A little life and business update from me. 😊
Many of you know me through Crystal Clean Oven Services, which I’ve proudly run for many years across Alresford, the surrounding villages and Herts, Beds & Bucks!
Firstly, don’t worry, I’m not hanging up my oven gloves just yet! 🧽
I will still be cleaning ovens, but over the coming months and years I’ll gradually be reducing the number I do.
The reality is that oven cleaning is hard physical work, and whilst I still enjoy helping my lovely customers, I’ve been looking at what I want the next chapter of my working life to look like.
Many of you will also know that I’ve been involved in the travel industry for the last few years. Recently, I’ve moved away from the traditional travel agent model and into something that makes much more sense to me personally: a travel membership called Travel Advantage.
Think Netflix, Amazon Prime or a gym membership, but for travel.
Members pay a subscription and gain access to travel savings, hotel discounts, travel credits and other lifestyle benefits designed to help them get more value from the trips they were planning to take anyway.
What attracted me was its simplicity. People don’t need to become travel agents. They can simply use the membership to travel smarter and save money on their own holidays.
For me, it feels like a much better fit for where I am in life and where I want my future to go.
So yes, you’ll still see me cleaning ovens around Alresford, but you’ll also see me talking a lot more about travel and helping people discover a different way to travel.
As always, thank you for supporting me and my little businesses over the years. It genuinely means the world. 🧡
If you’re curious about the travel membership and why I’ve made the change, feel free to drop me a message.
