City cleaning - Business idea (need your feedback)

[Trybun]

Hello Fastlaners,

I'm on my way of finding first business that I can do. Since I've been living in eastern Europe, I saw graffiti on buildings my whole life (I live in the capitol city). I believe that there is a significant need for graffiti cleaning companies. Moreover, if I start this business I would find clients easily in the first 48 hours. On the other hand, I don't know how to analyze if this profitable business. For instance the idea from "million dollar weekend" by @noahkagan doesn't apply to it (as far as I am concerned). The main clients would be community cooperatives and some small business and there is no way to analyze it via Google trends or Facebook market. Even though I see a potential of business development in years perspective, I still don't know if it is a fastlane business type. How can I check this idea? Do you have any ways to analyze market? Is asking community cooperatives or small businesses owners at first place a good idea?

I don't understand.

Walk up to a business who is suffering from graffiti and say you will clean up their graffiti problems anytime it appears for $XX/mo, or a one time clean up fee for $XXX.

Find your first customer.

Stop doing all this research.

Or, go to a city municipality and find out how to bid on municipal / government contracts. Offer to clean up all the graffiti in that city for $XX,XXX per year. Repeat every city, county, or township.

Yes, most things can be made Fastlane with leadership and employees.

Also I will note that I love this idea because it poses an immediate problem for property owners, with a clearly defined solution.
