Be Prepared with The Startup Checklist

The first thing I do before day-one is walk through the facility with fresh eyes. Every detail matters. Are the closets set up so cleaners can access the most-used supplies immediately? Are bottles labeled? Does the scope of work match the task and frequency schedule? Has someone thought through every detail?

Training Is Critical

Your front-line team is your operation’s backbone. I trained each person on how to use a backpack vacuum, operate an auto scrubber, and navigate the facility efficiently. But they need more than training. They need clear systems and Standard Operating Procedures. Other useful tools are colorized maps, a detailed scope of work, accessible equipment, and confidence that everything is in its place.

When your team shows up and knows exactly what to do, where to go, and what success looks like, magic happens. Remember that the company culture you set and your reputation depends on their success.

Your Checklist is Your Insurance Policy

You need a checklist for every startup. Not just to remember supplies, but to ensure you’ve addressed every detail your client expects. Because if you haven’t thought it through, your client will certainly notice on night one.
