Now that school’s out, you may find that your
little ones are tracking pluff mud through the
house after days of outdoor play. Perhaps they
have gotten creative with an art project that
proved to be as messy as it was fun. Hosting dinner parties
and out-of-town guests? Whatever your plans are for this
summer, one thing we all can agree on is the importance of
keeping our homes clean, organized and at their absolute
best. Whether you need a little extra help with weekly
upkeep or want to wow company with a home that is just
as inviting as it is tidy, Molly Maid of Greater Charleston
is the one you should enlist. With a reputation of
delivering amazing results, this company proves to always
leave abodes flawless, at a price that won’t hurt your wallet.
“Helping a range of people trade house cleaning time
for other more interesting or important parts of their
lives is really what we’re all about,” said Jennifer Poole,
co-owner of the Mount Pleasant franchise. “Whether it’s
a working mom being able to spend more time with her
family, a retired couple getting another round of golf into
their week or doing anything other than housekeeping,
that’s why we’re here.”
Trustworthy, respectful and dedicated, Molly Maid’s
first priority is customer satisfaction.
“There really isn’t anything magical about house
cleaning, and, in all honesty, the services one company
might provide versus another aren’t all that different,” said
Poole. “What is different, however, is the way we go about
providing the service. We aim to be as flexible as possible,
as communicative as possible, knowing every situation
is unique. We really want to customize what we do to a
specific customer’s needs, work to meet a schedule that
works for them and fits into their financial budget.”
Behind the spotless countertops and gleaming tile
floors, you’ll find a business built on helping others. At
Molly Maid’s core is an altruistic essence dedicated to
helping those who find themselves in potentially dangerous
situations. The Ms. Molly Foundation distributes funds
to different area shelters and organizations dedicated
to aiding in the protection of women throughout the
Lowcountry.
“The Ms. Molly Foundation is an incredibly important
part of who we are as a company,” said Poole. “Domestic
violence disproportionately affects women. Ninety-five
percent of our employees historically are female, and a
huge majority of the customers making a buying decision
are also female.”
Poole and her team have witnessed firsthand the
detrimental effects domestic violence has had on those
within their own community.
“We’ve seen cases over our 12 years in the greater
Charleston area where domestic violence directly impacts
families of both our employees and customers,” said
Poole. “The contributions the foundation receives are able
to benefit our two most important groups of people –
employees and customers.”
So much more than a cleaning company, Molly Maid
serves the community in ways that go beyond streak-free
mirrors and polished tabletops.
“We often hear from customers that they just love
coming home after we’ve cleaned – the smells, the fresh
look of the home,” said Poole. “There is just something
invigorating about knowing someone else spent a couple
hours doing all this, allowing clients to focus on other
parts of their lives.”
