Let's Talk Software, Folks!

Choosing the right software for your business is like picking the perfect partner – it can make or break you. After countless hours of research, we found our match, and guess what? Everything changed.

What to Look For in Software:

  • Seamless Sync: Automatically connects with Airbnb, VRBO, and Property Management Software.

  • Auto Scheduling: Schedules cleans without a hitch.

  • Cleaner Assignments: Assigns tasks to different cleaners effortlessly.

  • Checklists & Photos: Provides a checklist and lets cleaners upload photos.

  • Real-Time Updates: Keep tabs on each cleaner’s status live.

  • Smart Assignments: Automatically assigns prices, payment totals, and estimated times to jobs.

Life Without Software

Running a business without software is like cramming for an exam with no notes – it’s brutal. Software transforms chaos into clarity. Imagine shifting from a cluttered Google Calendar to a system where cleans pop up automatically. It’s a game-changer.

For those with 1-5 properties, manual scheduling might work. But once you hit double digits, it’s CRAZY. We got our first software at 10 properties. Now with 40, I can't imagine life without it.

When you’re doing everything by hand, mistakes happen. Missed appointments, double bookings, and miscommunications with cleaners become the norm. Software not only streamlines these processes but also reduces human error, saving you time and money.

Our Top Picks:

  • Breezeway: This gem connects to host calendars, assigns cleans, provides checklists, tracks inventory, and more. While it’s nearly perfect, we wish it could invoice hosts and hide cleaner pay from their view. Still, it’s fantastic. Breezeway has a robust mobile app, making it easy for cleaners to check their schedules and update their progress in real-time, even on the go.

  • Resort Cleaning: Though I haven’t personally used it, many expert cleaners swear by it. Resort Cleaning offers similar features to Breezeway, with the added benefit of a user-friendly interface that’s easy for anyone to pick up, no matter their tech-savviness.

  • Booking Koala: Perfect for those not overwhelmed by same-day turns. It’s budget-friendly and lets you create and host your website – a HUGE plus for growing your business. Booking Koala stands out with its customer relationship management (CRM) tools, allowing you to track client interactions and build better relationships.

Why It Matters

The right software doesn’t just save time; it elevates your entire business. With efficient scheduling, you can take on more clients without the headache of logistical nightmares. Plus, having a system that tracks cleaner performance and client satisfaction means you can continually improve your services.
