You know who you are.  Go flip burgers.  They will even take the taxes out for you.

Waldo , do you charge by the room or square footage?
What do you get in your area?

I Run 24 cents per square foot , 10 for protector ( should be higher)
2.00 a step- just went up from 1.25

Today I had 5.5 hours of cleaning ran about 390 somthing . I try to
maintain 75.00 Hour . I get close using those rates.

I'm glad I don't have alot of national franchise price slashers in our area.
although after 23 years I don't pay much attention to everyone else.

Steamer

min. charge is the MINIMUM

I just raised mine to $65 as well

I also raised my residential cleaning price from .25 to .28

there are plenty of lowballers here

but like danmark I don't pay attention to others prices........it's a good way for me to weed out the cheapo's by raising prices and keeping loyal customers.

still gotta work on raising my commercial rates

You have to prove yourself first.... you need a loyal following...

This is clearly a spring special... not low balling RUNNING A SPECIAL to generate calls...

and the truth is not everyone is booking the small call I have some big ones here..

the Job average is 87 dollars... that oks for me....

small business owners think small...I just think
