Employee issues, contracts, bidding house cleaning, buying carpet cleaning equipment and MORE

February 18, 2018 by Tom Watson

Being in business for such a long time meant I learned a lot about a variety of different topics.

And much of what I did learn, I learned the HARD WAY. The up-side to learning things that way is they SINK IN.

So to spare you the same fate, I dug up a selection of past posts that will help guide you through the mind field of running a cleaning business. In no particular order I’ll chat about employees not showing up, building a contract, bidding a house cleaning gig, how people screw up their marketing efforts, items that get you done faster, carpet cleaning machines and how to get a bunch FREEBIES to help you run your business!

Employee didn’t show up. What do you do?

FREEBIES (flyers, employment forms and other stuff) to help you get started
