My best friend Sara called me today asking questions about my cleaning business. She wanted to know if I clean more homes than apartments. I told her that I had not thought of the type of dwelling I mostly clean and that it was a good question. Then I asked her why she wanted to know, she told me she was writing an article for the living section of our local newspaper and housekeeping was a part of her article. I then told her how my business works, how many clients I have, and how I have managed to keep my business thriving through the tough economic times.
