Northbrook, Ill.—ISSA, the worldwide cleaning industry association, recently launched its Excellent Idea Contest, a competition that seeks the best solutions to common business challenges. The winner will be chosen by Shark Tank host Kevin O’Leary and announced during his ISSA Keynote Address at 1 p.m., Oct. 23, 2015, at ISSA/INTERCLEAN® North America 2015 and the ISSA Convention Seminars, which takes place October 20-23 in Las Vegas, NV.

“Whether cleaning professionals have executed the solution or want to propose it to top management, this is their chance to have a well-known business leader back their best idea and earn them the title of Solution Guru,” explains ISSA Director of Industry Outreach Rosie Rangel. “Solutions can range from staffing issues to customer challenges—and everything in between.
