Prospect Finder for IT support, cleaning and security firms

Change is when businesses look for a new supplier

Businesses rarely switch IT, cleaning or security suppliers on a quiet Tuesday. They look when something changes: a new company setting up, a move to bigger premises, a jump in headcount, or a new contract that comes with standards to meet. The supplier who turns up at that moment, with a relevant offer, gets a fair hearing. Prospect Finder looks for those moments in your area.

Prospect Finder was built by EdTech Assurance, specialists in education and training, and used first by training providers. It works the same way for IT support, cleaning and security firms: the same daily list, the same checks, set up around your services.

What triggers a need, by service

• IT support. A new company needs email, devices, backups and security from day one. An employer hiring several people needs new accounts and equipment. Firms bidding for some public and larger contracts are asked for a recognised cyber security certification, which many small businesses need help to reach.
• Commercial cleaning and facilities. New premises need a cleaning contract before staff and customers arrive. Nurseries, care homes, food businesses, gyms and clinics need high standards of hygiene every day, and growing offices and warehouses outgrow an occasional clean.
• Security firms. Construction sites, warehouses, retail units and events need guarding, keyholding, alarms or CCTV, especially when they open, expand or stand empty. Licensed officers and a reliable response are what buyers look for.

Public contracts for cleaning, facilities and security are common, so the tenders add-on can be worth it here. Ask us during your sample.

Set up around what you deliver

Tell us your services, the size and type of client you want, and how far you will travel. We set Prospect Finder up around them, and leave out the clients you already serve. Each weekday you get the strongest new prospects, why each fits, the person to contact and a draft email that names one of your services and asks one clear question. You send it from your own mailbox, in your own name.

Why not just buy a list?

A list of local businesses tells you who exists, not who needs you this month or who decides. Prospect Finder puts the reason first, so your first email is about the move, the new team or the new premises, not a generic price list.

What to expect

We do not promise new contracts. We find the organisations most likely to need you now and write the first email; winning the work is down to you. See the prices, read how it works, or ask for a free sample from your own area.
