Tips how to earn more money as a maid

Offer additional services

Most people hire maids for basic cleaning tasks, but if you offer additional services such as laundry, grocery shopping, or pet care, you will be able to charge more.

Be efficient

The faster you can work without sacrificing quality, the more money you will make.

Upsell your services

If you have a regular customer who is happy with your work, try upselling them on additional services such as window washing or carpet cleaning.

Offer discounts for referrals

If you do a great job for a customer and they refer you to someone else, offer them a discount on your services as a thank you. This will help you get more business and also save your customers money.

Be on time

This seems like a no brainer, but being on time is key to being a good maid. If you are constantly late, your employer will start to think that you are not reliable.

Be professional

One of the most important things you can do as a maid is act professional at all times. This means no gossiping, no arguing with other employees, and no personal calls during work hours. If you act professional, your employer will start to trust you more and give you more responsibility which could lead to a raise in pay.
