FLORENCE, S.C. Since she was a young girl, Danielle McCray knew she wanted to be a service-providing business owner. She had no clue exactly what type of service she would provide.

Now, at age 33, she is the owner of the Cleaning Bouquet, a cleaning company that she started two years ago to serve the Pee Dee area.

After serving eight years in the U.S. Navy as an intelligence specialist, McCray moved on to work in human services with the postal service.

When I was at the postal service, I was sitting behind a cubicle all day, McCray said. I knew that I didnt want to retire sitting behind that desk. Basically, I made a conscious decision to step out on faith.

McCray moved back to Florence, her hometown, from Greensboro, North Carolina.

I moved back here because I knew I would have a little more support from my family, McCray said. And I started the cleaning service, and its been going really well.

If someone would have asked her five years ago about starting a cleaning business, McCray said she would have responded, You are crazy. Im not starting a cleaning company.

But Im glad I did, because I get to meet some really great people, McCray said.

The Cleaning Bouquet did not start out as such, however. Before there was The Cleaning Bouquet, there was ProAlliance Commercial Cleaning. McCray owned that company as well, and it focused primarily on office cleaning. Several of the ProAlliance clients wanted residential cleaning as well.

I guess the stars were not aligned for me to do (commercial cleaning), so I switched it, she said, and Im glad I did.
