    Thank you for all your great videos. Like you I have had my cleaning business for 25yrs as of this past February. I’ve always done the work by myself. Also I’ve never had to advertise. It’s all been word of mouth. When I started I had another job. I decided to do a little cleaning on the side. Within a few months, I decided to quit my job and just do cleaning. I really enjoy it, but as you well know, it’s work. Take care. Jenny from Prescott Az

And I wonder how much overhead I will need. I am.able to design a website. And then hire a tax professional to take out all required income tax. Talk to someone who already knows what to do.

      It is typical in the cleaning industry to have annual price increases of 2-3% in price. If you've underbid, you may have to take it on a job by job basis and contact each customer to rewrite the terms of your agreement.

    Skipped around a bit throughout the video to see if you talk about anything juicy specific to the house cleaning hospitality industry and was disappointed to see that most/if not all of the advice you've been giving is just very generic, cookie cutter type advice that could be applicable to any business (marketing, hiring employees and/or they are no-call-no-show's, etc). Don't get me wrong, that's all good advice and what not, but I felt like the title was a bit misleading. A more accurate title could've just been "Things You Need to Know Before Starting Your Biz" or something along those lines.
    To give you some pointers on the type of info I'm looking for, would be things such as how in many jurisdictions, you'd be required to undergo a background check during the process of filing your business license if you plan on going into someone's home. If you're looking to do commercial kitchen cleaning, there may be specific licenses/certifications you'd need to have proving that you understand the importance of properly sanitizing working areas and how to clean the hood vent exhaust so the caked on grease/grime won't end up causing a fire, etc.

      Thank you for sharing your perspective. While it may not have been a detailed how-to guide, it aimed to offer starting points and considerations for those mulling over a house cleaning business.
      I have dozens of videos on this channel dedicated to launching and running a successful house cleaning business. They cover topics like licensing, pricing, marketing, and essential tasks. Here's one of many playlists I've got: ua-cam.com/play/PLh1fKdNH3piRSrMeWSpn5WB2ngCmfOgmL.html&si=O4nXCW3uFynIv2nE
