Frequently Asked Questions
General FAQ
We show you exactly how to find work and build a business that fits around the kid’s school hours or any other social commitments you may have and still pay all those bills. If you want more. We will show you how to find work in the evenings as well if that suits you better. Or on weekends.
Then finally once you evolve into the realisation that there is just so much work you can’t keep up. That took me around 6 months. At that point I hired my first team of two people. One person to manage some housekeeping and office cleaning clients for me and one to do the Gardening and lawns.
Indeed, there is more work in the services market than any one person can possibly handle. You will ultimately evolve at your own pace and be ready for us to show you how to find and train multiple teams of people to manage & service multiple clients on your behalf. On multiple sites, all working for you, while they work for themselves. Learn to operate 24/7 x 365 days. There really is that much work.
