One of our House Cleaning Success Platinum Membership site members is working very hard to grow her house cleaning business. She’s working her way through the growing pains associated with finding workers for her business. Finding good employees and subcontractors is the hardest part of being a business owner. Every business is encumbered with this issue - not just the cleaning industry.
If you’ve been following the news, then you know the economy is not as robust as it was last year. Many people wrongly think starting a house cleaning business at this time is the wrong thing to do.
Most of your customers still need their house cleaned - the kids are still busy and that means mom and dad are still driving them to all their appointments and games. More and more elderly people are unable to clean like they used to and need assistance. And women that are working a full day still don’t have enough time in the week and need help.
I’m beginning to see a shift in residential cleaning on the Internet. People are advertising “how to” eBooks at a ridiculously low rate (scam?) for information I know first hand will not work to build a successful, long-term business.
Do you know if you need a permit in your city to operate your house cleaning business?
Most people start their business and do not realize there are legal requirements to consider. Some start out just to make extra money, then just continue on expanding not realizing they are running an illegal business in the community.
One of our Platinum members posted the results of their new networking strategy to grow their house cleaning business. Not only did this bring in 2 new clients, but they also acquired 17 new prospects. Log in or become a member and find out how they’re using this strategy again in a couple of weeks!
