Maid Service

  Maid Service business.

  Business Overview

  A good-old traditional residential maid service is still a very good business enterprise to set in motion, as there will always be a demand for house cleaning services. Best of all, a maid service can be started for peanuts and requires no special business skills or experience. The equipment needed to operate a maid service is not costly and can be purchased in any local community hardware store. Currently, house cleaning rates are in the range of $12 to $20 per hour, and the enterprising entrepreneur can potentially generate a very good income by hiring experienced house cleaners and paying them on a subcontract basis of 75 percent of the house cleaning contract value. Providing you can keep ten house cleaners working on a full-time basis, this scenario can generate an income in excess of $75,000 per year prior to expenses.
