Merry Maids

Partner up with a world-renowned domestic cleaning franchise with almost forty years industry experience to give you the recipe for success, support and a head start in your new business adventure.

 

At Merry Maids, we understand the frustrations around wanting to be in business for yourself, but the fears around being in it by yourself can be overwhelming and off-putting.

We help individuals to become successful entrepreneurs through understanding their motivations, concerns and goals in life.

Do any of the below motivations apply to you?

• Looking for more flexibility?
• Hoping to line your own pockets and not someone else’s?
• Aspiring to be your own boss?
• Looking to create a career, not a job?
• Responding to demand?
• Confident that you can do it better?
• You dislike the job or your boss, or both?
• Interested in realising an uncapped earning potential?
• Wanting to benefit from tax relief?
• Desperate to escape the corporate world?
• Desiring to fulfil your ego – Be a Director/Owner/CEO
• Would like to build a family business to hand down to generations to come?

If any apply to you, then your motivations to start your own business are perfectly justified. We have worked with individuals just like you to help make their dreams become a reality. Don’t just take our word for it!

Gina of Merry Maids of Wakefield did it, you can too…

“The stresses and strains of corporate life were taking their toll and I needed to put ‘me’ first. First 7 months completed and I can certainly say I have a far greater work life balance and can always find time during the week to lift my head above water.”

So did Bill Grant of Merry Maids of Inverness…

“I’d been working previously as a jewellery sales rep for a couple of years, selling mostly into gift retail. Travelling throughout UK and Ireland I met many independent retailers, almost all of whom seemed to be happy; one or two were very successful, everyone else seemed to be doing ok, but the key thing was that everyone seemed to be living and working where they wanted to be and were happy. I thought; I want to be in the Highlands of Scotland and I’d like to be happy (I also thought I’d like to be hugely successful too). So now, 25 years and two or three business changes later and into my 11th year of running Merry Maids of Inverness & East Highland, I’m still living happily in The Highlands of Scotland and enjoying the success that happiness brings.”

What is a Merry Maids franchise?

The Merry Maids franchise gives you the perfect opportunity to leave behind the shackles of the corporate 9 – 5 world and become your own boss!

We have a proven business model, established brand and unlimited support on hand to help you every step of the way in your new business.

Merry Maids provide bespoke domestic cleaning services to homes within a pre-designated territory. We use all of our own specialist products and equipment to clean to the highest standard. Our fully trained, professional standard maids are employed by us directly and deliver professional cleaning services weekdays, typically 9:00am – 3:00pm based on the in-home customer quotation completed by you. As a business owner, you will manage your growing domestic cleaning business effectively through the help and support provided by Merry Maids UK.

It’s not all about managing staff either. It’s about building strong relationships with your customers through in-home quotations and quality visits. You are the face of the business and people buy from people!

People need a domestic cleaning service for many reasons. Perhaps they have a young family, ill health, no time or prefer a job professionally done. It’s your job as a business owner to understand your customers’ needs exactly, so that you can provide a personalised service to match. You can really make a difference to someone’s life by the services that your business provides, especially when you provide them well!
