Ask a House Cleaner

"Cleaning motivation. Where do I find cleaning motivation to clean my space? I don't like housecleaning and I'm wasting time with distractions and dips in my biorhythms."

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says a cleaning routine replaces cleaning motivation. DIY cleaning hacks include having a cleaning caddy, cleaning triggers and then the use of science like Focus@Will.

Today's Ask a House Cleaner sponsors are Savvy Cleaner (Maid service training.) My Cleaning Connection (a resource hub for podcasts to listen to while cleaning.) Savvy Perks (a resource hub of perks for cleaning business owners.) And HouseCleaning360 (where you can find a good house cleaner if you decide you're not up to cleaning yourself.)

"Do I have a bad house cleaner? I called a maid service to come clean my space but I think I got a bad house cleaner. And I don't know how to verify house cleaner training or proper insurance."

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says a bad house cleaner lacks confidence and has no policies. If you ask basic cleaning questions and the maid doesn't have clue you need to find somebody else to clean.

Pro cleaning tips on this cleaning channel are free cleaning advice. And you've got a lousy house cleaner if they don't know the basics.

Moonlighting as a maid while house cleaning is a sticky situation. I get that you are moonlighting while house cleaning because you want to earn more and need extra money.

If you're going to start your own cleaning business as a side job it's best to be upfront. Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says moonlighting is a side hustle. But it can get you fired from your day job or worse if you steal clients.

All the cleaning videos we've done on this cleaning channel "Don't burn bridges."

Today's Ask a House Cleaner sponsors are Savvy Cleaner (house cleaner training.) HouseCleaning360 (a place to find new cleaning clients if you are moonlighting as a maid.) Savvy Perks (An employee perks program for cleaning business owners to create loyalty with employees.) And My Cleaning Connection (A hub to learn more about building a cleaning business.)

"How much to clean 5 rooms?" Don't you hate it when homeowners price shop house cleaning? How much to clean 5 rooms? Can you even give a fair price or a cleaning estimate without knowing more details?

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says when someone asks "How much to clean 5 rooms?" They are asking for a sales pitch. If you give a cleaning quote sight unseen there's no price negotiation. The homeowner can't do a price comparison because they don't know what you offer.

If you're a house cleaner or maid, you're in sales. Start selling.

Customers you can't please. Are they wrecking your business? When you have customers, you can't please sometimes it's just a gap in your work agreement.

There needs to be teamwork between homeowner priorities and the house cleaner priorities. Another reason Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru recommends using worksheets. Customers you can't please activate your satisfaction guarantee which cost you your company profit.

End the relationship with the never happy, nit-picky, high-maintenance customers. Solve the problem or move on.

Delegate housework. It's easier said than done. Lots of homeowners don't know how to delegate housework. So, they micromanage the house cleaner or maid and mismanage their own household chores.

One house cleaning FAQ is "Do I clean my space or do I delegate it?" Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru asks "how much is your time worth?" You may want to take inventory and then delegate housework to a maid service and hire a virtual assistant for other tasks besides cleaning.

"I would never clean house. I just want to grow my cleaning company behind a desk. I'm better than cleaning house. It's not that I'm snobby, anti-team or arrogant, it's just I would never clean house."

Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru warns against the "I don't need to lower myself, I would never clean house" attitude. It's not good for customer service or employee morale.

Do you tell the parents when you're house cleaning and you stumble on candy wrappers or beer cans in the kid's rooms? Do you tell the parents if it's needles, drugs or pornography? The dilemma is where do you draw the line?

And are you a tattletale or a narc if you find stolen goods in a kid's room and you tell the parents?

And if the kid is in trouble do you tell the parents or call the cops? Angela Brown, The House Cleaning Guru says house cleaners learn that confidence is king. There are times to zip it and remain confidential. But there are times you may need to call the authorities.

Today's Ask a House Cleaners sponsors are My Cleaning Connection (a resource hub for cool cleaning stuff.) Savvy Cleaner (house cleaner training.) HouseCleaning360 (Create a business fan page and collect ratings and reviews.) And Savvy Perks (employee perks for small business.)
