Residential Cleaning Coffee & Conversation: March
Join ISSA Residential for this interactive Zoom program – Residential Cleaning Coffee & Conversation.
Debbie Sardone will join our March Residential Coffee & Conversation to talk about “The Power Metrics: Demystifying the most important numbers in your business.” Knowing your numbers is critical to growing and sustaining your business so find out which are the most important for you.
These are monthly talks that will bring together our residential cleaning community to talk about crucial issues facing the industry, as well as day-to-day operational and personnel concerns. We all have problems and it’s especially beneficial to talk to someone who is the same boat you are, that has the same experiences as you.
Nonmembers welcome to come and learn more about ISSA Residential membership and our community.
Coffee & Conversation will be the first Thursday of each month at 11:30 am ET / 10:30 am CT.
Have a suggestion for a topic? Email Erin Lasch at [email protected].

Gosia BaranHelping HandsAfter working in the corporate world for a few years, I got laid off a few months after 9/11. Having a 4-month-old son, I chose not to go back to the corporate world but to open my own business. I had the desire of helping people; in the corporate world helping others was not the priority. In November 2001, Helping Hands was born. Today, Helping Hands is stronger than ever, employing 45 cleaning technicians and office staff. We service residential and commercial clients in the Chicagoland area.
