Miraclean was started while I was still in college in an effort to make money throughout the semester, but still spend most of my time focusing on classes. I quickly realized that I could turn this into a full-time gig when it was time for me to graduate and I was making more money than entry-level newspaper jobs were offering me.
My college friends thought it had to be awesome to work for yourself. “What do you mean you have to wake up early and work? You’re the boss, go to work when you feel like going to work,” was usually what they’d say. If only it were that easy.
Since that time, I’ve impressed my friends by keeping Miraclean strong for six years. Most of my friends were offered entry-level positions upon graduating and sure they’ve moved up in the company, transferring to new cities, taking on new responsibilities, but they know where to find me.
My editor in college called me regarding an article she was working on about 10 things you should ask before hiring a cleaning company. “I thought of you, Kristin. You’re my expert!” was her response.
Imagine that. Me. The girl that scrubs other people’s toilet bowls is an expert. I gathered my information and thought you all would like to see the article. So, here is the link. Let me know what you think. What would you add?
