Child Enterpreneur Grows Up, Cleans Up
Business Wire • December 13, 1999
Who knows for sure what happens to the kids who run the neighborhood lemonade stand, rake neighbor's yards, and
wash cars for a small price? Steve Shwetz knows. He was one of them.
He began washing neighbor's cars at the age of 10, and worked his way through college with the car detailing
business he built from scratch. 10 years of experience in a service business taught Steve a lot. He learned how to provide
exceptional customer service, with a very personal touch. He learned how to charge a fair price, and still operate a
profitable business. And most of all, he learned that the demand for such services was tremendous, and growing.
After college Steve decided to pursue the corporate world working for IBM Corporation in various marketing positions and
eventually going into Medical device sales for B. Braun McGaw as a Senior Key Account Manager.
Today he's putting all those lessons to work as the owner/operator of California's first MaidPro office. An
award-winning cleaning company, MaidPro prides itself on providing quality, individualized service with the industry's
best-trained maids.
Steve certainly learned his lessons well. In just 3 months he and his team have rocketed the La Verne office into
position as the fastest growing MaidPro franchise in the country. Currently servicing the communities between Rancho
Cucamonga and Glendora, Chino Hills, Diamond Bar and Walnut. MaidPro of La Verne's success will mean quick expansion
into all of Southern California.
Steve's formula for success is simple. "We provide a valuable service to our customers for a very fair price.
They keep coming back and are referring their friends because we truly deliver great service. We're not happy until our
customers are."
MaidPro was founded in 1991 in Boston, Massachusetts and now services the country coast-to-coast. MaidPro cleans with a
level of professionalism, expertise and caring that is guaranteed to satisfy. They'll vacuum, polish, and scrub their
way through your house. And bathrooms are their specialty!
