Letter to Prospects
We hope this letter finds you, your family, and your employees safe and healthy. Considering the growing public-health concern about coronavirus (COVID-19), Vanguard’s executive team has worked diligently to research, plan and execute a thoughtful and meaningful approach in dealing with a response to the virus and it’s potential implications to our customers and prospects.
We feel it is our responsibility as a leader in our industry to provide you with the same information we have provided our customers. We care for the well-being of you, your team, patients, students, customer and the general maintenance of your facility and space. Below are some of the best resources we’ve identified from the CDC, WHO and ISSA and John Hopkins on the best information, guidance and best practices to minimize the risk and spread of the virus both in your community, your home and in your facility.

Our team is monitoring this evolving and rather fluid situation and following the guidelines of the CDC, OSHA, WHO, and ISSA. Our leadership team is meeting daily to discuss and assess the social and economic implications of this virus to our customer’s, franchisee’s and our own business. We will continue to communicate what we know and adapt our communication and services to support you during this time. We have accomplished an unbelievable amount in a very short time…

Our Marketing and Business Development Teams are actively researching industries and companies that have been impacted by COVID-19. If you are reading this letter, you are probably in one of these industries and facing many questions and challenges. Vanguard provides commercial janitorial services to over 1400 facilities in Texas and New Mexico and is an established leader in our industry. Our goal in working with prospects is to simply see if or how we might be able to assist you during this challenging time.
In response to COVID-19, our leadership team has spent literally hundreds of hours developing new sanitization services for customers. We have designed a complete solution that can assist your facility both now and into the future, as diseases like the Coronavirus and the Flu stay with us or re-emerge over time.
Vanguard TPS (Touch Point Sanitization) is a direct supplement to your normal daily janitorial services. Our unique TPS is designed around EPA, OSHA, CDC, and ISSA guidelines. We have already implemented these services in over 150 customer facilities in the past month and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive. Now that we have a concrete approach, we are able to offer these services to our prospects.
Currently, we are crucially and proactively meeting with customers and prospects to define short term and long-term plans for their facilities. Employees and customers will be returning to your facilities in the coming weeks and months… and effective services and protections will be considered essential to their physical and emotional well-being. We want to actively be part of that planning process to provide you services that will protect you and your stakeholders.
We are currently scheduling time with both customers and prospects via virtual meetings on our MS Teams platform. The purpose is to simply explore your needs, discuss options, and put together plans and proposals for your consideration. Please contact us (click here) if would like to get a time in the calendar to discuss further.
We wish you, your employees, and your families the very best over the coming weeks and months.
All the best,
The Vanguard Cleaning Team
