to maintain the parking lot. After about a year or so, the district manager called and said he had to cancel the sweeping. He said, “We love what you do, but the corporate VP wants to try a sweeping company.” Some months later, I got a call from the district manager. He said, “Corporate is coming in. Can you come and get the place looking nice? The other company is doing a bad job.” I was recovering from surgery at the time and couldn’t do it, so I asked him to let me talk to my two sons and wife about doing it. My sons were like 10 and 8 years old then. I told him it would be $350 to clean it up because it was a mess. So, my wife and sons cleaned it up, while I leaned on a shopping cart and, with my OCD, pointed out areas that needed more attention.

My wife and kids and I then began going around on Saturday evenings and cleaning up. I’m ex-military (Navy), so meticulous work is my thing, plus there’s a little OCD. On Monday morning, I was at my regular job and got a call from the VP of operations.

He said, “I don’t need 30 days. I’m giving you all the stores I’ve got, which were 13 or 14 Aldi stores. So, I was working those, and the kids helped sometimes. I maybe had 95 man-hours total per month and was making well over $50k. After being on Workers’ Comp through the recovery I mentioned earlier, I went back to work at my regular job.

came in. Even now, competitors in our market will do free sweeps for a month, then cut your price in half. There other guys who buy these $10,000 used sweepers and go out and clean a Walmart for $30. I can’t compete with that. But already back in 2008, I’d started noticing there’s got to be other ways to make some money. I was again reading my Bible, and I believe God impressed on me to get into construction sweeping. Banks weren’t loaning out money. But, I have good credit and the company has good credit. So, I started looking into the mechanical sweepers. LEARNING THE INDUSTRY INS AND OUTS

I had logged a good 20- to 30,000 hours in trucks over the years, and I just kept thinking the prices in parking lots were not making any money.

to get into the sweeping industry, you need to sit in the sweeper and drive it for a couple of weeks, not just ride with somebody — but get in it and drive it yourself. Lots of guys have more money than knowledge. That’s the biggest thing. Learn whatever business you’re going into. If you’re thinking about going into business, first figure out what it is you like to do. Many people don’t really know what they want to do. I was one of those too.
