Customer Reviews

Excellent resource

I've read and re-read Bewsey's book, Start and Run a Home Cleaning Business and she's done a fabulous job. There are lots of ideas for people generally in business for themselves working out of their homes. She has great goal-setting questions and really tries to focus the reader on thinking, not just about cleaning homes, but providing a service that clients will call upon again and again. Bewsey has wonderful customer service ideas, marketing and pricing your service. She's done a great job and this book has already become a very usable resource.

Wonderful book to get you started...

This book got me started and is wonderful! For even more information check out the global cleaning association site and housecleaning pro site also google Suze and Ev. I've read it all and these are the best I've found!

Well Written - Very Helpful

This book is very well written and an excellent guide if the reader is looking to build a successful, profitable home cleaning business. Susan Bewsey does a good job of outlining the steps you need to take to get this business off the ground, and to maintain the business. She also gives a good general idea of what all the business involves. As far as holding your hand to go get the license, bonding and insurance...no, she doesn't do that. But she does tell you what you need, and where and who to check with to obtain them, and to get more information on them. After all, different country's, states, and even city's requirements differ. If you're going to make it in a business of your own, you need to be able to do some things for yourself.

Good Book

This is a good book, not too original or with the times though, times are changing fast. I would recommend augmenting it with the Suze and Ev method for starting a cleaning business, which is available online. Google it!

A Training Manager's Review

The book explains, in simple to understand processes, the methods in commencing a small home based business. The concepts are applicable to any service industry. Susan is to be congratulated on taking it the distance she did. We could use more pioneers like her. Well done! ageless to date.
