Use the following as a reference if you forgot how your pay is calculated. It may seem a bit confusing at first so please look over the following:

You will be paid either 38%, 40%, or 42% (depending on how many Budgeted/Scheduled Hours you cleaned)
The Budgeted/Schedule Hours are the hours assigned to the job (you might spend less, or more time than the assigned hours, based on your speed and efficiency) and determine your percentage pay for the week, based on how many Budgeted/Scheduled Hours you were assigned/completed. Budgeted hours are calculated based on the average cleaning time for a particular size home and service. The history of the home is taken into account and the time is adjusted for more accuracy.
Most people can finish each job in less time than estimated, if they are efficient and follow the “Speed Cleaning” system. Plus, many of our customer’s tip, so that is additional income to you which usually exceeds more than your gas expense each week.

SAMPLE PAY:

Example 1:

Sample schedule 1st week after training, lighter days at first
If you work a really short day all week, you might only clean 1 job each day.
An average job is approximately $180 and has 3 assigned Budgeted Hours
Therefore, you would drive to 1 job location, spend about 3 hours and go home for the day
If you did that for five days (Monday thru Friday) you would have worked a total of 15 Budgeted Hours which is less than part-time

In this example you would have generated around $900 in sales revenue for a 15 hour week

At 38%, our lowest percentage pay level, your pay would still be: $342
$342 that first week is not bad for less than half a day’s work, but the goal is to get to full time and TOP PAY!

Example 2:

Depending on how you did during week one (quality, speed, dependability) we will give you more jobs, more work
If you worked a longer day for a full week, maybe 2 jobs a day averaging 6 Budgeted/Scheduled Hours per day, you have worked 30 Budgeted Hours in a week, bumping you up to the next percentage level for the whole week!

In this example, you would have generated around $1800 in sales for a 30 hour week

At 40%, our 2nd level percentage pay, your pay would be: $720 for just a 30-hour workweek
So $720 for a 30-hour workweek, but the goal is to get to full-time and TOP PAY!

Example 3:

Depending on how you did during week 2 (quality, speed, dependability) we can give you more jobs, more work
If you worked a longer day for a full week, maybe 2 larger jobs a day averaging 7 Budgeted Hours per day, you have worked 35 Budgeted Hours in a week, bumping you up to the next percentage level for the whole week!

In this example you would have generated around $2100 for a 35 hour week

At 42%, our 3rd level percentage pay, your pay would be: $882 for just a 35-hour work week! Then add in tips and bonuses!

Example 4:

Depending on how you did during week 3 and 4 (quality, speed, dependability) we can give you more jobs, more work
If you worked a longer day for a full week, maybe 2 to 3 larger jobs a day averaging 8 Budgeted Hours per day, you have worked 40 Budgeted Hours in a week, bumping you up to the next percentage level for the whole week!

In this example you would have generated around $240 for a 40 hour week

At 42%, our 3rd level percentage pay, your pay would be: $1008 for a 40-hour workweek
If you had added a couple of extra job hours by doing larger homes your pay could be as much as $1008! Then add in tips and online review bonuses!

You are paid a percentage of each job
The MORE you work, the higher the percentage pay you make for the week!
Give yourself a raise by working complaint-free and efficiently so you will be assigned more jobs and hours!
The more job hours assigned the higher percentage pay you make for the week if completed
The fewer hours you work, the lower percentage pay you’ll make for the week.
