hi sarah
u are responsible for holiday pay when u take on staff.... 4 weeks paid by law... so if ur cleaner does an hour a day, 5 times a week, then they are entitle to 20 hrs paid a year..
profit margines.... i normally make 50 - 60% but thats with contract work, i don't do domestic but a frend of mine has a domestic cleaning business which turns over 480k a year and he makes the same markup as me... but there work is 5star... they even leave a compliment bag when they finish there cleans... quality of service but they charge more than £15 per hour...
have u tried estate agents and letting agents ect... thats where there work is
