    Excellent work! It's important to keep in mind when starting a cleaning business, you will likely need to build a team to clean different establishments. That is why it's crucial to include background checks as part of your screening process on potential team members.
    Building trust with clients is vital to establish long-lasting relationships, and background checks can help ensure that your business is perceived as trustworthy by your clients. It is important to put in the effort to establish trust with clients before they allow unsupervised access to their office or home.

    Great information! The only piece that was missing for me was calculation of his spreadsheet like showing the viewers how he for example mention the labor chunk of the profit comes out and i would love a breakdown of a example of how making sure your profit margins is correct knowing the numbers to charge like the industry or market is paying so you're not getting fined because your under paying your workers because your contract is with a commercial business and you got to know how much is the rates of the rooms so you know what your to charge properly.... go into more details here that was the only thing that was not discussed into more detail like an example would been helpful because he mentioned he got fined because of the numbers being off he had to pay $1000.00. Now i did hear Mr. Cristobal Mondragon say he hired a CPA but there is software called quick books does he know about this software to being great at managing the books and numbers and taxes? And how much taxes do one pay or have to put aside for a business like this a cleaning service?

    Pay people better and don’t wear them down. Higher pay, shorter hours $30/hour+ take home plus an hour for travel. If they can make what they need in 4-5 hours a day. Say $150 take home. That’s a lot better for retention. Then don’t try to be a multimillionaire off one business. That’s when you’re taking too much from the bottom and abusing people. Put your money into other passive or near passive sources to grow it more. Pay your people well. Don’t take it all at the top. Big key to retention.

      It's a good idea to give them more money for less hours. That way they're not worn out. Or offer them a shorter work week. You'll need more people but I think retention is higher. Most people don't want to clean foever, so I think turnover is gonna be natural. Have a good process for hiring and like he said in the last video, have a great company culture to insentivise retention.

    Everyone is jumping into housekeeping businesses. There won't be enough employees if you all run a business as cleaners. Honestly, not all of you will make it, you have to really like to clean vs getting into it to only just sit behind a desk doing all the paperwork, while others do the labor. This career is a labor of love, community & CONSTANT interaction with those whom you serve. The question is, are you likeable, are you honest, are you really there to help make a difference in others lives, or just take the money & run. Your clients will notice!!! Mine can tell the difference between me & the last company who cleaned, a massive gap. My clients are like long lost families to me, they resonate on the same level as me, they care if Im doing well, as I care for them. My clients are truly the BEST. I'm all day, every day, multi-tasking with them, their lifestyle schedules, conversing with them till the cows come home really. Sometimes I feel like Elvis, & sometimes Santa Claus. Lol. I joke with their kids, their pets come up to me like were old friends, & I've even had lunch &/or dinner with some of my clients. They can't get enough of what I do for them. It's VERY fulfilling & humbling. Massive amounts of GRATEFULNESS. So if you're in it for the wrong reasons, like making a fuckload of money. You won't be successful. You will have losses. You are not in the right mindset to do what is required. Therefore, causing chaos out of the need to survive versus working together. I have 14 clients, and growing (weekly/biwkly). And when I add a couple of employees they will be expected to be at the same level, working as a team who cares as much as I do. It's all about karma. Law of attraction. Divine Time. Not greed & survival mode.
    (No, I don't respond to negative replies. Which means, you don't resonate with this. If you have done the internal work, within yourself, then your outside world will 'project' it. That's the only advice I'll give you.)

    Hello UpFlip. I have sent multiple requests on the course's homepage with some questions I have with no response. I wanted to know if this course gives you full training on how to actually clean and the train employee on how to clean. Also the refund policy on the home page states 30 days no questions however if you click the link for the term it's stating a whole list of items are needed for a refund, please clarify, thank you.

      @elisabethann411 Před rokem +3

      I use Paypal business for customers who want to pay with credit/debit cards. Because it has an invoicing system, some people prefer this for tax write offs etc. The way the system is set up is very quick and easy to use, for both me as the business owner, and the client. They do charge a percentage of every transaction though which I'm not a fan of, but every system that accepts card payments does, that I know of.
      As far as billing, for residential customers, I require payment the same day of services. They can pay me in cash, check or via paypal. If the customer isn't home at the time of services (they normally aren't), I will tell them how much it will cost and they leave the money. If they are paying with a card, I will email them an invoice before leaving the residence and they always pay within a few hours.

      This is a good question and something that I worry about with my own cleaning business. Background checks, comb through their social media accounts if you can to get a decent feel for what kind of person they are, references and also making sure your business is insured and bonded. If a customer has alot of valuables around, something that makes them feel better is knowing that they are fully covered in the event anything is damaged or stolen.

By all means use discretion, if someone's a kleptomaniac that's not a good fit obviously; but consider the circumstances and hire accordingly.
