\"maid<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You\u2019re a maid service owner who is considering between ZenMaid and MaidBooks. We\u2019ve written a quick article on why you should try and use ZenMaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Before anyone gets the idea this is some sort of \u201chate\u201d article, please know we share a great respect for MaidBooks. Their very existence pushes us to be a better company and to serve maid service owners like you better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MaidBooks simply isn\u2019t the best option for residential cleaning companies in the 21st century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately for maid service owners, where MaidBooks falls short in automation and convenience, ZenMaid does it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Check it out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZenMaid \u2013 Built by maid service owners for maid service owners<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ZenMaid was created by Amar Ghose, who previously ran Fast Friendly Spotless in Orange County, CA. Since starting ZenMaid Amar has personally spoken with over 2000 maid service owners like you, and does so daily on the ZenMaid Mastermind <\/a>(a free community for maid service owners like you)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MaidBooks was not created by cleaning industry experts who know your business inside and out. ZenMaid\u2019s team is constantly learning how to run a better maid service so they can help you as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ZenMaid vs MaidBooks \u2013 Whose recommended by the Best in the Cleaning Industry?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

MaidBooks used to be one of the best maid service softwares available and we appreciate them greatly for leading the way in this industry. However, there\u2019s a reason that ZenMaid has been endorsed by virtually every well known cleaning consultant \u2026 and you won\u2019t hear a word about MaidBooks, even from those using it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You may have heard about ZenMaid from Debbie Sardone, Sharon Tinberg, Steve & Jean Hanson, Pam Washington, Mike Campion, Katie Pearse, or Martha Woodward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There\u2019s a very good reason we\u2019re regularly mentioned by these cleaning minds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But wait there\u2019s more!<\/strong><\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Free concierge onboarding so you don\u2019t waste time getting started \u2013 Not offered by MaidBooks<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ZenMaid is the only software for maid services that offers true concierge onboarding. If you\u2019re using MaidBooks or another online system, you can send us your login information and we\u2019ll move as much information over as we can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We understand that getting setup on MaidBooks was probably a nightmare but it\u2019s no problem with ZenMaid. Make your move today and we\u2019ll have you up and running very, very quickly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Actively being improved<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

MaidBooks is no longer actively developing their program and they certainly aren\u2019t doing so for maid services specifically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even if you think MaidBooks is better for your business as is now, it will not be in the very near future because they\u2019ve stopped both development and support. ZenMaid is already easier to use and has more specialized features, plus we\u2019re actively working with every cleaning business consultant to build an even more perfect scheduling solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"maid<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

No outside investors, meaning 100% focus on YOU<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ZenMaid has taken on 0 (zero) outside investment since starting in 2013. The only people we answer to is you, our customers. ZenMaid makes decisions based solely on what\u2019s best for our clients, the 200+ cleaning companies that use us across the Globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Automated Communication with customers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

No matter how you run your maid service, you have to finalize your schedule somewhere or you\u2019d quickly go out of business. And if you do it in the ZenMaid calendar we\u2019ll automatically confirm appointments, remind your customers of their cleanings, follow up after, and reach out automatically if they leave you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MaidBooks might help with one of those, ZenMaid does them all. Automatically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your employees will love the new communication clarity<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At ZenMaid we consistently hear that both cleaners and customers love when a maid service switches from MaidBooks. The convenience the system adds for ALL parties involved is second to none.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Your employees can choose to receive text updates, detailed email work orders, or can login to see their schedules. It\u2019s fully customizable so they only see what you want!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"maid<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Instant Booking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

MaidBooks might be helpful when it comes to managing your cleaning business but ZenMaid is designed to do even more, including to help you market and grow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The ZenMaid Instant Booking form is designed beautifully for your business so you can turn your website visitors into paying, recurring customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reporting<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

While MaidBooks offers reporting, it\u2019s not as specialized for your maid service as ZenMaid\u2019s provided metrics. On the ZenMaid platform you\u2019ll find out first where your leads are coming from and where to invest your marketing dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our specialized reporting breaks down the exact numbers you need to pay attention to DAILY to keep a running, healthy maid service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that we\u2019ll show you how many recurring customers you\u2019re getting, how much they\u2019re paying you, and if they\u2019re leaving you, all built in automatically to ZenMaid. If MaidBooks isn\u2019t easy enough for you to find the information you\u2019ll need then you\u2019ll love our solution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work with experts<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

ZenMaid is run by cleaning industry experts. You know Amar, our CEO, who has both run a cleaning business and consulted with hundreds of maid service owners. Additionally, each of our employees goes through maid service owner trainings from the industry consultants mentioned above.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
