Me and my wife own a small residential and commercial cleaning company this advice is so spot on! Stick to your guns on who you want as a customer its so important. I am pretty adamant about the weekly bi weekly its a whole different customer and prevents scheduling nightmares. When choosing who you want make sure if they are a couple that they are both on board with having a cleaning service. If one of them has no interest it will not last. Great video this advice will save you lots of angst!
Thank you SOOO much! And great thought too on a couple needing to be in agreement... so true! I appreciate you!
visited 14 apartment complexes yesterday. Really had to get out of my comfort zone (I'm an introvert). Got one job for sure and very possibly 2 more complexes (with 4-5 more also possible). I felt so discouraged UNTIL I started getting positive feedback. Best advice I have for anyone is to dress sharp and be confident in your abilities when speaking to property managers
Please instruct me on how to land a commercial cleaning job. I think this will become my bread & butter
You're on a roll! If everyone can master what you said there, they'll have no shortage of work EVER! Dress up, be confident, and GET IN FRONT OF PEOPLE! Love it! 🔥
Im 52, out of shape, fat, heavy, joints not the best….boy, cleaning isn’t for wimps.
LOL @@FrankWaltersLovestoteach
The biggest mistake is charging by the hour
It can be! Depends on the client type. I've had many residential clients who hired me simply bc I was the most expensive, and they would say things like... 'We don't care how long it takes or what it costs, just get the job done right.' And in commercial I charge by the job, but my bid is based on my hourly rate, I just don't reveal that. Work the angles! :-)
@@TheProfessionalCleanerThis is good!!💙
I’ll join your thing next month. Starting my cleaning company today. I have an LLC, Gen liability insurance, a W9, and a cleaning checklist.
So far I’m 1 for 1 in talking to a property manager to get business. He wants to pay $5 less than what I want, but I said it was ok bc I don’t yet know what should be charged for apartment make-readies. I asked what his current cleaners charge and he said $95.
I’ve revised my prices to $90 for Studio & 1 beds, and $110 for 2beds & higher.
I used to do make-readies when I was 16 and when I got good, I could do one in under an hour.
Will be nice to learn more professionally from you.
So far a 100% success rate! Keep it going!
that’s amazing, thank you so much for your help.
💕
I definitely can't wait to get more clients
Keep working and they will come!
Good information! I was wondering if you have videos on starting a remote cleaning business and residential versus commercial cleaning remotely?
Yep! Search my channel for 'remote cleaning' and you'll find it. But I do teach a more traditional way to get there. Some coaches are way overselling the ease of a fully remote cleaning biz, and the profit margins are generally REALLY bad. I teach quality over quantity, which is what leads to long term success, and long term happiness as a biz owner. :-)
@@TheProfessionalCleaner OK, I thought Sam may have been overselling the concept of just how simple it can be. Do I get the information from your videos or a site?
@@jerel2119 I have a coaching program which you can learn more about here... www.theprofessionalcleaner.net ... but calls are fully booked this week... we're working to open up more. At the very least I would go sign up for my free newsletter :-)
@@TheProfessionalCleaner thanks!
Can you do a video about the pros and cons of different cleaning jobs? Like maintenance cleanings, deep cleanings and move out cleanings.
I'll add it to the list!
Damn! This video was pretty good!
Only 'pretty good?' LOL jk... thank you for watching! much more to come!
Very good video helpful tips
👍
They say 20% of business go out of business the 1st year how do i prevent this from happening to my cleaning business thank you
Same answer as your question on the other video. That all depends on you. I never care or focus on statistics like that because they are irrelevant to me. If we want to make something work, we will. So if you want to make your cleaning business succeed, and you put in the work, you will. :-)
I’m in my first month and I was wondering if there’s a bidding document and also how do I create a contract?
Hello this is all included in my program, but I don't have these resources for free anywhere. :-) courses.theprofessionalcleaner.net/products/cba
Why uniform, vehicle signs and website is not important? I think it's professional. Is there something I'm missing?
As long as they build trust AND give you a return on your investment, then go for it! But for most, keeping it simple is better. :-)
Could you give an example of how you would ask or find out if they want good enough or perfection?
Yep easy.... "Do you mind me asking what level of service you are looking for? I only ask because some customers want perfection, while others don't. But knowing that will help me calculate your bid." :-)
@@TheProfessionalCleaner
Thank you so much for that fast and helpful reply! ❤️
Is your course applies in UK(London)
Yep! The principles are universal. :-)
What is average cost for equipment to start home cleaning service?
I actually have a video coming soon about this... but I would say for around $1000 you can typically get started... but that includes everything... biz cards, LLC or Sole Prop, GL Insurance, and your basic supplies. Check out my Amazon page for my recs. Really depends on the type of cleaning you're doing. :-) www.amazon.com/shop/theprofessionalcleaner
