A Look at Well-Paid Maids by the Numbers

Well-Paid Maids is coming up on five years in business here in the D.C. area.

Founder Aaron Seyedian created the business to prove that companies can pay living wages and be successful — even in traditionally low-paying industries. (Point proved!)

We often highlight important company numbers. For instance, Well-Paid Maids pays employees a starting wage of $22 an hour, provides 22 paids days off per year and pays 100% of employee commuting costs.

But here are some fun numbers you may not have seen… 

  • 25 full-time employees
  • 25 fully vaccinated employees
  • 10,040 homes cleaned
  • 4,417 repeat customers
  • 200 regular customers (approximately)
  • 3,000+ new furry friends made (i.e. homes cleaned with pets)
  • 80 5-star Yelp reviews
  • $1,292,000 and counting in total living wages paid
  • 1,000+ PTO days logged
  • $6 starting wage increase since starting (from $16 to $22 an hour) 

If you’re interested in getting your home professionally cleaned — and want to support a good cause — book a Well-Paid Maids visit online.

Potomac Harmony is Back! Following a gap year of competing, then virtual rehearsals during the pandemic, followed by the well-earned retirement of our long-term director, a year of a director search, Potomac Harmony hit the regional contest stage in Concord, North Carolina in March for the first time since 2018! It was exhilarating, reaffirming, and rewarding!

The chorus hit all of its goals, the biggest of which was to have fun and sing our best on contest stage — we did both! Because we earned a score over 400 points, our new Director, Allison Lynskey, was awarded the Novice Director award, photo above. Additionally, one of our charter members, Jackie Bottash, was nominated for and honored with the Leadership Excellence award. It was a celebratory weekend!

What’s next? So much! We now look forward to upcoming performances, growing our membership, and expanding our musical product with new arrangements and an education component each week. It’s an exciting time to be part of this ever-growing ensemble!
