I'm first gen American. My family comes from there, but I always represent!

My pleassure!

Thank you so much! My heart is full knowing you took the time to send this beautiful message! Gracias! 😘

My pleasure!

Lets expand on that... It is very possible for a cleaner to get their own leads, however, working for a company like Hostkeyper, our teammates are not looking to start their own business, they are looking for work and we find the work to keep everyone happy and busy.

@@milatheehostkeyper I don't completely disagree but if you're paying them $20 per hour and don't provide any cleaning supplies, it's really more like $18 per hour, and the customer is expecting perfection when they're paying $35 per hour. In addition, they may be driving to multiple locations and not even be getting paid for the time they're driving. It's not great, so many employees in this type of set up will be constantly looking for better pay, resulting in a lot of turnover and low morale. But I don't fault you, a lot of large corporations love this business model. I just strongly believe it's better to love and have a passion for cleaning, go out there and do it, and keep your money, rather than giving half of it to a middleman.

@@weirdarto It would be great if everyone could run their own business and be an entrepreneur but the reality is most people wont. On top of it, running a business is not easy or everyone would be successful doing it. It takes a lot of learning, reading and mentorship to have a successful business and most people are not willing to put in all that work, so the only option is to resort to a job. If you dont control your life someone else will and thats on the individual. On another note I dont deal with high turnover and low morale, Ive done the research to prevent that in my business. I also dont make them drive all over, and our team loves working for us so dont assume all business owners are unfair middle men. At Hostkeyper we ALL feel blessed to have a work.

Yeah, its really crazy. The problem is guests dont want to see a separate price for cleaning, and host interpret that irrationally. Please sent me the link to that video please.

Hi Stephanie, thanks for the question, and who knows, maybe someone else may have the same question... How long do you think it should take and why? Maybe if I understand what you are thinking, I can help you with understanding why it takes 11 hours. Do you think its too short or too long of a time?

A 1 bd 1 bath is approx 500-800 sq ft. A 7 bd home is most likely over 4k! Several bathrooms and large kitchen/ living areas.

Thanks for asking, have you seen my how to price video? th-cam.com/video/bpmoHZirQKw/w-d-xo.html

Oh my, at the time we paid and estimated $15 per hour and I say estimated because they were getting paid per unit. Being that TX min wage is $7.25 then and now (smh) back in 2017 maybe the going rate was $10-$12 per hour for a cleaner so we were paying slightly more.

Haha! My editor is cold blooded lol!

@@milatheehostkeyper for real lol

Awe!! Thank you Omar! I needed that boost of encouragement!! Will do!

Thank you for the comment, I think she is amazing!!!

Good for you! It usually only gets worse from there.

😅

Depends! Sometimes they will lower the cleaning fee if guests do all that, because there's still a lot to be done other than those things. That just helps....however of they're charging a lot and still have you do all that, then idk lol

In our experience we have never had a host ask their guest to do all of this work, and we also dont recommend our host suggest this if they ask. I have also stayed at many airbnbs and never been expected to any of this stuff but I do it anyway because I enjoy living in clean spaces so when I leave its not a big mess.

Depends who we are communicating with... for single home hosts to the company, they can call us or text us and we use Dialpad (currently), For hosts that have more units we do open a slack channel for them. We communicate with our cleaners on Connect Team (link on my channel bio).

Hi! Starting a business is very exciting and nerve wrecking. I am adding new markets and that is also scary, we just have to fight through it. How is the business going so far?

Thank you!

I am glad you liked it! It was a task trying to teach and record and Jay was concerned about being filmed but I had a feeling if we just do it we can help a lot of people and I am very happy to hear the awesome and positive feedback.

Yes claim it! Remember, you dont need need a lot of money to start working and getting your own client, believe in your abilities and you will go further than you could ever imagine.

Me too!!

Thank you so much!
