VIP Special Services started out as a small window washing route from my apartment in 2004. From there I moved onto houses and other small commercial jobs. Our first big jobs were subcontracting for large Janitorial Companies. Once we established ourselves as a reliable subcontractor the company expanded quickly, so I formed VIP Special Services, LLC on April 12, 2005. VIP is recognized as an SBE by the SBA and VIP is a Certified SDVOSB and HUBZone Business. Our Client base grows a little more every year. Not to say there were not difficulties and challenges along the way, there were plenty, 2009-2012 were particularly challenging, but we stuck with what works and kept moving forward until we persevered. I have been told by my counterparts that my most valuable asset as a company owner and leader, is that I never, ever quit. When things inevitably go wrong, we will find a safe and amicable solution.
