IJCSA Updates & Industry News

    September 17, 2013 - Premium Franchise Brands, the holding company of Maid Right Franchising and Jan-Pro International, announced today that Maid Right Residential Cleaning Franchises have begun offering EnviroShield Disinfectant Cleaning in homes.

    EnviroShield is an exclusive Maid RightBranded Disinfecting System, in which the disinfectant surrounds and clings to surfaces to kill harmful bacteria, including MRSA. The disinfecting agent used in the system meets the required Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) standards and contains no harmful effects. Being environmentally safe, the disinfectant requires no special handling or ventilation. The EnviroShield System achieves 100% disinfection coverage due to the electrically charged spray droplets, which have a force attraction of 75 times that of gravity and cover even hidden areas.

    “EnviroShield uses the most advanced technology available today, combining electrostatically charged particles with the safest and most effective disinfectant, to eliminate harmful microbes such as MRSA and e-Coli in your home,” said Dennis Thompson, Chief Operating Officer of Jan-Pro. “This enables Maid Right to spray kitchen countertops, bathrooms, computer keyboards, children’s toys, and all other areas of your home to provide a microbe-free environment. It even kills mold and eliminates odors at the source.”

    The EnviroShield Disinfecting System was first introduced by Maid Right’s sister company Jan-Pro Commercial Cleaning in 2010.

    When most people think of the term “maid,” cutting edge Silicon Valley startups are probably not the first thing that comes to mind. Indeed, far from standard tech fare, the term most frequently evokes quaint associations: Victorian manors and wealthy turn of the century households.

    But a new Palo Alto-based startup is not only proving that there is plenty of demand for maid and cleaning services, but also that there’s as much demand for productivity tech in this age-old industry as in any other.

    In fact, says ZenMaidco-founder Amar Ghose, maid services are so popular in today’s economy that he decided to create a dedicated management platform specifically for the maid service industry.

    “The idea behind ZenMaid is cutting edge, comprehensive maid software,” says Ghose, a young entrepreneur who previously ran a maid service before transitioning to software. “There’s a lot of cleaning software and business management software out there, but not a whole lot intended specifically for residential maid services. The few that are look like they were developed last century, so my team and I decided to go after this untapped market. My previous experiences also helped a lot.”

    In a bid to avoid pricey hotel rooms, cheating husbands in Manhattan are having affairs in their own apartments and hiring maids to clean up.

    Cleaning firms are reporting a surge in business over the US summer and "quick-hit cleaning" is being offered for as little as $50, the New York Post reports.

    Little Elves New York spokesman David Brugiatelli said as the economy struggled, more men were having illicit liasons in their own homes.

    "We don't ask - we know that we need to check everything: that there is no hair on the floor, in the shower, no hair in the bathtub, no lipstick, nothing there to show that something happened before," Mr Brugiatelli said.

    One philanderer texted the Handybook maid service: "I need to have a cleaning tomorrow, but the timing is critical. Girlfriend coming to stay for a week stay, needs to be cleaned well and any other female evidence needs to be removed (no hairs, make-up smudges, etc.). I can count on someone coming without question though right?"

    According to the New York Post, requests for last-minute jobs focused on the bedroom.

    Better Life Maids has partnered with Review Buzz to create a unique online portal. The Review Buzz system brings together all of Better Life Maids reviews from different platforms like Yelp, Google Places, Facebook and more. The system also has online profiles of team supervisors, and allows clients to "meet" their team virtually before they arrive on their cleaning day.

    Better Life Maids has long been a leader in using innovative technology to help deliver their clients a superior cleaning experience. Some past innovations have included an iPhone checklist completed after each visit, an online scheduling portal available 24 hours per day, and a one-of-a-kind software system that provides clients reminders the day before each visit and much more. The addition of the Review Buzz system is one more step by Better Life Maids to make their clients cleaning experience like nothing else they have seen before.

    "I am really happy to have partnered with Review Buzz," said Matthew Ricketts, the President and Chief Experience Officer of Better Life Maids. "One immediate benefit we have seen is survey response rates. We went from 8% to over 22% in just the first several weeks. This allows us to have more confidence in the sample size and make better business decisions based on the results we receive. Our clients have also really appreciated the email reminders with the link to their team member profiles. It just helps make the service more personal for our clients."

    It helps Better Life Maids stay one step ahead of the competition. Clients feel more comfortable with the service when they know their team and build deeper relationships. They know they have a voice and that Better Life Maids is listening.

    Staff members are engaged by the system as well. They earn reviews through their hard work, but the system allows them to feel more comfortable asking for surveys and reviews as the process is clearly delineated for their clients. When the team members get surveys and reviews, they earn points and rewards, and are placed on a leader board. Great surveys and reviews lead to greater recognition. It is a win win system.

    Does the idea of a sexy female maid fail to cut it? How about paying a man to scrub your filthy abode?

    Chuck Bennet, 31, is turning the maid stereotype onto its head with his cleaning service: “Maid Men.”

    The one-man company is based in Greenpoint in Brooklyn and provides deep cleaning for $25/hour. Its specialties include getting rid of hardened ramen on stovetops and pigeon poo on windows.

    If your house has descended into a pigsty, fear not! “The dirtier the place is, the more I’m into it. People always apologize, but I’m always like, ‘No, you don’t understand. This is what I do,’” Mr. Bennet said.

    Before setting up the business, he honed his trade at Midtown’s Hotel Elysee. A friend of his came up with the company’s name. It’s as appropriate as it’s catchy – scenes from “Mad Men” were filmed at the Elysee.

    Mr. Bennet describes his work as “empowering.” “I worked a desk job for a couple of years, and I couldn’t stand it,” he said. “I would look at a computer all day. It was just not my type of thing.”

    In his downtime, the aspiring rapper swaps his broom for a mic. He’s not the first performer to specialize in cleaning out closets.
