circa 2018. Here’s my top 10 cleans from what feels like ages ago😅😂
I had to take it back for a minute to a simpler time when I really started to get this thing off the ground.
Back when I had my mop, broom and bucket in hand riding the trains & busses. People snickering at me, laughing and making jokes. Im sure they thought I was crazy🤪 & looking back I probably was; s**t still am to this day! I traveled all around the city; going to Staten Island, even New Jersey. Taking greyhound and New Jersey transit!
I’m talking about the time I was traveling didn’t even equate to the $$ I was making.
Back when I was advertising on Craigslist and taking any & EVERY JOB that came my way.
No photos, No questions. If you needed cleaning, I was there! I ran in to all type of obstacles along the way; bug infestations, hoarding situations, people not paying me on time & don’t even ask about my prices back then😌
I was lowballing the hell outta myself because I thought low prices meant more $$.
But I was hungry, I had to EAT. There was no question about HOW I was gonna do it; I just got it done ANY MEANS NECESSARY! Ambition, motivation and being relentless got me to where I am today.
Looking back now, I’m so different. I’ve elevated in ways I don’t think I can even keep up with. Work is slower because I have standards, I got a team to look out for and I don’t just take any client just because there’s a dollar sign attached. I’ve learned lessons along the way; all money ain’t good money; all clients ain’t the client FOR YOUR BUSINESS!
I’ve worked for countless companies who didn’t care about the conditions I was entering or that they even payed me what I was worth. My goal ain’t about just making bread anymore! I got a bigger dream I’m going after now🙏🏿🙌🏿❤️
