percentages is the best way to go..... but if you go hourly you have to set time restrictions... or the labour might out weigh the job

TRUE!  Don't want to be on the hook for that.  So, hourly or comission then?  What works for you (since I can't just pay in food)...

Jodi: A person is not considered a sub if you supply the equipment. Laws may very from provience to provience so the definition as to what revenue canada considers may be different out west but I doubt it. To be leagal a sub must register a WSIB that they are self employed or you could very be left on the hook if they do not consider you employee a sub.  I have been threw this. Laws changed regarding subs many years ago.Guitar

Thanks for the input!  I am not from the GTA either ... more west in Calgary but I imagine that we Canuks have a few things in common... eh?

So, how do you both weigh in on the sub vs. employee?

Specifically, since I do own all the equipment, do you have any suggestions?

thanks,
Jodi

Truthfully nothing works...lol

but it all depends on who's equipment it is....

employee GTA average 13% on booked 18% upsell(starter) for an experienced tech 18%book 24%upsell

sub GTA average 35%-45%.... some maybe better at 45% cross the board

 

precentage without time restrictions work best...

 

I think you can get CC'ers on hourly you can pay a novice 7 bucks an hour but it works it's way right up to 25 bucks for a seasoned cleaner

hope that helps

I am new to the carpet cleaning industry and just getting started.  I can't seem to find a lot of information as to how staff get paid.

Personally, from experience in other cleaning fields, I prefer to pay a percentage of each job but I would like to ask for opinions on the subject.

What works and why?
