A friend of mine and I are talking about starting a cleaning business and this book came in handy for us. We know some things about starting a business but this book taught us things we didn't know about. It will show you the pros and cons of owning a cleaning business, what you need in order to start the business, how to get and keep clients, how to self market your business in order to get clients, tips on what you should do when cleaning your client's place, and much more! I bought this book and I'm happy that I did.

OMG! I wish I had read this months ago. This is classic information for the person that want's to start their own business. No matter how big or small. I started in 2015 selling my own private label products on Amazon. I knew there were a few things that I needed to know so I bought into a couple of Amazon training course and learned a lot on how to do this. But those courses really only touch on things to do but not the nitty gritty of it all. Mr Crawford explains in simple terms (and I need simple) what you should do and makes recommendations. Invaluable information here. After you start reading it will be hard to put this down until the end. I should finish this up tonight sometime. I have already implemented a few things. Thank you Mr. Crawford for writing this book.

I do carpets, the couch, doorhandles, flusher on the toilet, baby toys, swing, car seat, kitchen counters, tile, sinks, anything that I could possibly think of! GREAT little machine! add this to your cleaning kit, and you will reduce the amount of chemicals used around your home! which is awesome, especially if you have a baby!
the only thing is that i think mine was missing a piece to connect "Straight shooting" piece (don't know what it's called) but i just let it build up steam and do it that way.

Before reading this book I felt I had a very good understanding of what it takes to start my own business.  The reason I purchased this book is because I believe I can never be too prepared, plus I couldn't argue with the price.  This is simply a great outline of things to consider and information to prepare me for this undertaking.  It's very convenient to be able to access this book on the go, as I plan to refer back to it as needed.  Due to my own knowledge and the knowledge I've gained from this text, I would be very surprised if it didn't pay for itself many times over!

With the recession throwing up so many professionals clutching a redundancy check, this to me is a fantastic place to make an investment! The unglamorous world of cleaning making a spectacular return. But to do that we need the nitty gritty aspects of running a business, and this book has it in spades. It's more than just well-written inspiration, it's a very, very thorough guide. There's so much I got from this, but for now here's two tasters: 1. creating a business that has no products except service and 2. don't employ family and friends. Here's a guy who knows his mops and dusters. If you've got the will and the energy, get the detail and buy this book!

Good for whenever you start on a new job... And even if you've been there for a while. Made me rethink about a lot of things that I hadn't considered much as important (but they are) and situations where having the right knowledge and mindset will definitely help going over them in a way more smoother (and even successful) way. Thanks for spreading the knowledge!

I personally like how the book gives good and easy to understand advice about starting up a business. It's essential to know the ins and outs before you get started in a business and this book will help you with that.  10 Mistakes Startup Businesses Make will teach you how to recognize your "why" in starting a business and how to market yourself with a particular demographic and niche as to what customers you want to attract to your business, so that you can take full advantage of your earning potential and grow your business. Overall I'm very pleased with my purchase of this book and its going to be very helpful to me when I start my business. Thank You Dee Edwards for all the advice, knowledge, and resources you offer in your book!

I have always had a desire to get more into "Green Cleaning." However, as a mother of four, I have often found myself going for the easy way out...thinking that purchased cleaning products were the way to go. After reading this book, I am astonished at how many household items are recommended for safe cleaning. I especially liked the tip of using rubbing alcohol to get hairspray spots of the mirror - with three girls in our home, this is one we will definitely be using! I also liked, the 1/2 vinegar 1/2 water in a spray bottle to get grime off of shower doors. I am excited to start making improvements in my steps to becoming a Green Cleaner...with much thanks to this neat little instruction book! :-)

This book is very complete if you plan to have your own business. I started a micro business and this book offers a lot of informations, how to create your own projects, how to sell, ideas like how can you prepare your workshop. She present histories of sucess entrepreneurs, how to control prices, how to creat a market to sell your candles. Also table measurements, charts, how to test your recipes, etc. So the books is divided in two parts, the first one is "for fun", she teaches you how diversify your product with hundreds of information. The second part is "for profit" how to create projects for profit. The book shows some couple pictures but one of them drop my mouth. It is colored picture showing a candle of a Moai, the stone of Easter Island, it is fantastic work. This book is a very usefull for my business and for this reason I gave him a 5 stars because I consider as investment for my business. Thanks Michelle.
