"Steve --I just wanted to thank you ever so much again for taking the time to speak with me about my growing business. I gained much from the time spent with you on the phone and have lots of fodder for thought.  It's tough starting out and with so much information, mostly misinformation, on the web, I was grateful for your ideas and suggestions.  Again, thanks for all your wonderful support and for having the best cleaning site on the world wide web!" Beth Ford, Fleur-de-Lys, Inc, Greenwood Village, Colorado

"I am so glad I found this website. I am currently with a franchise that charges a lot but doesn't give you a clue on how to start. This is just great. Every time I log on and realize all the information that is available to me, I am in overly excited.  Thank you all so much, now I can start to branch out on my own."  Samantha Samuels, Legacy Cleaning Services,LLC, Mcdonough GA

"Jean - Love the site!!! This is a godsend for someone like me who is new to this business! All the info I need to get started and plenty of support!! Thanks again!! Looking forward to sharing my success with all!!!" Patrick Austin, Austin's Cleaning Service, August GA
