What is the situation? What challenges exist? What opportunities exist? What is the problem? Is there a problem? Is it worth solving?
InterClean is going through some major changes. The company was switching its business approach from product-based selling to solution-based selling. The company has an opportunity to become a pioneer by integrating a full-range service with its products instead of just selling cleaning and sanitation supplies. InterClean can be the first to do this so it will be a great move for InterClean as it will secure, if not dominate, a huge market share.
