You learn to say no to those who don't want to pay your price, just as you say no the house owners who think you are too expensive. I recently had a lady call me to clean a 6 ft long diarrhea stain caused by her elderly mother. She has already tried to clean it and I know what I now have to deal with. When I told her that it would be aprox $200 she nearly had a heart attack. I explained the steps involved and she realized that it is more complicated that someone passing a wand over the stain. She decided that she could live with stain for $200. Chances are she will call around and hire a hack to try it of $69 and it won't come out and she will have wasted her time and money. Matta, condos are all owned and maintained individually. Having said that, when I do highrises, I put a sign up sheet in the lobby offering a 10% discount if I get 3 or more suites in a day. I don't clean them on the same day as I am doing the hallways but set 1 or 2 days aside for the suites. I will sometimes have 6-10 people sign up.
