When I started working on Turno, I did my math poorly haha. But after following some of the steps you're highlighting, it turned out to be a very lucrative business! I love cleaning Airbnbs, but you gotta do your math right, that's for sure!
Another great learning experience is just what a needed 🎉 love you're realness and your vibes. It's very inspiring. Great job on showing God's children the ropes IN THE CLEANING WORLD YOU GO GIRL😅 LOL
Great information! I am so happy I came across your channel today. I struggle so much with pricing. Would love to learn more about how you price with linens. I think you touched on that a little bit. I will search for more of your videos on that. Thanks so much for sharing!
Great information witch I will be cleaning my first Airbnb Sunday I own a cleaning business that I do residential and commercial but never done Airbnb before and the funny part is it's 800 square feet. Sweet thanks 😊
Yeah, its really crazy. The problem is guests dont want to see a separate price for cleaning, and host interpret that irrationally. Please sent me the link to that video please.
Can you get into how the price is affected by laundry services? Is it per load or how do you do the math when you are doing 4-5 loads per unit for 3 units
Long story short, you have to charge more for the laundry if you know you cant get it done in the time of the clean. You can always schedule a call with me or get the course coming out May 1st for all the math.
Sometimes check out is at 11. If we’re asked to clean between 11-4 but have let’s say 4 unit cleans that are two or 3 bedroom in size, what’s the best way to handle that in your experience
The most I did in a day was 50 units in a day and half (25) were same day cleans that needed to be done before 11-3. You always have to have a watchful eye on your future cleans. The beginning of that week, plus the time of the year, I saw it coming a week in advance. Have all hands on deck, be ready to go and help and make sure you have a tight operation plan. There are a lot of factors, in days before, we also did not accept bookings we could not cover. Know your capacity.
Hi Mila, let me start off by saying your videos are 🔥🔥🔥 In you paying your staff 60% of the revenue, do you still facilitate them with cleaning supplies and equipment? If not, how much would that change the 60/40 split?
Thank you Brent. I hire 1099, which means they must be prepared and responsible for their own supplies, and they still do very well financially. I have suggestions for them to save money on that front.
@milatheehostkeyper868 I'm glad you explained exactly what 1099 means. I live in the Bahamas, where 1099 doesn't exist. So I really appreciate that. But your videos are truly awesome, and I do plan on checking your course out
@@kayee4134 this is the exact reason we pay per unit (piece rate). My first year I did a lot of cleans so I know how long on average a unit will take, and I pay based on that. For example, we could have a team member clean a 1 bed 1 bath for $50. It takes 1.5 hours to clean, we pay 2 for the things ‘that happen’ or taking longer for a stain on the carpet. Or they could be done in 1.5 hours and the get paid the same and it’s on average $25/hour. If it takes longer, picture proof must be submitted and approved. If they just wanted to take their time, it’s on them and they know that. Of course some people would rather have $75 vs $50 for just 1 extra hour. But the way we do it keeps everyone honest and wanted to get the job done as fast as possible.
If it takes max 2hrs for a 1/1bth why would it take 11 hours for a 7 room house? It doesn't take 2 hours per room but instead the ENTIRE house. I'm just stumped by this. Please follow up because I'm certain I'm just overthinking or misunderstanding. Thank you
Hi Stephanie, thanks for the question, and who knows, maybe someone else may have the same question... How long do you think it should take and why? Maybe if I understand what you are thinking, I can help you with understanding why it takes 11 hours. Do you think its too short or too long of a time?
I am confused here. she stated it would take two cleaners to complete this job since it would take one cleaner eleven hours. she stated the total she made was around 350$. how is that, if she needed two cleaners. It should be double that since each cleaner has to do about five plus hours. can you please explain Mila?
It's 11 man hours, the price doesnt change because there are more people on the job, each cleaners would get a cut of the 11 hours as you stated it would be 5 plus hours per man.
Lets expand on that... It is very possible for a cleaner to get their own leads, however, working for a company like Hostkeyper, our teammates are not looking to start their own business, they are looking for work and we find the work to keep everyone happy and busy.
@@milatheehostkeyper I don't completely disagree but if you're paying them $20 per hour and don't provide any cleaning supplies, it's really more like $18 per hour, and the customer is expecting perfection when they're paying $35 per hour. In addition, they may be driving to multiple locations and not even be getting paid for the time they're driving. It's not great, so many employees in this type of set up will be constantly looking for better pay, resulting in a lot of turnover and low morale. But I don't fault you, a lot of large corporations love this business model. I just strongly believe it's better to love and have a passion for cleaning, go out there and do it, and keep your money, rather than giving half of it to a middleman.
@@weirdarto It would be great if everyone could run their own business and be an entrepreneur but the reality is most people wont. On top of it, running a business is not easy or everyone would be successful doing it. It takes a lot of learning, reading and mentorship to have a successful business and most people are not willing to put in all that work, so the only option is to resort to a job. If you dont control your life someone else will and thats on the individual. On another note I dont deal with high turnover and low morale, Ive done the research to prevent that in my business. I also dont make them drive all over, and our team loves working for us so dont assume all business owners are unfair middle men. At Hostkeyper we ALL feel blessed to have a work.
Great video!! Very informative ❤ I need your help and would love you to be my mentor please . Side note the ending of the video was sending me 😂 beautiful smile tho lol
Good question; the job is 11 man hours, it just means how many hours it takes to accomplish the job. With 2 employees, yes, it will take half the time, but you still have to pay each employee 5.5 hours each, which still costs 11 man hours. So yes, you are charging your client for 11 hours no matter how many people are cleaning it. I hope that answered your question.
The question is not easy to explain in the comments because it depends, what state, how much are the cleaners getting paid, how much you need to cover your operations. I go into detail in the course so that you can come up with a price that is profitable for you. tr.ee/45G_UTgyyx

Great informative video. I saved your business to my list of potential cleaners to use for my ATX airbnb. Keep up the good work!
Would this be arlington or Austin texas?
Very good!
This was great information!!! I loved the way u broke it down both ways. Thank you for sharing!! 🥰
That's wonderful information. Thank you very much and God bless 🙏
You are very welcome, please let me know if you have any questions that need to be answered, I am here to help!
Thank you
Hey do you offer mentorship
I am trying to put something together for a group mentorship program! I am working on it! I just need to find where I can buy more time lol!
Just watched another video BASHING all AirandB's charging any cleaning fee. That was ridiculous. I like your approach!

Hi so between 75 and 90 for one bedroom but how about laundry?
You can include laundry in your service price or you can separate it. Its up to how you decide to run your operation.
It’s $80- 90 for studio and $150 for one bedroom with laundry in hawaii. Laundry and supplies cost more. Also the time to get stains out!
Are you Honduran!!!!?❤
I'm first gen American. My family comes from there, but I always represent!
How would i deal with an air bnb cleaner who purposefully wants to spend extra time cleaning just to get more money ?

A 1 bd 1 bath is approx 500-800 sq ft. A 7 bd home is most likely over 4k! Several bathrooms and large kitchen/ living areas.
@@mirandaandmarissathetwins9091 Yes, that is true.
I am confused here. she stated it would take two cleaners to complete this job since it would take one cleaner eleven hours. she stated the total she made was around 350$. how is that, if she needed two cleaners.

It's 11 man hours, the price doesnt change because there are more people on the job, each cleaners would get a cut of the 11 hours as you stated it would be 5 plus hours per man.
So 120 per cleaner
The host should not stay with any cleaning money . If they charge 200$ they need tonpah that to the cleaner.
Hi Mika. Interested in your course. Are you available to chat?
So your cleaner makes more than you in an Airbnb cleaning?
They do make more money on every clean than we do.
This video also illustrates why cleaners should just work for themselves and keep the profits.
Lets expand on that... It is very possible for a cleaner to get their own leads, however, working for a company like Hostkeyper, our teammates are not looking to start their own business, they are looking for work and we find the work to keep everyone happy and busy.
