How to build your cleaning business portfolio

If you are already trying to build your cleaning business portfolio, this means that you are very close to starting your house cleaning business.

What you put in your portfolio will be how your client evaluates your skills and experience as a cleaner. So you will include photos, some brochures, flyers, brochures, some letters of recommendation and some testimonials from your previous clients and if applicable some newspaper clippings showing you as a cleaner or your newly formed company. But then the next question is, if you are a new cleaner and your cleaning business startup is not complete yet, how can you get them?

Gathering materials for your portfolio can be a dilemma if you don’t know what to do. Here are some tips on how to get hold of these products, even if you’re just starting out as a cleanser.

Photographs

What you need are photographs of your work. So that doesn’t mean it has to be a client’s home. The important thing is that it is evidence of your work. So you can clean your own house and take some snapshots of it. You can also ask your close friends and family if you can clean their houses, in exchange for permission to take photos of the areas or rooms you serviced and include them in your portfolio. The good news about this strategy is that friends and family are people who are very willing to help you when you start your new business. If there’s anything they can do for your cleaning business, startup stuff and all, they’re definitely happy to do it.

In fact, you can even point out to customers viewing your portfolio that a particular photo is of your own home, where you think certain products are better for cleaning certain things. Actually, this is also cleaning business marketing. If you believe in your own products and services, if it’s good enough for your own home, then people will have more faith in your services as well.

Testimonials

Another cleaning business marketing strategy is to have testimonials or letters of recommendation from clients or those to whom you have provided cleaning services. Just like photos, you can clean the houses of your friends and family in exchange for an honest testimonial. These are customer reviews, on paper. Later you can add new paying customers.

Well, house cleaning business is also a business with growing trends. So keep your portfolio up to date with certificates from workshops and seminars on it too.
