Frequency Of Cleaning Effects Your Price

WHEN CLEANING HOUSES OR OFFICES
INCREASE OR LOWER YOUR PRICE
BASED ON FREQUENCY


Don't shortchange yourself. Whenever a customer wants you to lower the frequency in which the cleaning takes place, (meaning they want it done 1 time a week instead of 5 times a week)this is always justification for increasing your price for the individual cleaning to be done. Keep that in mind.

The less often you show up to do the cleaning, the more time consuming the
cleaning will be. Sometimes a customer who wants to save money will only
want their home or office cleaned once a week or even once a month.

That is up to them, but it will take you longer to do the job. The cleaning that takes place will require more trash be removed and the restrooms will take longer to clean because they have not been done in a while. So, raise your price for the cleaning whenever someone wants it done less often or you'll wish you had.

EXAMPLE-

If I estimate a job to be cleaned at $90 dollars for an individual cleaning
to be done 5 times a week, but the customer informs me that they only want it done once a month, I would at least double the price and it would be worth every penny!

Also keep in mind that whatever price you agree on with the customer,they are going to expect a good job from you. Make sure you know exactly what they do expect before you give them a price. You don't want to give them a price and then afterwards find out they also expect you to do this and that.
Make sure they look at your service agreement, in the first place, and
you both know what is expected each time you show up to do the job.
