A Winning Housekeeping Business Formula
Have you ever been praised for your spotless house and household organization skills? If you have been admired by your family and friends, perhaps this is your career calling in life. While no one really voices their ideal job situation as house cleaning employment, there really is no shame in good honest work. If you are teased or are looked down upon by anyone who is less than thrilled with a career in the house cleaning business then you should seriously reevaluate if their association is worth having. Contrary to society’s attitude, the cleaning industry is nothing to turn your nose at because you can make a very good living from it.
In a capitalist society, we offer money for services for the convenience factor or because we dislike doing a certain activity. Well, guess what? Lots of people dislike doing housework and there’s a whole industry dedicated for house cleaning employment. If you think about it, residential cleaning really has the perfect business model. Due to the trust factor involved, if you make a good impression with clients, you will often retain them as repeat customers. The scheduling of when they want you back is pretty routine – either with biweekly light house cleaning or a thorough go-over with a monthly cleaning. You can count on regular paychecks this way. If you want to expand your client base, all you have to do is tell your clients that you’re looking for more house cleaning work and the majority of the clients would be happy to pass your name along to their friends – it gives them some bragging rights too that they have a housekeeper.
So in this cleaning business, you have repeat customers with a growth potential that you don’t even have to market very hard. Seriously, is this a business model that anyone can laugh at? Only those who are very narrow-minded will find fault with this winning business formula.
