Why Won't my Cleaning Clients Recommend Me?

Why Won't my Cleaning Clients Recommend Me?

Author: Angela Brown July 1, 2019 Duration: 10:33

"Why won't my cleaning clients recommend me? On my neighborhood referral app, there's someone looking for a house cleaner. All my clients have to do is recommend me and they would get a bird dog fee.

I've got the ratings and reviews, the social proof, and the word of mouth marketing - and yet my clients won't recommend me.
Should I offer a bigger referral fee?"

Angela Brown goes into the recommendation process that every cleaner should use.

Today's #AskaHouseCleaner sponsors are #SavvyCleaner (training for house cleaners and maids.) And HouseCleaning360 (a hub connecting homeowners with a maid service.) #Cleaning
