From School Holidays to Our Live Webinar!

 As always, it’s been another exciting week at Haus Maids!

This past week, we’ve seen more people download our franchise information pack than in any other week since our relaunch in September, which is really encouraging.

I’ve also had some wonderful conversations with prospective franchisees in Peterborough, York, Truro and Haslemere. It’s always a pleasure speaking with people who are exploring the idea of running their own business, and I’m looking forward to seeing how those conversations develop.

Wednesday evening was another highlight, as I hosted our first live franchise discovery webinar since our relaunch. It was great to be back online talking about our business, and I was delighted to see so many of you joining us!

Of course, I appreciate that Wednesday evening won’t have suited everyone, so we recorded the webinar. You’ll find a link below to watch the full recording on YouTube whenever you like.

And finally, with school half-term upon us, I’ve written an article about something many working parents will recognise: the challenge of juggling work, childcare and school holidays. It’s also an opportunity to explore how owning your own business could give you greater control over your time.

I hope you enjoy this week’s newsletter!

It’s Half-Term Again…. Have You Had to Book the Week Off Work?

For many families across the UK, the October half-term holiday is here. And while the children might be looking forward to a week away from school, for working parents it can mean a familiar juggling act.

Who’s looking after the children? Have you got enough annual leave left? Can the grandparents help? Or is it another week of expensive holiday clubs?

What if you had more control over your working week?

One of the reasons people consider starting their own business is the opportunity to have greater control over how they organise their time.

Imagine being able to take your children out for a few hours during half-term, attend a school event without having to request annual leave, or arrange your working day around family commitments.

That’s one of the lifestyle benefits that owning a business can potentially offer.

At Haus Maids, our franchisees own and manage their own home cleaning businesses. They recruit and manage professional cleaning teams who carry out the work in customers’ homes, rather than spending their own days cleaning.

Of course, running a business comes with responsibilities. Customers still need looking after, employees need supporting and the business needs managing. Particularly in the early stages, building a successful franchise requires considerable time and commitment.

But as a business becomes more established, with a dependable team and good systems in place, there can be greater opportunities to organise your working day around your personal life.

And perhaps that’s something worth thinking about this half-term.

Because sometimes, the biggest benefit of owning your own business isn’t just what you earn. It’s having more say over how you spend your time

Live Our Franchise Webinar – Now Available to Watch!

On Wednesday evening, we hosted our first live Haus Maids franchise discovery webinar in over 15 months, and we were delighted to see such a fantastic turnout!

Hosted by Richard Knight, our Head of Franchising, the webinar gave prospective franchisees an opportunity to discover more about the Haus Maids business and the changes we’ve made to our franchise offering.

During the session, Richard covered how the Haus Maids business model works, what the day-to-day role of a franchise owner involves, and the investment required to get started.

We also explored the training, technology and marketing support available to our franchisees, along with how an established Haus Maids business can develop over time.
