When I started virtually all customers paid cash and a few with cheques. I didn't want the aggravation of driving round collecting money (or cheques) from customers that weren't at home during the clean or didn't have any money at the time.


A text or phone call the evening before helped to avoid wasting time collecting as money could be hidden in the usual places for me to pick up during the clean.


It worked well. Anyone wanting to skip would either be dropped or put onto an alternative schedule with a higher price. The last thing I want is to turn up to clean and someone feeling obliged to have the work done even though they don't want it. If the customer isn't enthusiastic about my service, I don't really want them.


Now the payments are done by transfer I still send the reminders. Most appreciate it, some don't need it and I don't bother but it definitely has its advantages.
