Need A Maid?

Need A Maid? was formerly known as Blue Bird Cleaning Services and was founded in 1979. The owner of the company, Ginger Howard, acquired the company in 1988. The name of the company started out almost as a joke when Ginger placed an ad in a local newspaper asking readers if they “Need A Maid?” and the response was tremendous. Today, the Need A Maid? franchise opportunity stands head and shoulders above other cleaning franchise opportunities.

Need A Maid? has developed and tested its business system to near perfection distinguishing them from the competition. In addition, Need A Maid? focuses on residential, commercial and new construction cleaning opportunities allowing for a diversified customer base and maximizing profits. Need A Maid? provides Call Center service to its clients and franchisees alike. Their well trained call center personnel will personally answer all incoming calls.

Need A Maid? provides its franchisees with a high quality professional media package including broadcast, print and radio advertising. Their brand (link?) is an upbeat and very recognizable logo of “bubbles”.

Need A Maid? provides all franchisees with comprehensive training, in all Need A Maid? sales techniques and business management methods, including personnel, office, customer service, computer software, and marketing procedures. Franchisees also receive in-depth, on the job training at selected residential and commercial locations before they open their business, as well as periodic, update training throughout their Need A Maid? career.

Cleaning and building maintenance is one of America's fastest growing industries. It's predicted that commercial and residential cleaning services revenues will increase 5.5 percent per year through 2009, to over $60 billion. What's behind this growth? For one, there is a shift away from do-it-yourself to do-it-for-me, particularly in the residential market. In addition, many businesses are outsourcing their cleaning and maintenance in order to reduce costs.
