L & K Cleaning Services

Description:

How’d the Gallos, owners and operators of this janitorial service, win the most votes? By smart networking and community leadership. They grew an association for people in the cleaning trade by leaps and bounds from 60 members a few years ago to over 5,000 members this year. Needless to say, with that kind of constituency behind you, you’re bound to clean up in the voting competition.
