If you're in a fairly affluent area, you need to network. Rich people will not just pluck someone out of the blue without any recommendation from someone they trust. Mingle in your community, attend church and community affairs, get to know people. Then let them know you are available for housekeeping assignments.\n\nOn the Web, you can use free classified ads. Post a link to your site for free where it is allowed (always read the Terms of Use). Examples are:\n\nCraigslist http://www.craigslist.com\nGoogle Base http://base.google.com\nClassifieds for Free http://www.classifiedsforfree.com/...\nText Link Exchange http://www.txtswap.com/\nRecycler.com http://www.recycler.com/\nYahoo Classifieds http://classifieds.yahoo.com/\nUS Free Ads http://www.usfreeads.com/

Consider this. If you are good at being a custodian, why work for someone else. Start your own cleaning business. (Stay in school too!). I own my own cleaning service and work about 50 hours per month and make a full time income. I have a helper but who do you think is making more? I'm sure you are smart enough to figure that one out. \n\nSo maybe you own it to yourself to learn more. After all the big players in this industry started out as a one man show. Click now on my link below and you can decide for yourself.  It's a real business and the money is in the bank.

That is one of those jobs that you get by knowing someone.  Are you sure you want to be a personal assistant? There's a lot of butt kissing and babysitting involved in that kind of job.  People who need, or think they need, personal assistants are usually pretty self-involved and egotistical.  Many are very disorganized and mostly just need someone to keep on top of where they put their car keys.\n\nIf you have good organizational skills, and are a "caretaker type" personality, the best way to get into that kind of work is to put yourself out there in places where there are a lot of extremely wealthy professional people.  Every town has the "see and be seen" bar where all the big timers go after work to bond with other important people.  Grab a professional looking, well spoken, intelligent friend, put on a nice suit, and go out and mingle.  If you don't do the bar thing, volunteer for some charity events.  Muckety mucks love charity events.  You need to meet the "big people".  They will hire you if they like you and think you are competent.  \n\nGood luck.

I would suggest that you start with an Office Job.\nBone up on your Keyboarding, Go to an Occupational school if you have to.  The Office Job doesn't require heavy lifting hor standing on your feet for hours.  If you want to work, you must prepare yourself for employment.  Remember you must have something to offer an employer before you can be hired.  If you are proficient with a Computer and know anything about accounting, that is a plus.\nYou might also try a Real Esate office, they always need someone to answer phones and do light paperwork.\nGood Luck Lady.

You can start your own cleaning service and make all you want, work when you want and go fishing when you want.\n\nIt's a great part time business. I make more working part time at my own cleaning service than I do my day job. Check it out. Besides it may be just the thing for you.

You really need to ask at your local Job Centre (if they are still called that)   Tell them what you would like to do and they should be able to do a search for you and give you all the information you require.\n\nTake a look at this link for Job Centre Plus info.\n\nhttp://www.jobcentreplus.gov.uk/JCP/Customers/Helpwithtraining/index.html

My advice is for you to read more of the business, so you can determine what you think you want and can given your present resources. The book "101 Best Businesses to Start" estimates that first year potential earnings for this business can be $40,000, while startup expenses can be $5,000 or even lower. Industry experts, however, recommend raising $50,000 for a startup capital in order to be able to invest in heavy duty cleaning equipment and have more resources to spend in marketing the business.\n\nYou can start by reading the article "Starting a Janitorial and Cleaning Service Business" at http://www.powerhomebiz.com/vol95/janito... . The article contains information on startup strategies, operational considerations (prices, manpower, finding suppliers), and marketing the business. \n\nFrom the article, here are some tips to help market your business:\n\n1. The first step to marketing your business is deciding who your potential customers are and determining the types of services you could offer. \n\n2. The best way to market this business is through cold calling. Drive through the area to look for newly opened businesses, buildings or facilities. Then introduce yourself to the landlords ­ your potential clients ­ and request for an opportunity to bid on their cleaning contract. \n\n3. Draw up a better and more professional proposal by learning firsthand the needs of the potential customer, as well as the layout of the facility (e.g. type of carpeting, etc.)\n\n4. Networking is another effective strategy to get ahead in the janitorial business. Aside from newly opened buildings, get a list of companies that are downsizing or laying off cleaning staffs.\n\n5. Word of mouth is another effective form of advertising a janitorial service. It can be generated through favorable feedback from your existing clients that will hopefully filter to other building owners or entrepreneurs in your area.\n\n6. If you decide to embark on advertising, you can try placing an ad in newspapers or trade journals in your area. \n\n7. You can also try direct mailing to potential customers, sending them information and brochures about your business.\n\nFor more in-depth information about the business, we have compiled a list of books on the topic and you can either purchase the book or borrow them from your library.

I dont think so really, you could ask your local council about what training courses they offer. They may run cheap adult education classes in the evenings that can train you to be a class room assistant. You could try that first and see whether you seriously want to dot hat job without commiting to unicersity.

Take a job that is below whatever it is you are qualified to do.  McDonald's, 7-11, gas station attendant, pizza delivery, whatever.  There has to be someone out there that will give you some type of job.  Mow lawns in your neighborhood if that's what it takes.

I live in Michigan. For you (because you're younger than sixteen) a place like dairy queen would be good. You'll make $5.15/hr as with any other place and you'll need a work permit from your school signed by your parents. You could look at starting your own business too like a salon or housecleaning business. If you have great parents I'm sure they'll support you.
